Headliner --- how hard to remove and put back?

my Excursion used to a fire truck,
they stuck six antennas on the roof,
and one or more of them is leaking rainwater into the cabin.

at 83, I don't bend so well anymore,
is this something I can do?

All the pillar trims have to come out, the sun visors have to come out, the rear corner and center trims have to come out, the 3rd row seat belts have to be removed from the ceiling. Middle row seats should be folded flat, front seats help to be reclined, 3rd row should be removed. The liner comes out at an angle and is easy to crease. It's a bitch...

Yeah, I had mine done at an upholstery shop in town about 3 months ago, it's not something I was willing to do. It was around $400 I believe. Money well spent as far as I'm concerned.

you have convinced me to take it to the local Upholstery shop.
the FD folks took out the 3rd row seat, which I hate anyway, did that to the Suburban so the dogs have a place to lay down.

I might be able to tear it all up, but to get it back together???
