It a very short thread, don't miss......make sure you wrap that screwdriver with some clean cloth or tape. If not you will have the possibility of jacking up your headliner.

 

woo, thanks, I have finally made it. That's made my changing way more faster and easier. Thanks

 

You welcome.......the hard part is those clips!
If you don't know that they are there(or where they are)..............makes it a lot tougher heh?

 

I just yanked on mine and the metal retainers just slid off the headliner
after i took off the screws ofcourse
