Title: headliner bows question
Post by: RICH MUISE on 2012-01-04 11:04
I've got all my headliner bows color coded / wrapped in coresponding color electrical tape....seemed easier than sandblasting and painting...but I forgot whether the little wire goes on the front bow or the rear bow, and exactly where the attachment hole on the roof is. By any chance anyone got a pic? or just went thru headliner install?
Thanks...Rich

Rich they go in the rear, there should be two little holes in the flange around the rear window reinforcement at the roof about 18 - 24 " apart.  Sorry no pic as the car is at a new home.

Not yet, too far away at this time.  Too much snow this time of the year, don't want to get into one of those "news" situations.  Lono has agreed to keep it in safe storage until spring springes.  I am leaning on flying in and driving it back via WI visiting family on the way back.  Shipping it would be 2200 plus, driving even at 12 MPG would be half.  Oldest daughter would like me to swing down to their place in CA (Edwards AFB) but I don't think so right now, that would make it a looooooong, looooong trip!.
