When I had mine done (product is called "Reflex") I removed everything but the
drivers seat, they took that out. Seat belts, rear seat brackets, rubber plugs,
everything. But...I threaded the fasteners back into their holes and masked the
heads, so I wouldn't have to cut out the liner material when it came time to
replace everything.

I didn't remove the roll bar but I did remove the padding, he sprayed about
halfway up the bar so the padding covered the transition.

One thing I wish they had done was mask the tranny cover...under the console,
the removable sheetmetal portion, where the lower shift boot is located. Would
be easier to install a vent tube to the NVG3550, whose vent is located up near
the bellhousing. Oh well, I'll just have to cut it loose when I get around to
installing that thing.

Good luck.
