Yeah will be doing the other pillars and the headlining as well. Get some pictures up of yours, would be interested to see the parcel shelf. Yeah will let you know when I do the others, the a pillars have airbags in them so think you will have to disconnect the battery so they don't go off in your face.
tbh, my parcel shelf needs re'doing, fabrics ripped on a visit home from IKEA, You can guess why!.
I do have a thread but not up to date :') as for the headlining, think I'm going to just buy a Black Abarth Headlining..easier and wont sag! but then again I might get a proper fabricator to do it for me in the same suede!

Yeah can imagine! You need some updates then pal
, yeah was thinking about trying to find an Abarth headlining but I've got skydome and I think there quite hard to come by so will prob just end up doing it myself.

Yeah I think you can, can defiantly get the evo abarth with it.
I wouldn't have a clue! can't see why not...
example this is for an EVO, http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/FIAT-GRAN...arts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item43adb9dff4
but no skydome :/ ....I guess if you feel confident you could cut it lol?
judging by this pic... you can get them.

Started to do the c pillars tonight, decided to split the main panel from the part where the seatbelt goes in. Makes it so much easier to wrap and then just going to stick them back together when ive done.

How to remove the c pillar-
-Remove parcel shelf.
-Raise rear seat cushion.
-Undo seat belt bolt.
-Release tailgate housing seal in the area of the rear pillar cover.
-Undo the two screws from the bottom of the panel.
-Remove the pillar trim, releasing the inner retainers.

No worries mate, also you don't have to split the panel like i did, just wanted to get a nice edge and the side that they meet.
I think I will see how hard it is to split.. It'd be nice to have the edge.
