Anyone ever take on a Z06 fixed roof headliner replacement? Doesn't look fun

Couple hours the first time, now that I've done it I could have it in and out in maybe an hour.
Sun visors are tricky the first time you remove them, I think there are videos. If you're stuck I can walk you thru it. Note: the grommets for the visors that pop into the headliner look the same but there is a left and right, they are marked.
Also, it's tempting to leave the C pillar trim in place and just pop the top portion out but I found it's easier to completely remove these trim pieces so you're not fighting with them.
I did it my myself but a second set of hands would make it easier also less likely to damage the liner which is easy to do.
