Default Re: What did you do to your Crossfire today?

Re-installed headliner this afternoon. For the most part, things went fairly well. Much easier inserting headliner into car than taking it out. Been There; Done That. Had some issues getting the headliner re-attached at the rear. The old "push-pin" fasteners I kept and needed to re-collapse them so I could secure the 2 rear headliner tabs. Trick: After pulling the push-pin out on the old trim fasteners, I took a Bic lighter and heated the ends of the pin. Then I could squeeze the ends back together to re-insert the fasteners thru the headliner & into the mounting hole. Then I just pushed the "push-pin" back into the fastener to secure the headliner. Slick!

Everything else went together somewhat easy from there. Had some difficulty getting the rear trim re-installed. Found 1 pin broke on DS about halfway back & had to replace it. Headliner looks good! Car is nearly ready for trek to Eureka Springs. Used the Shop-Vac one more time on the Crossfire snatching up any small pieces of the old glue from the headliner. Used some Vinyl cleaner on all the trim pieces that were handled during headliner task. Re-installed the Car Cover on the car & final cleaning will happen when I get back from China on the 22nd.
