ok, this is kinda easy... First removed all the pillers. Next go for the sun visors, then the lighting thing. then the 3 clips in back and then the 3 handles... then it should have 6 clips, one behind each piller that hold it in after all the other stuff is removed... need any other help pm/im me.

you have to carefully fold it and the best way is to slide it out the back doors. Fold down both front seats as forward as possible, slowly roll it without creating creases and gently slide it out...

Hmm, I have a headliner with the sunroof cutout too. Do you know where I could get one without it for cheap?

If so, I'll give up my headliner with the sunroof hole.

How did you go about this? Dye or new fabric?

I was thinking about doing this to mine. Where did you get the black suede from? Do local fabric stores carry stuff like that?

I just recently had my headliner done in Black Suede, and I painted my pillars/visors/handles and clips all black to match.

Where did I send it to get this done? Well my shop does it.

We do upholestry/conv. top's/moon/sun roofs and detailing.

The job came out perfect with NO FLAWS. I will have pictures up this saturday in the show & shine section.

PS. Whoever said to FOLD your headliner, I really suggest you DON'T do that, because any mistake and now you have a bent headliner. They are strong, but not that strong.

I got my headliner out my passenger FRONT door without bending it or anything.
