Headliner complete-What a job! 700 87

posted by  someone claiming to be Lawrence on  Fri Jul 27 19:48 CST 2001 [RELATED]

Hey board,

The headliner is in.

I had to sacrafice one corner in order to get it back in the car(had to bend it(it broke).

I installed it, break and all. The finished product looks nice. You cant really see where it broke. Im happy.

From what I observed, it seems like you can almost guarantee some type of damage when removing or installing the headliner. Its the "camel through the eye of a needle" routine.

If I had to do it again I would:

make sure to use coarse sandpaper(get plenty, it gets clogged pretty quick)to get the old stuff of the board, it will go alot faster. Or use a power sander(with care).

Later
