How hard is it to get the headliner off, also is the moonroof shade a separate piece?

It looks like you have to unsnap some side panels pieces to get it out?

 

Its not hard at all. The moon rood panel is separate from the headliner but the interior seal that goes around it has to come off in order to get the headliner out. You have to remove both sunvisors, rear view mirror, oh **** handle, cloths hanger behind drivers seat, both A-pillars, and b/c pillars, and rear window trim also the dome light and if you have it there is a fastener behind the dome light and it will come right out. Just be careful getting it out of the car not to break it its very fragile and will bend and break easily. Hope this helps.

 

It's not hard. Just tedious.

 

You have to pull everything off the roof of the car (lights, hooks, plugs) in addition to all of the plastic pillars, mirrors, seat belts (just the top bolt of course).

The sunroof needs to be dropped in order to access the sun roof cover.

 

First result on Google.
