Kudos to both you guys! I'll be doing that this weekend.

Hey Mohr, you an Ole Miss fan? Kicking butt this year!

I am new here but you're right. I got to go to the Vandy game. What a blow out.

A little trick to doing the sunroof cutout... after you install the headliner, cut out the opening and be sure theres is at least 2-3 inches of extra all around. Install the rubber retaining strip, Then go around the outside edge of the strip with a razor blade to trim off the excess. Remove the rubber strip, tuck the excess up and reinstall the rubber.

this A.M. we had our first frost.

has anyone redone the sun visors? compared to my *new* headliner, they look mighty tired now.

Theogre has a nice right up on them in his cave (link at the top of page) but I haven't done mine yet. I have plans but just haven't had the time. You could go first this time lurker.

I have been doing GM glue up headliners for years, and have always had great success using 3M Super Trim Adhesive. DO NOT use the general trim adhesive or you will be doing it over (ask how I know). I have done everything from Trans Ams to wagons and Blazers. The harsest part is getting the liner out of the car without breaking it on some models. Must have gone in before the glass.

VIsors have to be sewn. Unless you have a heavy duty sewing machine you wont be able to. Auto upholstery shop did both of mine for $20 in black naugahyde. I took them the material.
