I couldn't find a 'How to' on here so here is mine
Part 1 - Removing the Headlining
I bought a spare headlining off Tom (Chippychip123) who also put me in touch with a good site to get all the materials for recovering it - http://www.boyriven.co.uk
I wanted a spare in case things went a bit wrong, but so far so good so hopefully the spare will be up for sale soon if someone else fancies doing this
First job is to remove the sun visors, this is fairly straight forward, pop off the plastic covers carefully to reveal 2 screws -
and just twist the holders 90 degrees and they pull out
There is am electrical clip to undo when you remove the visor fully (for the light) you just pull it through until you see the connector and carefully unclip it. (forgot to take a pic of that will do it tomorrow )
Next job is to remove the door seal and A pillar, both very easy, once the seal is off you can see where you need to apply a little pressure to remove the A pillar trim
Then round to the boot, remove the trim where it meets the roof then you will see 4 little poppers which come out really easily, is you lift the headlining carefully you can see exactly where they are
Then you need to remove the interior light fitting, the clear covers come off easily as anyone who has upgraded the bulbs will know but a small amount of pressure on the central bit of plastic pulls that off then you can get a grip and pull the whole assembly out without any fuss, again there is an electrical connector to disconnect obviously for the lights themselves
There are then just 2 clips holding the headlining up at the front which again come away really easily with a little bit of force. Then you have to be careful as the wiring is attacted to the back of the headling, so that has to be unstuck and 2 more connectors unplugged...
Then lastly you need to unclip the trim of the B pillar (again I forgot to take a pic will add tomorrow) and then carefully remove the headlining from the car...
Tomorrow I shall be covering the headlining and plasti-koting the trim around the lights
I will update with the finished results unless it all goes wrong in which case this thread may disappear
