Interior trim panels
1. Screws, bolts, and various types of fasteners and latches are used to secure interior trim panels.
2. Make sure that adjacent panels do not overlap the one to be removed. Usually, panels are removed in a strictly defined order, which becomes quite obvious upon careful inspection.
3. Release all identified fasteners and unscrew the panel mounting screws. If the panel cannot be removed after this, carefully inspect it for hidden fasteners. Fasteners are usually located along the outer edge of the panel. To release the panel, move along its perimeter and carefully pry the edge with a suitable tool, which is usually a fairly large flat-head screwdriver. Be careful not to damage the fasteners. Fasteners that are broken during disassembly must be replaced with new ones during assembly.
Note: In some cases, it is necessary to release the sealing tape running along the panel to remove it.
4. Avoid using excessive force when separating the panel. First make sure that all the provided fasteners are loosened and nothing interferes with removal.
5. Installation is carried out in the reverse order. All fasteners damaged during dismantling must be replaced. To avoid the development of extraneous noise and vibration during movement, ensure that the panel being installed is securely fixed at all fastening points.
Carpeting
1. The passenger compartment floor of a car is usually covered with a single piece of carpet, the edges of which are secured with screws or fasteners similar to those used in decorative trim panels.

2. The procedure for removing the carpet is quite simple, but sometimes requires a significant investment of time due to the need to first dismantle various components that interfere with the procedure, such as seats, the center console, lower seat belt anchors, etc.
Ceiling upholstery
1. The headlining is secured to the roof of the passenger compartment by means of fasteners and can only be removed after preliminary dismantling of various kinds of auxiliary components, such as grab handles, sun visors, windshield and fixed glass of the rear quarter windows, adjacent trim panels, as well as sealing strips of door openings and sunroof.
2. It should be noted that dismantling the ceiling trim requires certain skills from the performer, and therefore, it would be better to entrust the procedure to car service specialists.
