Hello , can someone help and tell me how to remove a headliner on my fiat 500 , I want to reupholster it and also get to the sun roof blind and change it , mine is bad condition fabric . A link to a tutorial or instructions would be fab as I have no idea and I’ve searched everywhere!! Thank you ? ?

500.. 2 door or 500large 4door ?

It’s a 500 lounge 2 door ...

Probably been covered before in the 500 section

It is basically held in by all the fittings.

You need to remove the interior lamp, and its surround, both sun visors, the handles above the doors, or blanking plates, and whatever is above the rear side windows. There are probably some buttons along the back edge. These need care and swearing to remove, a warm day helps.

It may sit behind some of the side trims on the pillars, so they may need removal too.

Once all that lot is off, and the tears are dry, the roofliner should drop down. It may however have some glue spots on it, so some gentle easing may be required. If you bend/kink the fibreboard, repairing that will be very difficult.

Then you manoeuvre it out of the rear hatch, and try to carry it without it folding in half, while wondering where to put it. Clear a space somewhere first. If you intend to play with glue on the lounge floor, might need a groundsheet to avoid a divorce.

Thank you and I Love that your anticipating my tears , I imagine it’s very true ! I have just finished refurbishing my alloys and I never want to do it again ?

It’s out ! Relatively easy in the end , just dreading putting it back in ?

You have to hold it up with your head, while putting in one or two fixings either side. Or have help.
