Default How do I remove the ceiling?

My ceiling completely unglued. I was gonna glue a new piece of fabric on. Anyone has a DIY link? If not, how do I remove my ceiling? I can pry the side pieces off but can not find a way to take them off. Just don't wanna force it so i don't break anything.

Start with the back part. The one that goes from left to right, just behind your headrest. The clips are tight but you probably won't break anything.

Thank you. I did it. Any suggestion on fabric and/or glue that I should consider using? I want it to hold strong and long and not soak through while gluing.

3m makes an uholstery adhesive in a spray can. It's good stuff, but kind of expensive. As for fabric, go to a fabric store and get some suede. Also, get a thin sheet of foam to replace what's on there.

I'm redoing mine as well. Funny! I'm using the 3m adhv spray,but I'm not doing the foam material just spraying the top and making it fit.
I bought some material cloth at the Jo-anne fabrics in red, looks like suede and alcantara
I'm doing mine in red, looks sweet so far, When you pull the pillars it's loud and sounds like you break something but its the metal pins pulling.
