spent 3 hours last night searching the web for some DIY for removing the head liner with no success.
i'm thinking about sending it to the dry cleaner , and install it beck after the new top is in.
also, i need to replace those robbers, that attach the liner at the bottom (the ones that have a plastic hook) corners. it lost its elasticity, and cause the hooks to rattle.
can someone tell me the name of these rubber bands so i can Google it?
thanks.

Yes, proud owner of an 02 S!

Unfortunately, I don't have any information on the headliner. My passenger side elastic is missing the hook and I'm going to try to find another way to secure it down. Both of mine have no elasticity anymore as well.

If it were me, I'd leave the headliner in, and just clean it as best you can from there. I wouldn't mess with removing it, dry cleaning, reinstalling, etc..., but I don't know how dirty yours is. It seems like somewhat delicate fabric as well.
