Easiest way to get access to roof
OK, I hear you all say..."remove the headliner"

Actually, I'm trying to get just enough access to the inside of the roof on my 110 USW to be able to apply some (very sticky and non-absorbent) sound deadening pads.

Having tried removing the grey plastic circular clips, and nearly gouged the headliner (even using a trim removing tool), I'm hoping to 'be lazy' and remove only enough fasteners to squeeze the sheet in for access.

So, any tips?

Firstly buy some new fir tree clips off eBay, do not go to a dealer as they want a small fortune.
Use clean pinchers to pull the clips, expect to ruin them.also suggest you use gloves or have very clean hands Original Member Pie n Pea Club.
