How do you remove the headlining panel of a Skoda Octavia? Start by removing the side handles of the headlining with a screwdriver. Next, take off the sun visors and the overhead lighting unit located in the panel.

Once all parts are removed, detach the headlining panel around the perimeter of the car's roof. When the panel is free from any clips, you can pull it out of the vehicle.

Clean the entire surface of the car's roof and then prepare to fit the new panel. Secure the panel under the roof and reassemble all previously removed parts.
