Also does anyone have any suggestions regarding adhesive to reattach when im done?
thanks in advance.

spray it with fabric paint, colour choice is endless but black looks awesome  as tom and i both know, how are your red handles holding out tom im thinking of doing my pillars black to match the lining and my grab handles and visors 
did you use flexible paint/vinyl paint on them?

Nope just general car body exterior paint. Lots of coats.
No cracking, no peeling and still very flexible.
Pillars - Make sure the surface is heavily keyed and primed. Otherwise tw paint scratches off easily.

Are you doing the grab handles black? If so pretty sure that QuickSilvers have black handles as standard.

Yeh I have them. Different handles altogether.
Brake cleaner cuts through the glue very well.

i have no knowledge of curtain 'bags but just got the roof lining off and aside from bodging the torx bit on the visor with an allen key, it was fine i think the vinyl spray paint from b&q ought to do it, although one of my mates retrimmed his corsa's roof with an old space invaders bed sheet haha

Only certain multiplexed 206 have these fitted.
GTI 180 has them as standard, later GTI / FAPTASTIC GTI have them, i've seen them on a couple of 206 SE as well.
