Found a couple of screw tips just breaking the gelcoat surface on roof , directly below is the padded trim that sits on the edge of the recessed ceiling .
Anybody know how this trim panel comes down ?
Yes, it's Velcro.
If you mean the strip in cabinets along top backside Horace is correct, velcro. It is not done very well and you may find it coming apart when you pull but it can be refixed to replace.

Sorry bad description , it's the large oval panel approx 4" wide that sits in the center of the ceiling around the recessed area of ceiling
OK I was wondering about that description. Now I do not know on FT but the Country Coach Magna 2006 we are living in at moment those peices all pull off using the press fasteners.
Try that and see.

Yes, on mine, that trim piece is held by some heavy duty velcro. It really didn't seem to want to come down, but with some pretty heavy tugging, it eventually broke free, and was able to un-velcro it all the way around. Had to remove that trim panel to figure out what type of LED lights to replace the current rope lighting with.
I can't imagine yours is held up by screws going all the way through the roof, but I guess it's possible.
Ours uses Velcro also
After I removed mine a couple of times it would not hold well anymore and came down on me when I was driving.
I had to put some button screws in it to hold it.
Agreed , no screw heads showing on surface of the trim panel , hence I want to get it down and see what's underneath it . I was thinking po may have refixed trim using those presstuds that have a screw in base ????
What did you use to replace rope lights ??
You guys were right , Velcro , I even remeasured then checked underneath the Velcro , no screw heads .
I can only assume they are under the headlining !
Guess I will have to tackle it from above
I actually still haven't decided!
