A pillar & C pillar interior trims

[Skyedriver]

Hi
I'm considering returning to the Excel fold with a car that needs a bit of TLC but hopefully not as much as the last one, which although bodily & mechaically sound, needed a lot of fettling.
The latest one looks like it needs the material replacing on the interior of the A pillars and C pillars. I've read the thread about the A pillars some while back and know that to do it properly it's a screen out job, although I think those custom pillar covers look great.
Does the C pillars require the removal of the rear glass? Is there another way of doing the fronts, such as ripping the leather off and cutting a piece to fit or may be the current trend for fake carbon fibre wrap?
Any advice greatly appreciated.
Thanks
