savana

I'm trying to remove the ceiling liner in a 2006 Savana cargo (essentially the same beast as the Express), as part of a build out. In addition to all the screws holding the liner up there are several bolt receiver fittings for the braces that support the metal cab/cabin divider. Anyone know how these fittings attach to the crossbeams in the roof? There seems to be a lip on them that's preventing the liner from sliding over them. .I suppose that I can carefully cut the liner around the fitting but then the liner will likely sag a bit there. I tried using and easy out but they don't seem to be threaded into the crossbeam. Once I get the liner out it will be clear how they attach but at that point the damage to the liner will have been done. All the cargo liner pieces that I've removed so far have a GM part number on the back so it all appears to be factory. Thanks!

Screw hole at the bottom and two of the bolt receiver fittings above.

looks like they're pressed in. You may need to drill them out
