REPAIR PROCEDURE
1. With the appropriate trim tool, release the tabs of the sunvisor cap from the bracket, then remove the sunvisor cap.
2. Remove both sunvisors:

4. Remove the front individual map light assembly:
- Remove the lenses.
- Remove the bolts.
- If equipped, release the four tabs, then pull out the navigation microphone.
- Disconnect the front individual map light connector. If equipped, disconnect the navigation microphone connector.
5. Lower the grab handle, then remove the caps with the push pin/grab rail cap pliers.
6. Pinch the clips to release the hooks, then remove the grab handle.
7. Pinch the hooks on the clips with a pair of pliers, and pull out the clips.
8. Pull the front door opening seal away from the A-pillar trim on both sides.

13. Cut four pieces of urethane foam, 25 mm x 10 mm.
14. On the top of the headliner, attach two pieces of urethane foam near each sunvisor bracket opening as shown.
15. Reinstall the front portion of the headliner.
