ABS Headliner Questions
I just picked up one of the plastic ABS headliner replacements from a local supplier. It's a T-top version, and I had a couple questions for those who have installed one:
-What did you do about the two front clips? There's no provisions for them on the plastic replacement
- I am planning on covering it with the foam backed headliner fabric; what adhesive would you recommend?
-How did you find the overall fitment?
Anything else I should know before I tackle covering it and installing in my car?
Thanks,
Zack

-What did you do about the two front clips? Nothing,it's light enough.
- I am planning on covering it with the foam backed headliner fabric; what adhesive would you recommend? Headliner spray glue,
-How did you find the overall fitment?Just OK,(didn't like the fit along the sides of the T Top)(went back to stock)
Anything else I should know before I tackle covering it and installing in my car? Take your time,be patient.

-What did you do about the two front clips?
My new liner sagged down, even though they say you don't need anything, so I put a 2"x2" square of Velcro where each of the front clips went. Works like a charm.
