That being said dose anybody have any headliner experience
here? I've heard a lot of people say this is a hard job. Hopefully since
the glass and seats have not been reinstalled back in yet it won't be too
bad. Is there anywhere on the net where I can get some installing
directions? I have watched a couple of videos on you tube on installing
one on a Beetle. Anything we need to do or look out for?
You need a bunch of those metal office spring clip things (like 200 or so),
a lot of time, and a lot of patience (don't get in a hurry). Also use 3M
spray glue, rather than generic contact adhesive, as it works better for
headliners. I think Mark Witwicki (W1K1 on the Samba) did a great job of doing
a 65 Squareback headliner, as did Brent, on his 69 Fastback. You might
want to do search of those 2 projects, to help get some ideas.
And yes, it is a hard job, as you need ALL of the stuff I mentioned above).
I'd rather repack CV's or do something else than do a headliner. :O
