Headlining you can forget unless you want to break the back glass,its bonded to it.

Helmet Pod - Easy, 1 Wing nut accessible from the boot, above the petrol tank, behind all the electonic xontrol boxes.

Cemtre Console - You mean the thing down the centre that covers the transmission tunnel? Forget removing it, why do you want to remove it? But To get access to the underneath of it, there is 1 small self tapper on the drivers side, right at the bottom edge about level with the handbrale. remove this, remove the helmet pod and you can lift it up from the back.
Rear Parcel shelf -From inside the boot, above the fuel tank, and behind all the control boxes, there are some M6 screws with either wing nuts or nuts on them. remove them and the parcel shelf lifts out.

Really to do the job properly the head lineing needs to come out.I was in the same postion as you when i wanted to re-trim certain parts of the car.On the head lining seeing as its such a bastard job i left it.

if the lining was cut say 50mm from the glass would it not be poss to make the new panel
with a finished edge reinforced with a rod that could be glued in place to the flap of material?

Can someone recommend a place to get all new carpets for the Cerb? Would they fit them for me or is this supply-only?

Prices please? I want nothing fancy... just black.

Thanks.

Thanks airborne.

The website seems to deal only with mats. I'll give them a call obviously because i want all carpets, including those up the sides of the gearbox tunnel and forward of the doors.
