As the title suggests, i need to remove the headliner in the front of my bongo, has anyone done this and is there anything that you would advise on this issue?....I can see roughly where and what i have to unscrew etc..but want to make sure there are no hidden surprises.
I have searched for headliner removal but nothing useful came up.
Many thanks...

Tis me, but I took out the rear, not the front, although that'll be coming out shortly. Basically anything that looks like it's holding up the headlining probably is, but it's complicated by the upper rear air vent ducting coming in from the drivers side, just take it slow & logically & you should be ok, but you'll probably have to take quite a bit out to get it out without damaging it.

not to bad a job,i did mine recently,all side trims,visors out,think the seat belt top mount as well, the worst bit is the rear heater vents,leave them in the headlining as they are mounted with one way push on clips,like a childs trike wheel!! remove everything else then slide the entire headlining to the rear of the motor,this will remove the vents from the ducting.while you are in there tighten the small srews/bolts that fasten the ducting to the roof spar,mine were loose and the tapping was driving me mad.
