is there a guide to removing the headlining etc to get to the underside anywhere?

I don't think so. I found that if you pull down on the centre of the panel it unclips, Then you can just about bend it enough to slide it out from behind one of the trim panels that runs up the side pillar, then slip it out from behind the opposite side pillar. Reassembly is the reverse of...

Removal of one of the side pillar trim panels would probably be kinder to it, but I didn't fancy that.

As kevin says, remove the rear centre panel and the roof will drop a few inches, certainly enough to get your arms and a spanner in, be carefull not to crease it though.

Also watch the black seam sealant that can often be found under there, as it goes everywhere if you have a light coloured roof !!
