Pre-Req:

You can disconnect your battery now since you will be working by your SRS system, I did not remember this. Nothing bad happened just forgot, but I was careful. Also if you break anything or lose any parts or start this and it’s more of a pain that you thought it’s not my fault, this is not an easy/ fun project. It is messy, time consuming, sticky, nit-picky, and more work than it’s worth, unless you hate tan, I hate tan, so I carry on.

I will be going over some things briefly just hitting the big points, most of this is just labor of pulling / installing panels.

Take Before Pictures:

A-PILLAR:

 

Pull it down from the top enough to create a gap; insert a flat head in and hit the metal clip and push down. It should allow you to pull the trim out and detach the green pop-clip

http://i.imgur.com/8ABTI4B.png

http://i.imgur.com/p9Hf7gH.jpg

 

The OEM fabric pulls off very easy, pull it all off and move on to B-Pillar.

http://i.imgur.com/Z4LZv4M.jpg

B-PILLAR:

Start at the front of the car. Open up the door and look for the lower trim that follows the door/ carpet edge, take all the inside trim off around the doors, also remove weather stripping from doors, keep things organized as you remove them. It took me 2 weeks start to finish don’t want to forget where a piece or screw goes.

http://i.imgur.com/BvvJa0h.jpg

 

http://i.imgur.com/bx0b34e.png

 

After all that is out, you can start on the large bottom piece of the B-Pillar, start at bottom and pull out, see picture for location of green pop-clips, don’t lose 2-4 like I did and had to buy more. Use a needle nose to remove the ones stuck in the car if needed.

 

 

http://i.imgur.com/CKZuL95.jpg

 

Now pop-out SRS cap on top, I just used a micro flat head and pried out.

 

 

http://i.imgur.com/SkVf6Sa.jpg

 

http://i.imgur.com/TtkIv4a.jpg

 

Use a deep well/ socket and extension to remove the 10MM bolt. At this point it is only held on by pop clips, don’t go pulling yet. You need to disconnect the seat belts in order to remove this piece from the vehicle. Use a 14MM socket to remove the drive side belt under the carpet; I had to cut mine back slightly to get the wrench in there. This is where other walkthroughs miss: on the passenger side you will need a Torx 50-Bit to remove the seat belt, unless you feel like cutting more carpet and removing a ton of stuff, but a Torx 50 socket cost me $6 at Home Depot.

That part was a pain for me, grab a beer/soda take a brake and remove the Sun Visors, and OH SH!t handles

http://i.imgur.com/rhJUtna.png

 

http://i.imgur.com/y12D1IQ.png

 

Grab handles are simple, pop off covers unscrew, then use trim remover to pull off.

 

Also you can remove your dome light, and map lights/ sunroof controls. Remember where everything plugs into the back of it. I removed the sunroof buttons for easy of masking, DO NOT try and pop these off, my buddy thought they came off and he broke my OPEN/CLOSE button… going to find one in a junk yard soon, it works it just gets stuck one direction.

http://i.imgur.com/l0LtY47.jpg

 

 

I am going to cut some decals to replace indicators, since I painted these pieces; but that is later on in the walkthrough.

 

Now is also a great time to remove your driver and passenger head rests, you will need the room, I also removed all the headrests from the back seat, just to get them out of the way while removing C-Pillars.

C-PILLAR:

You'll need to remove the rear seat at this point. It’s really easy, mine has been out a couple times for install of sub in trunk.

 

 

 

Feel for clips under front of seat, push them back and pull up hard. Or like I did shove a hand on either side of them and yank up, do this to both sides. Then lift front of seat up until you can slip it off the metal hook on the back.

 

 

http://i.imgur.com/xQChmUo.png

 

Now here Sedan and Wagons will differ, so refer to your assembly instructions if you are unsure. With wagon I think the seats are removed fairly easy. For either, move both driver and passenger seats all the way forward and lean forward for a ton of room in the back. For sedan, you remove the 4x- 12mm bolts at the bottom of the seat back, 2 in the middle and one at each side. Don’t have pictures of these but you can miss them; they are black, with large washers on the big steel brackets.

