Not sure about everything else but the A pillars are pretty easy to remove. Slide them up along the frame rail and they should come free.

What part of removal are you having trouble with? after you get it dropped, it will come out the pass side door....

Haha I had to figure it out for myself, and then I ended up forgetting what plugged into a couple of scap in connectors in the headliner itself and searched, and this is the only post retgarding headliners from forever ago :/

By the way, if you remove bolts from basically anything plastic on the headliner itself, some are hidden by plastic snap release machanisms, and there are also screws in the visors holding it in I believe, and of course the handles, there's bolts hidden in the light, you need to remove the pillars in between dash and headliner and the back seat and headliner too I think, or it just makes it a lot easier.

That was helping anyone else who might have searched and only saw this but wanted to remove headliner.

To remove the sliding door that covers the sunroof, the way I did it but I'm not sure if it's correct was I bent the plastic tabs that were resting on the rail, derailed the sliding door and it dropped a little bit, then I opened sunroof all the way, and then basically pulled it out which felt kind of iffy, but the door is made out of metal so you know, and if you are cleaning, the plastic handle can be popped out with a small screwdriver that moves locking tabs. I didn't want to force anything, but I didn't see any other easier way since it looks like the frame surrounding the motor structure for the sunroof is TAC welded to the frame of the car itself, it seemed the easiest option.


Oh yeah, and how much better you guys think my $50 creigslist wheels make my ride look better over stock? happy

The headliner fabric on the sunroof sliding panel is sagging pretty bad and I was wondering if there's a way to take off the sliding panel without removing the headliner.

This is what I got going on: headliner question 20120606081740

albertj, do you have any idea of how much it costs or how difficult it is to recover a headliner? Mine is disgustingly dirty (like most everything else in the car), and i just want it to be black instead of tan. Im either going to recover it, or paint it.

Recommendations?
