Alfie 6 Posted October 8, 2013 Found this in a search. I'm no wiser now though? I'm told I need to remove all/part of it to repair leak in front o/s sunroof drain. Any help greatly appreciated, thanks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Anthony 1,002 Posted October 8, 2013 Non-sunroof headlinings are a bit of a pain to remove intact, as they're well stuck on and all too easy to damage/crease if you try and rush it. Basically, remove all the bits around the edges that secure it (roof console, sun visors, grab handles, A pillers etc), and slowly work your way around seperating it from the roof skin. Factory (vacuum) sunroof headlinings are much easier as they much much less adhesive on them - pretty much just glued to the slider frame. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Alfie 6 Posted October 8, 2013 (edited) Cheer's Anthony, so would the outer edge of the lining just be inside the rubber seals then? I just need to get to the drain pipe that goes down the front o/s door pillar in order to see where the leak is. Terry.
