How to Replace the Headlining of a Mini Cooper

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

To replace the headlining of the Mini Cooper, first remove all the obstructing pieces that prevent its removal: start by unscrewing the screws that secure the grab handles located above the doors. Once these are removed, unscrew the screws that secure the sun visors, completely removing them as well. By disconnecting the courtesy light units, you will be able to extract the headlining from the car through the boot after opening the tailgate. This way, you can insert the new headlining, securing it properly and reassembling all the parts removed earlier.
