First, Jack the rear end up...place the jack under the differential, and jack it up enough to get the rear tires off the ground.

Next you need to open up the trunk, and remove the big plastic pieces around the trunk, then pull up the carpet.

You need to pull the carpet up all the way to the back of the rear seats, because you need to locate the 2 bolts on both sides.

Unscrew the bolts and the shock should release. Then go under the shock and unscrew that bolt and the shock should slide right out. Then remove the springs, and install the new shock.

Sounds a little complicated but trust me its easy, ive done it before on my 87 camaro

How do you remove a headliner from a 86 camaro?

Remove the pillar covers on the left and right. Remove the sun visors. Remove the roof center console if it is there or just remove the dome light. Remove the clothes hooks in the rear seat area. Remove the plastic strip just fwd of the rear hatch, at the top. If you have T tops, remove them. Now the headliner should come down. Be careful, it is just made of pressed fiberglass and crumbles easily.
