And so it begins...
Zero drama on the actual removal. Maybe two hours working slowly. I removed the front headrests, moved the seats all the way forward, played with the tilt and dropped the seat backs all the way down to get some good clearance. The rear lower seat cushion was already out to pull the door gaskets, so the headliner went right out the back door with just a little bit of wiggling. I discovered the M Sport one is missing the rear retaining clip so yanked it from the old one and am gluing it on overnight. Oh, it's also missing the alarm wiring so I'll swap that out as well. Wasn't expecting that job but pretty minor. Sunroof has been easy so far. Just followed the Lucky Needle's instructions and it's back in place with just a loose fit. Fingers crossed it's easy to center! Will report back with my findings! Last edited by StradaRedlands; Yesterday at 10:59 PM.. |

It'll come out the back door easy, just take your time.
Prost (not my pic, but representative of what I had)!!! |

Replaced the faulty SMC II unit on the right side headlight assembly. No more annoying error light on the console, and she's no longer cross-eyed!
Cheers! |

Quit playing around with that new car and get that done!!! I'm mid-install right now and taking a break (Driver Eight). Slowly coming together! Last edited by StradaRedlands; Today at 11:55 AM.. |

I'm down to sunroof adjust (it's throwing errors) and the visors which I may have messed up. Was trying to remove the ugly warning stickers and now made a horrific mess on :-/ Might have to just paint over the whole thing if I can't get any better than this. Any suggestions?

And yes, the LCI visors flip up to a much better angle, so happy about that bonus!!! I'm just letting them air out, then I'll be done! |

Looks great bro! I got mine out, I had Mrs. 3P hold the back end up while I unclipped it. It slipped out the back door just like you said. Wish I had a snazzy Msport replacement ready to go in, but I don't so mine will take a trip to the upholstery shop on Monday.
