Thanks Phil for the information it sounds easier than I am sure it was. From your comments it sounds like a jod best undertaken with plenty of fresh air.

Thanks for the info Phil

Like you I am not sure if the S1 and S3 replacement is identical, but I would appreciate your methodology for undertaking the task. At least it will give me a starting point if they are not exactly identical.

Hi to everyone

I own a Series 3 E type 2+2 and I would like to know if it is possible to to replace the headlining without removing the front windscreen? If it is possible could you inform me of the procedure.
