HOW-TO: Fully remove roof rack on a Protege5
I used to work in tech support and they burned "we" words into my brain, so I use that word alot when giving instructions. (sorry, too lazy to retype)
Start by removing the trim around the inside of the sun roof. Gently pull until you have seperated it from the car and follow it arround until you have it completly off.
Remove the A pillars by pulling it towards the center of the windsheild and gradually towards the center of the vehicle. It is very easy to break the plastic clips that hold it to the car so be sure it is fully unclipped. Repeat this process for the passenger side A pillar.
Next, the sun visors will need to be removed. There are two screws on one side and one on the opposite side.
It will be easier to start with the two screws on the hinge side, so we will remove these first.
Next, we will unscrew the clip side and pull all the pieces down and unclip them.
