Does anyone know to to remove the roof rails that are fitted to the ST. I want to wrap mine black. If it's done from the inside out is their any considerations I need to take when removing the roof lining and pillars?

Thanks

But wouldn't it be easier just to get a company to wrap them without taking them off? Unless you are actually using them for a roof rack then they wouldn't get a lot of wear and tear?

For me they don't have functional use. As the boot space is more that adequate for my needs. I do agree they would get battered if used as intended. I mean I could wrap them without taking them off I'd just want the wrap to be tucked under. OCD problems

no there is a gap that allows for a foil to be nicely cut and bend over the edge. just give it experienced person and you'll be good...

I think there is an airbag at the top of the centre pillars, may be a problem.
