the entire top panel that is considered your headliner comes out a just one huge piece. You need to take out all the pillars, take off all the molding around the doors and sunroof, if you have one, and then there are some screws that hold the visors on and the lights up top just have 2 bolts holding them up. Very simple to remove, took me about 10 minutes with one of my friends helping me. Also it came right out the door, took some work, but it came right out.

Chris is always doing new things, and learning new stuff. Every time we're together, he's telling me about something new that he wants to do, or try. It's cool. You guys need to be more creative! (including myself... too bad he steals all my ideas grrrr)

yeah a lot of people i talk with are having to go thru the same thing you are talking about. Also a lot of them to have access to a nice shop to lay there pieces out and have a heater on to at least keep the work area at a decent 70 degrees.
