really easy mate,just take your time cos it can be awkward.

all you need is some spray adhesive(in a can maybe 2 of them) and your material,i used faux suade which i bought from eBay a massive 20m roll which was less than £10 and did all a,b and c pillars while i was there

[Parthiban]

Did you have to take the lining out or did you do it in situ?

[aaronabbott]

took it all out mate much easier than doing things upside down,plus you have to cut holes out for the interior lights and stuff but really easy anyway,a lot easier that i first thought

[Rabster]

dont supose you made a walk through :D i only do electrics lol

[aaronabbott]

Hi mate, i suppose that you would know where the sunroof motor is, right? I need to replace mine as it is busted. How hard it is to remove the roof lining? You reckon that I will need to remove the whole lining or just a part of it. PLease let me know as I AM DESPERATE....Cheers

removing the roof lining is really easy just a few screws under the fixings and by the sun visors then pop out the pillar covers,its easier to remove the passenger seat if your having trouble sliding it out without bending it (i just folded the seat down cos im lazy)

I can't see any on E-bay for that price mate, how much fabric would it take to do the roof and pillars etc ?

Looks really cool mate. Did you take the original lining of and replace it with the new suede look alike or you glued it over it? Really clean job. Well done.