 

 

Once those are out you need to pull the center armrest out slightly and the little door behind it must be unlatched from the metal hook. Now with the door propped open slightly lift the seats up they are on metal hooks to hold the top to the car you need to only force them up 4-6 inches. Once they are up you can lean them out towards you, don’t try and remove or pull them all the way out, the little door is attached to the carpet at the bottom. I am sure it is easy to disconnect or I did something wrong, but it was just as easy to lean them out while I took the C-Pillars out.

 

 

You can set the seat back and remove the trim that is right against the back window, there is a metal clip holding it in same as A-Pillar you can to pry it out slightly and press it with a flat-head. Then it should be fairly simple to pop the rest of the way off. (see picture for more detail)

 

 

Now you can remove the 3 exposed 10MM screws, on the C-Pillar, then remove the SRS cap and remove the one behind it. While leaning the seat back out the clear the trim, start towards the front of the vehicle pull the trim out with your hands go around the top only for now, there is a PERMANENT metal clip on the bottom. Once the top in done work your way down then once all the clips are detached slide the whole piece down off the metal clip then out. Make sure to not lose the green pop-clips!

 

 

http://i.imgur.com/phPeGDA.png

 

Now onto the hard part!

HEADLINER:

By this point everything that is attached to the headliner should be out, Dome lights, grab handles, sun visors, A/B/C Pillars, Weather stripping around door at least pulled off top of door, driver and passenger headrests, and rubber around sun-roof, if you have one.

 

 

Move the driver and passenger seats all the way forward, and lean them as far forward as they go. Crawl into the back seat positioning yourself under the sun-roof hole. If you don’t have one, good luck this will be a little more difficult. Starting from the back window start pulling it down, only the front and back are held on by some pop-clips. Have a friend/stick support the back of the headliner, move to the front, grab the plastic surrounding the hole where the map lights sit and pull down. The whole headliner should be free now, lower it gently as there is cabling attached to it you don’t want to rip out.

 

 

Take cables out of the while clips around the whole headliner, then start peeling the tap off that holds it in, make sure to get the thin black cable that is glued on the drives side for your rear defrost. It is actually taped and glued under some foam; I peeled the foam up removed tape and yanked cable out. I later glued foam back down and ran the cable just over the foam.

 

 

The headliner should be free at this point. And the fun begins; at this point you’re stuck with a headliner that’s about 2 feet to large for any opening that exits the vehicle. This part took me a while, have someone pull SLOWLY while you lightly bend the sides to squeeze it out helps. We took it out the back passenger door; it is actually fairly flexible, we ended up shoving it into the back window to twist it onto the floor board. Then we rolled the edges in a little and forced it through.

 

 

 

We honestly were not that gentle, it looked like it was creasing/ breaking the fiberglass, but once it was out it sprung back to full size with 0 damage? Just be careful, my GF got impatient and just yanked, and it worked, to get it back in we just bent it and shoved it in took all of 10 min, and it is perfectly fine.

 

 

 

SUNROOF COVER:

This part I had really no instructions on, there is rails that the board slides in, at the back of them, the rubber stopper area; there is a clip on the inside of the rail you have to pop out then you can bend the whole piece down leaving the drain tube attached. This will give you JUST enough room to wiggle the board out the back.

 

 

 

Take the little rubber and plastic pieces off the feet and make sure to put them some place safe, you don’t want glue on there, and you really don’t want to lose them…. Unless you love rattling above your head…

The plastic piece on the board is kind of a pain to remove, cut/ pull the fabric away from the back of the board this will expose little plastic clips; you need to pop these out, they are forced in there and are very tight, be careful. Once they are all popped, push it out all the way, and slide it forward. Here is what the clips look like:

 

 

http://i.imgur.com/hupy4EQ.jpg

 

The sunroof is easiest to recover I thought… remove the OEM fabric, but they glued directly to the board, so there will be thin layer of foam all over the board. I considered just doing fabric over this but some big chunks got ripped out and I knew it would look like crap.

 

 

So I busted out the wire wheel and the drill and got rid of it, this was a pain, and there was foam everywhere, even with ShopVac going the whole time to collect pieces. I ended up clamping mine down to the bench and going to town then rotating it on the clamps. Take your time, this needs to be as clean and even as possible, don’t push too hard and damage the board. I then used some sand paper (80-grit ish, don’t recall) to get the pesky left over stuff.

