Great minds think alike  :signLOL:

Good guide.....only question I have.....is there glue/clips holding the middle up? or does it just drop down?

It just drops down (definitely helps if there are 2 of you doing it)

It fits in, just.... again helps if you have two people. Are you driving far??  :signLOL:

When i picked mine up it was resting on the tops of the chairs and our heads! Just slide it in as if you were going to put in properly. The "wings" will bend slightly (the bits that go around the windows)

Yea its just a card type material underneath. It will bend to a degree but re-forms itself, you shouldnt have to bend if that much to snap it. I got my black roofliner out of a smashed ed30, the passenger door was caved in and the airbags had gone off but it was all fine!

Got the lot.....handles, visors, pillars lights etc :) Mint too......just one part (rear bit) will need replacing due to back end crash.

Bargain too. Just dusty and needs a clean - not stained, scrached or anything.

The C pillar? I just cleaned mine with hot soapy water and rung the cloth out, wiped over a few times and left to air dry. How much you get it for?
