i just used the same size as the wheel nuts and they all came off fine :S i took my roof lining out a couple of days ago, i think the calais's would have these too, the metal rods have a bit of folded over mtal on them, un hook that, then kings pull the rod out and rotate it, starting from the front. the only thing i couldnt work out how to do was get the roof lining outta the back window properly, front was fine, just the back its out now anyways, using it as a template to make a new one Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
