R53 headlining
Discussion
ked mine! Hanging down right across the rear, and the Nearside- any tips or tricks ? I’m sure it’s on YouTube thought I’d ask here first….Headlining isn't a difficult job, just time consuming.
ALL trim etc needs to be removed from around the headliner and it will slide out of the hatch at an angle, treat the removal as a trial for replacement as it obvs doesn't matter if you crease the old but it does on the new.
Top tip to make it easier to get in/out, I removed all seats, just make sure to disconnect the battery first to avoid air bag faults.
You may be able to get the fronts flat enough with the rears removed, I just dropped them all out for ease.
OH, and obviously wear clean gloves!
