Anyone kno how to remove headliner

In the hopes of making my R58 feel less coffin-like, I was thinking about lightening up the headliner to a light grey Alcantara. Is this a DIY or should this be something an upholstery shop should do?

any other ideas to take that coffin feel away? I have black pillars (maybe paint those a light grey) and black sun visors.

If you don't get member responses, Google Gemini AI has some instructions and ideas.

Thank you so much! I plan on taking it to an upholstery shop tomorrow. And here I thought I was tech savvy. I will have to look into that Google Gemini AI thing.

thanks again.
