visors werent too too bad, just kind of a hassle cuz of all the curves. sunroof....ten bolts, a few clips for the electrical stuff, and the whole thing comes out. gotta take out the whole thing if u wanna redo that sliding door

Re: Finished Suede :)

i have a big 1 inch slice in my visor, maybe if it wasnt too hard i might rewrap it. did you take the old cloth off first or just wrap over it?

hey gear, check this out for your visor, page 4, 6th post, 4th picture on the post. looks like he removed the stock material, and rewrapped it with a material of his choosing. looks to me that the visor splits open to rewrap it

with the sunroof and all it took two days, but that includes me going to the store to get paint, painting some of the trim pieces, eating, and waiting for a second set of hands to arrive to reinstall the sunroof. hardest part with the wrinkles was the B pillar and the visors, if u can do those, the rest is a walk in the park
