Anyone Remove the ceiling bolster above the Visors
Anyone removed the ceiling bolster that the sunvisors rest against. The material is starting to sag and I'd like to get it recovered. Is this difficult to remove? Thanks in advance.

I can't give an answer, but I'd like to know too. On mine, the material's become unstuck around the courtesy light, and looks to have contracted a bit as well.
Heck, other than that, the sagging headliner in the back (that I just discovered), and the seats, my interior's in pretty good shape.

That part is called a 'top reveal molding'
To remove the top reveal, remove the mirror, the mirror mount, the visors, all their associated hardware and the courtesy light.
Also, remove the metal trim (held on by a lot of little screws) that attaches the vinyl on the reveal to the sunroof opening. There are two metal clips attached to the reveal (it is made from a molded pastboard stuff) that insert into the body on the upper left and right near the curve of the roof. Pull the reveal back and slightly downwards on each side to extract the retaining clips from the body...they are pretty easy to break off but can be reattached with epoxy. If you want more detail, bug leathermang and get him to post a picture of the page from the FSM with the instructions.
