I removed the trim pieces,dome lightand sun visors,laid the seats all the way back and slid it out.I had mine recovered for $25.00 and re-installed it myself.Makes the interior look WAY better.You have to be very careful when marking the holes to cut for re-installing the visors and lights and 3 little hold downs in the back near the window.

removed the tin trim over the doors and front and rear windows, removed rear seat and big quarter pieces, slid bench seat all the way foreward and leaned them foreward (dont recline) and took it out the drivers door, had to bend it a bit but dont fold it in half. Its actually not that hard

If you pull and replace the headliner,you can get it re-covered for cheap.Good luck.

You can recover it yourself....it's not that hard, just take your time and do it right.

I've seen the headliner kits at Autozone for $19.99.It's not hard to do,but,I'd rather have someone do it for me fo a few dollars more.

I did mine myself.  Came out good.  Just gotta re-do the visors (I'm lazy).  I took out all the trim and put the seats down.  Just make sure when you pull all the old material off you do it carefully.
