Hey everyone

Hope your all well!

Yess its time to fit the roof lining in the car o joy! I have put the topic in the search and basically i amnot looking forward to it

Any tips of hints??

I went and got a black one from mini spares wasnt sure if i wanted a black or white one so opted for black as i though it wouldnt show the marks as much as the car is going to be a track day monster.

Many thanks
Phil

[Jive-ass-Joel]

i've justed ripped my headlining out. maybe i should have left it in! lol

I've saved all the metal rods tho...does anyone know why they have coloured ends, or is that just for fun? lol

It’s because there is a set order they go in the car, but don’t know the exact order off the top of my head.

[jack_marshall]

The rods go in a set order by color.

You can find the order they go in on the "Technical" section of that other website.. err.. whats it called... Minifinity? Or something!

EDIT- Im feeling helpful tonight... here you go.
