How to remove the Mini under roof

Model: Mini Mini R52, R50, R53 - Years 2001-2007
Part: Checks and maintenance

Remove the roof panel on a Mini? Let's see all the pieces to be disassembled to remove the cover panel. To disassemble the cover panel, we begin by removing the side handles of the roof with a screwdriver, then, we disassemble the sun visors of the car and the upper lighting system positioned in the panel. We detach the covers on the sides of the uprights. We peel off the sky panel around the perimeter of the car roof, remove it from the inside of the car. Be careful when taking it out of the car as it could break. We replace the panel with a new one or repair the old one.
