I have a 72 Super and got the original version (7 pieces) of the headliner, had no instructions, purchased the video from J Bugs and found that the parts I needed to know how to do the most were not covered in the video. It’s the rear window pieces that are tricky and not covered. I could not find anything to show this including some articles in back issued magazines that I purchased. I finally got it in by going to the local “Pick your Parts” and taking apart a stock headliner to figure out how it was installed.

If you have problems let me know and I can try to help you. By the way, the J Bugs video did do show two things that I think were good to know. 1) the trick with the cardboard over the door openings and 2) the use of a paint brush and contact cement. The spry stuff did not cut it for me. __________________ Mike 61 Ghia, 67 Deluxe, 72 Super.

Download Windows Xp Iso For Virtualbox more. No instructions. Mine has been clipped in place for about 3 months. Was too cold. Plus I really didn't want to do it.

I thought My Son was going to do it. I might have to work on him some more. I don't want a rushed job, I want a good job. He has done a few before. What is the secret cardboard over the door trick??? Any info will be appreciated. My kit is the original type of Vinyl with holes in it.

I've had it for 8 years. It is 5 pieces.

All the photos I've seen where they were installed by the owner aren't usually too good.

VW Lover Registered: Posts: 143 Posted I got one of those head liners and the sewing unraveled. It would be best to eather glue the seams with Elmers, or have it backstitched before you install it. Once you start to trim it, the ends unravel but I got that under control only to have a place in the middle bust open. The sewer must have ran out of thread mid sew, and forgot to tie off the ends. Where they stopped and started I will have redo mine again.

I decided also to convert the rear side windows to pop outs the next time around. But I need a pair with all the hardware.

I am having problems getting the headliner to stay under the steel clips even after hitting with a rubber mallet. I didn't glue it in either. HELP Lee Noonan 68AutoBug __________________ 68AutoBug - helping keep air cooled Volkswagens alive in Australia & around the World.