 

 

 

http://i.imgur.com/vZLLqzU.jpg

 

I then wiped it all down with wax & grease and let it dry.

PAINTING:

 

This is of course optional if you leave the pieces ten that’s up to you, I hated the tan so painting it was.

 

 

I cannot stress enough the need for adhesion promoter, or loads of sanding and great quality plastic primer. Two of my pieces got very messed up in this process and I spent 4-6 hours fixing them, this included Bondo and filling sandable primer, and an extra $40 for these items. A can of $10 plastic adhesion promoter and proper painting techniques will save you. I did not take pics of damage because I was not very happy to say the least. There must be something in the plastic on Subaru’s that doesn’t like Acetone, even with 2X being made for plastics, the pieces ended up failing and bubbling, lucky I was only 2 in.

 

 

Clean every plastic extremely well with wax & grease remover, and then lightly sand with 600-800 the flat parts if you wish (I would). Then spray on adhesion promoter per the instructions, allow drying and bonding per the instructions. Then top coat with color choice per the instructions, I may clear coat a few more used pieces like sunroof handle, for now I just painted.

 

 

Grab handles, and other pieces; on the grab handles spring side I put a piece of strong wire in there to hold it open whilst painting; I’m sure a toothpick would work. I recommend you both sand these down with 600-800grit

 

sand paper and degrease the heck out of them; since they will be used a lot while you’re drifting around and picking up babes

Sun Visors: I really wasn’t sure what to do here; they are impossible to re-cover, and have plastic bits, metal bits, and electrical. I saw that someone suggested RIT Dye on them, I tried this and it failed miserably, it only discolored a few areas. I even use boiling water, a little white vinegar (and said on label for tough fabrics) and over treated the 3-4 gallons of water with 2 liquid bottles which are made for 3 gallons of water, it died my fingers instantly but not the fabric I let it soak for 3 hours stirring every 10-15 mins.

 

After that fail, I decided to paint them with fabric paint, I have done this is the past to visors and it worked great. See the links section for the paint I used I got it locally and then saw it was way cheaper on Amazon :-/

I let the visors dry inside our house under a heat vent for 5 days, before painting them. I took off the mirrors thinking, “Oh yeah these just snap off and back on” I was wrong, I am currently fixing this fail with some fabric glue, and epoxy; not sure if it will work may end up needing to hit a pick & pull for visors too… ugh…. DO NOT TRY AND REMOVE THEM! Just tape off mirror and remove the plastic light reflectors and stuff tape in the hole to protect light; cover the electrical with tape too.

After Dye: ugly

http://i.imgur.com/142mOmE.jpg

 

The vinyl and fabric paint works ok on plastic too, I cleaned and scuffed it first; I would tape off plastic and use adhesion promoter, then take tape off fabric and spray it all. The fabric will soak up paint like crazy, so focus spray on the fabric and only lightly coat plastic. Once there is a good build up on fabric and a light coat on plastic you can medium coat the plastic then you should be good. My fabric has about 6 medium coats, plastic 6 extreme dustings 1 medium coat to get any tan areas left. The warning stickers on mine peeled off with water from dye, be careful around these cause you can make the paint run.

 

 

Painted:

 

 

http://i.imgur.com/zhIhW1l.jpg

 

This one got 1 more coat to cover the sticker evenly

 

 

http://i.imgur.com/PxzD8tX.jpg

 

The rubber around the sunroof I painted with the Dupli-color vinyl & fabric paint, this came out great, same process accept no adhesion prompter or sanding, since it is rubber, the paint will stick really well once cleaned with wax & grease remover and dried.

 

 

Let all your paint cure for a few days before you re-install if you can, especially the visors, as the paint smell will linger a lot in a closed up car. Also need to cure to be tough to wearing out or getting scratched while installing.

 

 

 

 

 

 

RE-COVERING:

The majority of these pieces will be easy to recover. Lay out fabric on a large flat surface and trace your pieces, make sure on pieces that are cured to leave extra, and extra to wrap around the back to hold it all tight. I’ll break down each piece starting from easiest to hardest.

