You might aswell if you have to take it off! Image I left mine in when I did it, might be better to trim it if your taking it completely out.

If you put it face down, you can unclip everything from the back. It's basically all push fit clips with a couple of screws each side for the lower part. You sort of have to pry the clips apart with a screwdriver while pulling from the other side it took me 10 mins tops. The lower grills just pop out. If you have any trouble let me know and I'll send you some more pics. Good luck 🖒

You should be fine they are pretty flexible, just place it on a couple of dust sheets so you don't damage the paint.

Sprayed the last few bits and dyed the headlining black with material dye (needs one more coat once dried properly). Just need to get some touran door cards and centre console and the front is done. Time to start the build in the back ImageImageImageImageImageImageImageImageImageImageImage

Looks awesome mate. I'm looking to do the same with mine. What primer and spray paint did you use - how close to the rest is it?
Cheers.

I used a paint for rigid plastic that required no primer. There is a pic of the can somewhere towards the beginning of the thread as can't remember what it's called now lol.
