Thanks Mike! Huge help. Your willingness to experience the difficulties first and then explain to us as a forewarning is probably not as appreciated as it should be. I really appreciate your efforts.
Hello ibpa
Thank you very much!
Its been a real challenge to put this car back on the road.
Looking back over the years I'm so glad I took the time to share its journey.
The videos do seem to help quite a few people and they do appreciate=)
Thank you for the positive comment!
Cheers
Headliners... as soon as they arrive in a box, unbox them and lay them flat.. in a spare room in your house. When ready to install it, I lay it outside in the sun for an hour or so, usually on the roof of another of my cars, a dark colored car works best. really softens and takes out whatever folds or bends might be left in it.
Good tip!
If it hadn’t been for your videos I would have been screwed. I worked on a 71’ and 75’ and was just supposed to paint. Turned into reassemble and I wasn’t the one who disassembled. Thanks
You're welcome Jared, Im glad the series can be helpful.
Sounds like you have your hands full for sure..
Wishing you the best of luck!
Cheers
Thank you for going above and beyond to help the rest of us.
You are very welcome Pollloci
I hope some of these videos will help out..As a DIY guy I know what its like
digging for information that's difficult to find and trying things I've never done done before.
I wish everyone the best of luck with their passion of these cars and wanting to make them nicer=)
Mike never disappoints! Pure pleasure to watch someone who knows what they're doing.

Hello Mike! Nice to see the progress!
Hi Feeesh!
Yes at last the sweet sound and sight of progress
What a long haul it is!=)
Another nice one Mike! I've never seen a headliner DIY done with glue instead of paper clamps, but it does seem much more smooth and effective. One just has to have a lot of confidence, I suppose!
Hi John
Im glad you enjoyed
Confidence comes first by failure then followed by success.. Ive had lots and lots and lots and lots of failure..
If we fail its good for us
If we are successful its good for us!
No matter the outcome its all good=)

Thanks Mike!
Im very happy with the outcome
Thanks Mike!
Good to hear from you=)
Thanks mike
You're welcome mooney
Its my pleasure!
Easier way to locate the rear view mirror location is to screw the screws in the place before you install the headliner also the same rule for the sunvisors etc, always draw a center line on the back of the material and mark the centers on the vehicle, pre glue the headliner with spray grade contact adhesive around the perimeter just some tips from a motor trimmer with 23 years experience
Great tips Chris
Thanks for sharing your experience and expertise!
👍 👍 amazing!
Thanks Beaueuphus=)
I just installed mine with a roll bar. This is not easy like the video shows. I did this in 6 different evenings. Allowing sections to dry. Key area is the sleeve area of the fabric around the bows. Poke the bows through. Cut that area back so the fabric does not gather at the bow connection area. Then the Rear bracket was not shown. I'm guessing I'll wire tie around that rear rod. Then pull and secure it.
Mike,
Just finished my headliner install, I used your procedure, and it came out very nice. Great video!
Hello Joseph
Thats great! Congratulations on a successful headliner installation!
Mike, this video is great! The drawing which shows the order in which to glue headliner is very helpful. Do you have a similar pattern for the installation in a sunroof equipped car?
Hello Ross thank you Im glad it was helpful..
I haven't done a sunroof liner but I would imagine the same type of principles would apply.
I would approach it from a none liner roof first and then after its stretched into position in the rough I would then cut out the sunroof portion with considerable over size.
Attaching the four corners first and then the middle sections on the straight runs.
As things begin to fall into place it should be fairly easy to see what need to tighten and fasten.
The trick is to go extremely slow and think through every move thoroughly before committing.
Best fo luck!! and please let us know how it goes
Thanks!
Nicly donne! I am doing mine this summer.
Thanks Bjorn
Good luck with your headliner!
Clothes pegs work well for this too instead of contact cement
Hi Kitts
Thanks for sharing this idea! I can see the size of those will really be handy
Nice job Mike. You make it look easy, although it clearly isn't.
Hi Brett
Thank you..its really not to bad I know you surely can do it!
Hi Mike, great videos! Have learned a lot by watching your installations. I was wondering if you have a video showing how you installed the A pillar trim? I did not find this on your other videos, the later ones show this trim installed. I am about to install this A pillar trim on my 69 and would like to learn any tricks to get it done correctly.
Thanks,
Mike
Hello Mike
I don't have any video on the pillars directly but some of the techniques used in the rear upholstery installation video will be helpful. Also some close video up work on the door jamb should be of some help in that same video.
I used the factory originals for templates and contact cemented them in place..rolled the ends back onto themselves for the finished edge
Thanks for getting back to me. Your 911 is beautiful and has been very professionally restored. I'll be checking out more of your videos as I progress on my project.
How do you arrange the cross bows in the right order on a 63 356B. Can you help.
Hello Dennis
Most headliners using a crossbow installation method are installed by length. For example if you have 5 cross bows, lay them out flat from shortest to longest. Next measure the distance between the roof holes side to side. The bows will arrange in their perspective mating pattern according to the closet match front to back by length .
Good luck!
so, I have no clue as to the actual orientation of the bows, I am not the first one to replace the headliner. the two front bows are exactly the same length on my 1967 912. the third bow is longest and then the forth is just a bit shorter. I marked as I removed, is there a way to tell which one is actually placed where? also, there are slightly longer ends on one side. is there a proper orientation? ie the longer end fits to the passenger side? any help is appreciated!
Hello Gary
It's difficult to say exactly how your bows should layout especially if someone else has played with them before. I would recommend trying various combinations to see which way they settle in best and it should work out okay. The ends should have some rubber sleeves to help give them some grip. I don't thing that one side necessarily should be placed on driver or passenger in particular..
Different length of those end bends could be mgf discrepancies
Good Luck!!