 

 

For gluing I used 3M Super 77, it was recommended by friends, the Dap product is super strong, but it spray in a web not a mist, and it instantly soaked through my fabric and ruined it. I sprayed on the 77 in little sections, let it tac up for 5 seconds or so and wrap, then peel back fabric to the last place you glued, then spray the next little section I worked about 5 inches at a time, this stuff dry’s fast. I used the DAP on the back of most of the pieces, I sprayed it into a plastic container and used a paint brush to brush it on the fabric and plastic. The Dap needs to sit open to the air for 2-5 mins to work properly; you can coat the back section of an entire piece then wait a min and start pressing down. On some areas I combined a little 77 spray to get it to hold tight then coated the outside of the fabric with the Dap letting it soak through, this should hold it super strong, and no one will ever see the ugliness.

 

 

Sunroof Board: Big and flat very easy to get started on; make sure it is clean and dust free, wipe down with wax and grease remover if you haven’t yet. Trace onto piece of fabric with sharpie, or cut out, make sure to leave 3-4 inches around whole piece to wrap around and leave 6-8” at the front to dip into handle and still have enough to cover back piece. When toy dip into handle part you will need to cut out all the air holes, and I slit where the clips click in, make sure you don’t miss any. I didn’t use extra glue in the handle since the handle snaps in and holds everything tight.

http://i.imgur.com/AgQvDrK.jpg

 

On the back make sure cover the clips just like the OEM fabric, don’t want it to look too janky, since you will be able to see a little bit of it from outside the car, with your sunroof full open.

 

 

http://i.imgur.com/5eo7IRC.jpg

A-Pillars: Same thing here, lay out trace, be conscious if you have a pattern in your fabric that it will be facing the correct way, and matching the opposite side. Also the factory glue needs to be sanded smooth, I used some 120Grit to and it down flat and then cleaned off dust.

http://i.imgur.com/8cGhacn.jpg

 

 

 

B-Pillars: Same, layout cut, just go over the gaps and let the glue cure out before working on those. Once the glue cures out for an hour or so cut out the gaps leaving an inch or so to fold inside. The cut triangle shaped piece into the corners so it won’t wrinkle. Experiment with this for the best result, I ended up doing it in a couple small sections and cutting the corners about ¼” from corner and stretching around corners.

 

 

http://i.imgur.com/XtKsk1p.jpg

 

http://i.imgur.com/5Wx9S6b.jpg

 

You may need to cut away some of the overlap to get the plastic bit to fit in right, just cut away a little and try the piece and make sure it will slide.

 

 

http://i.imgur.com/mKnfmq8.jpg

 

http://i.imgur.com/NrU79Xh.jpg

 

C-Pillars: Didn’t even attempt to wrap the window trim, my fabric was not very stretchy at all, and this would be a pain, so paint worked great on these. The rear window piece was very very easy to wrap. Just don’t cover over the metal clip and the other clips you need to clear.

 

 

Now to the headliner

HEADLINER:

Some say to remove the OEM Fabric, I did not do this, it looked like it would damage the liner, on my friend’s car he went over the OEM fabric and it worked great.

 

http://i.imgur.com/M7wkEC6.jpg

 

We rolled the fabric onto a 1” wooden dowel to make it easier to slowly roll it out while gluing.

 

http://i.imgur.com/WKRF2Vq.jpg

 

 

Start with a 4-6” section and spray glue on, a friend and a second car of glue helps here, spray and press down. We did front to back, now that I have done it, it MAY be easier to start from the center out, but getting it lined up right if you fabric is close to the same size like mine was it may be hard. Do what you feel comfortable with. Once a little bit was on we used little clamps to hold it so we could safely pull on the fabric.

 

http://i.imgur.com/jCvQOL2.jpg

 

Glue, Glue and more glue, stretch, rub, press, don’t miss any spots, work slow and together.

 

http://i.imgur.com/aVXaebK.jpg

 

I don’t really have any tips for getting around things; the front of the board by sunroof and the map lights is a pain in the butt. I got a huge wrinkle that I did cut out, but it will be hidden under the visor, I’m not that picky on the little imperfections. If you are, flex that wallet and get an upholstery shop to do it for you.

