At the back it clips in under the rubber boot seal. If you peal it back slightly you'll see, it then goes under the C-pillar. Not sure on front as I haven't had that off.

To remove the roof lining you'll need a heat gun & a scraper. And overally with a hood, it's mainly fibreglass & getting that on you is nasty... Trust me.

Oh! That is not sounding too good.
Yh I've worked with fibreglass before and its not the nicest stuff to play with Sad

Dying it in situ is starting to sound like the plausable option!
Best I get some paper overalls and coverings for the interior Shocked

why dont you try using some fabric spray they do a special kind of spray for fabrics to change the colour i think it would work well as i was thinking of doing this too Very Happy

Haha! - Not far from what I have planned tbh - B&Q do a huge plastic dust sheet, I'll probably use a few of them and a couple of old sheets under them. should be a giggle sliding about on that lot!!

I was thinking of buying a big bottle of fabric dye and then using one of those spray water bottle thingy's. A couple of coats might work ???

might be better to use the plastic sheet underneath some fabric dustsheets, that was when you take it off it wont all run off the plastic onto the seats etc and would be absorbed by the dust sheets instead Razz just a thought!

I am liking the cling film option though!!
I've wrapped a few mates cars at their weddings, an old gag but always a giggle!!

sounds like a plan but the stuff im on about makes it sound more like a spray paint kind of thing but for fabrics and its not too expensive, was just an idea but what you have planned sounds like it would work anyway Very Happy

Didn't know you could get stuff like that, might be easier and cleaner to use. I'll have a google and see whats about. Ta!

Had a butchers on fleabay today and there seems some good stuff on there so I'll probably give it a go some time soon.

Looks like the internal pillar trims will need painting to as I cant seem to find a 3dr 'C' pillar in black and would like them all to match.

Didnt get time to play with the interior as the weather was good so got the external work done Smile
