How do you replace the headlining on a Mini Cooper?

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

In order to replace the sky on the Mini Cooper, you must first of all remove all those bulky pieces that prevent it from being removed: therefore you will first have to start by unscrewing the screws that fix the side handles above the doors. Once these have been removed, you will have to unscrew the screws that fix the sun panels, removing them completely too. By also unhooking the ceiling lights of the courtesy lights, it will be possible to extract the roof lining from the car from the luggage compartment, after having opened the tailgate. In this way it will be possible to insert the new ceiling, fixing it appropriately and assembling all the parts previously removed.