 

http://i.imgur.com/eJ0xqxB.jpg

 

Once the top is done, let the glue set-up for an hour or two, then flip the whole thing over.

 

Trim the excess and cut out all the holes like the Pillars, then I used the same method of Dap spray and & with a paintbrush to go around the whole thing gluing the small patches I made down, utilizing the clips again and I went to hold corners or places I had to stretch.

 

http://i.imgur.com/RsTBtRe.jpg

 

http://i.imgur.com/3JQyAyM.jpg

 

http://i.imgur.com/L9NWKNk.jpg

 

http://i.imgur.com/DWyNI1Q.jpg

 

on the small piece make sure to let the glue Tac up a bit before trying to press them down to you don’t have to fight them for 5 mins.

 

 

http://i.imgur.com/TG9lI4p.jpg

 

 

 

http://i.imgur.com/y9p7KjX.jpg

 

All Done: Flip it back over and admire your work, clean up and over spray with Mineral Spirits, test on a piece of scrap that it will not stain your fabric, on mine it worked great on black but stained on lighter colors.

 

 

http://i.imgur.com/ZssMhrd.jpg

RE-INSTALL:

Pretty much reverse order, make sure to put in the sunroof board first, I had headliner in car when I remembered, oops. Luckily it wasn’t in place and pressed in yet.

 

 

 

Make sure all you wiring is back secured in the while clips, I did this by popping up through the sunroof hole and working them around while elevating the headliner. I only taped down a couple cables, to the headliner just so they wouldn’t get lost up there when I shoved it up.

 

 

Start with the pop clips in the back there is 3-4 of them that need pressed in. The headliner will have a tendency to pull itself out of the trim pop-clips, so have a friend hold the backup, while you pop in the front clip and then screw in dome light, that and the pop-clips should be enough to hold it all up there.

 

 

I then did the grab handles to make it more secure.

 

 

Work your way around, work slow and make sure not to scratch your new paint.

 

 

 

The rubber around the sunroof was kind of a pain, you need to hold the headliner tight with the metal while shoving it on, and maybe it was because it was cold out, but the runner was really hard to squeeze on there.

 

 

Make sure to remove all the green trim clips from the car and attach to plastic bits before pressing them on.

 

 

Step back, apologize to anyone around for cussing so much and crack a beer/soda, it’s finally over!

 

 

 

And if you did it all right hopefully it won’t start sagging, I know in warm and humid climates you need to use different glue, Super 77 or even 90 will fail, so ask some upholstery shops in the area what they use.

 

 

 

Then always test glue and fabric before you get going, card board and some fabric, let dry for a day then stick on hot dash for a day or two and yank on it every now and then.

in for progress.

 

you should wrap some burberry or Louis fabric.

Sounds expensive, and not my style lol

Looks great.

As far as DIY this is one of my favorites I've seen. The more involved the project is the better is what I say. Great job my amigo.

Not my taste but great job going thru all that hard work to make the car yours! Very well done.

 

Also it seems to makes the car darker inside... or is that the tint.

 

Now to add radio controls to that steering wheel.

Thanks I appreciate that;), i figure ill provide more information than one could need just in case someone needs it!

Thank You! it was too much work and a pain, but worth it now.

 

Makes it darker, and seems smaller inside, same as when a room is painted a dark color seems smaller. Also I have dark tint, 35%, 20% on back window, and it was pretty gloomy out that day.

 

That is also on the list of things to do

Looks good!! Im currently working on the interior as well but i would get so frustrated and give up.Upholstery shop is throwing suede in mine!

Believe it or not, the branded prints aren't too expensive, depending on where you buy them. Then again, it IS Burberry and/or real-ass LVMH.

Personally I can't say the pattern does anything for me, but that's quite possibly the most impressive DIY and unique branding mod I've seen on this forum!

A paint in the ass is an understatement, it's more of some razor wire in the ass

But still cheesy IMO lol, a friend did his headliner in BRIDE Seat fabric, though Bride did sponsor his install paying for 50% and sending the fabric, did look pretty neat though
