This will be a long write up I'm at work so bear with me.


So to remove the headliner I followed This Guide
http://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=303463

And it will look like so. Be careful when pulling parts off, make sure your pulling straight out or else you may break some tabs.





One Your roof is free, Lean all Chair all the way back and all the way down. Slide the roof out the front seats, so there's no need to bend the roof liner. (unlike some members from older post has done)

Now the hard daring and risky part. PROCEED AT YOUR OWN RISK

Lay the suede across your roof liner and leave at least 3+ inches on each end so you have room to stretch and pull and room for mistake. Like so



Now Theres No TURNING BACK HERE !

Here's a basic youtube guide


Heres Me Doing It


WORK FROM THE MIDDLE OUT TO ONE SIDE (I worked from middle to back) then middle to front.



The Finish Product Will Take Better Shots Later




Heres a couple night shots later that day, still haven't finished be lazy and putting it off lol, OP FAILS i know



Update 03/23/2012 quick clip of my unfinished interrior




WILL UPDATE LATER WHEN I DEICED WHAT TO DO WITH THE HANGERS/HANDLES

I'm having a feeling this DIY turned out like dog doody and that's why we haven't seen pics yet. Kind of like HPFs single turbo upgrade so far.

I like to give the OP the benefit of the doubt. I'll assume he lives in Narnia and "Later tonight" = 3 Months where he lives.
