How do you remove the headlining on an Opel Astra? Here’s how to proceed. Start by removing the side handles of the headlining with a screwdriver; take off the sun visors and the overhead light fitting located in the panel (if present).

If the car is equipped with a sunroof, open it before removing the panel. Once everything is removed, detach the headlining panel around the perimeter of the car roof.

When the panel is free from clips, you can pull it out of the vehicle. Be careful when removing it as it may break.
