Great idea. Usually when I do this the old ones pop right out after I have new ones in my hand. Works every time!

Besides with new ones in your hand you will see how they are held in there. I just pulled really, really hard and darn near smacked myself in the face when it gave loose.

Going to the dealer for that stuff really isn't too bad. I started with my drag link assembly, and have gone in for little stuff a lot. They end up giving you a little discount on the larger stuff, and it is usually cheaper than ordering form ATB when you figure in shipping.

Plus, you get the part right then!

Painted is the way to go. BUT now that the headliner is down, check your drain tubes and maybe re-caulk around the plastic corners that the drain tubes connect to at the sun roof tray. Now that you know what it takes to remove the headliner i dont think you want to do it again....

Would you post a pic of how your rig looks on the inside with the liner out?

Thanks, James
