take the plastic trim off the ends that the headlining is hiding behind and you'l find it his held in by some glue stuff, gently peel it back coz the lining is easy to rip. the lining around the windows is folded under the rubber surrounds (again be gentle). if you wana take the metal support bars out, push both ends of bar towards each other and the bar should pop out of its support hole. you gota take ya time though. i'd go to a scrapyard and practice first, i went through two headlings before getting one out without without a tear.

good luck mate

Start by taking the boot rubber seal off at the top, then the rest is really self explanatory as you go, I take it you got a guide? Have you thought about fitting it in the door pillar out of sight? I going to but no car and project not need ariel :twisted:.

He means put the ariel in your door pillar, a hidden ariel.
But i put a beesting on my mk3 astra roof and that gots an alright signal so i don't think in the door pillar will work too good.

Sorry no access on weekends!

yeah i meant in the door pillar, just get a good powered ariel, best off going to a radio shop not car shop for good ariels.

And I meant, I aint got a car to try it on, and my project aint gonna have an ariel!
