Hey i have a question... ive never taken down a headliner myself.... what all hold it up... is it just pillar trim and things like any lights or sun visors and o-$hit handles? or are there push pins kinda like what hold on door panels?

if your talking about the pt, there are 14 screws, the pillar trim, and two push pins in the back. 4 screws are star bit(visors), 10 are philips(o sh*t handles) to remove the b and c pillars you have to remove the seat belt anchors. 4 t-47 star bit screws.

it takes about 30 min to take out, and like 1 hour to put back in(by yourself, with help it takes less)

just need a little more sanding and paint. just the weather needs to be a little drier to actually start painting.

yea. it doesnt really stick well to the edges. i just put resin and then body filler on the edges. you cant see 95% of mine so it didnt really matter.
