Re: My Headliner Removal
Found a post ( https://www.crossfireforum.org/forum...rior-trim.html ), looks like I have a source for the parts. Figures I find them AFTER I post the posting, you would not believe how long I looked before posting the headliner post... Geeze

I hope those clips Ghost has found will work. I will get a bag for future use and to help out a friend in need. Even the correct clips are hard to get into place. I broke a couple before getting that panel back up correctly.

Helps to have friends in high places, my local Chrysler dealer sells the clips for $1.70 each.

Mind you if I can get them cheaper and just as easy then I jump at it.
Re: My Headliner Removal
This morning I followed the link to the 50 pack MB clips and ordered them, after checkout I got a message "unable to complete transaction" no reason given. A couple hours later I decided to try again, all worked fine when placing the order. I noticed a few minutes ago that both orders have gone thru. I should have plenty of clips by Friday. Even though I have two cars only one has a headliner. LOL.

10-4 I agree totally. The link I provided will get you ten OEM clips, including shipping for $13.75. Chrysler wants $17.00 + tax. That little round plastic cap that covers the windshield wiper arm bolt is $15 at Chrysler; Price has skyrocket in this past year. I bought one from Chrysler in 2010 for $4.98 Sometimes it's just easier to pay the price and swallow your medicine, but if anyone knows which Dorman product covers that wiper bolt. I'd appreciate the info.

Re: My Headliner Removal
Thanks for the followup ghost. I replaced my headliner awhile back and had the same broken clip problem. Though my panel is already in place with those Mercedes clips I will order a bag of your find on eBay. I'm sure they will be helpful sometime down the road.
I too have purchased directly from China before and have good shipping times. When installing some LEDs in a home remodel I purchased various transformers and fixtures. They were essentially the same thing as that which Lowes sells at ten times the price and they are working just fine.

Hey George, don't feel like the lone stranger... I have a coupe and don't know anything about Velcro either. I have my entire headliner out and will be getting around to finding someone to replace the cloth (or maybe not still on the fence if I can DIY). So, I don't have a clue about Velcro in the headliner and this is the first I heard of it. Maybe, just maybe, someone used some Velcro to 'fix' it before on this particular auto?
I think that you are correct on that being a previous fix. I replaced my headliner and do not recall any Velcro. Maybe my Velcros were out mating also but I haven't seen any little Velcros running around.
