How to take out carpet and headliner?

Goin to start sound deadening my car, but the only parts i know how to take off are the doors right now. For the carpet im assuming the seats and center console will need to be removed first. As for headliner i have no clue where to start

Anyone who has done this have any pictures/instructions? i tried searching but i didnt get much luck!

I need to get around doing my doors and my trunk. I did my back seat and rear deck, but couldn't be assed to pull up the carpet. The amount of material needed to really make a serious improvement in ambient noise is to me, prohibitively expensive and way to much work.

If someone did give me a bunch of free sound deadening material, I wouldn't bother doing the roof.

This link should give you enough rope to hang yourself with if you really want to totally strip the interior of your 8. Check file 11.
