Default Headliner removal

Hi All,

I just got my new headliner kit from eBay for my 2001 XKR Coupe.

Has anyone removed there headliners before? Is there any tricks to be passed on?

The workshop manual tells us to remove the front seats, center stack (j-gate), review mirror etc. Does anyone know what actually needs to be removed to complete this job?

Thanks!!

Just lower the front seats all the way down, that's it.

Since the headliner is out, be sure to put some Dynamat type sound-deading material in. You'll notice the difference right away.
