I probably should get a car cover.
I put up a window shade every day but maybe I should do more.
As I was saying the headliner is letting go from the roof.
Wonder if anyone knows a good shop they trust, to fix it here in Houston?
And should I use old material or change to a new color/material maybee....
Dont think these cars are happy with this climate......
But thank goodness for the excellent A/C they have....
Hey, Harley, I've also been losing my headliner and found a place on Clay Road (I'm in west Harris County) that comes to my office, removes the headliner, takes it to the shop, fixes/replaces and then brings it back to you--they're quoting me 24 hours turnaround and the price wasn't too bad. From what I could find, they get good reviews online; I'll let you know once mine's done, OK?

OK, they came out yesterday and I was very impressed. Removed the headliner in the morning, brought it back and had it installed before 5:00. Excellent service. The one downside was that they did not have the exact fabric & would have to special order from Chrysler. I chose to go with what they had & it looks fine to me (certainly better than drooping onto my head!). Their number is 281-579-3132. Cost including tax was just over $350.00. Robert, the tech, was very nice and I'm very pleased.

So how are you guys doing down there? I saw where Lake Travis is down something like 50 ft. I hope some of the big rain we got last week made it your way.

No rain and the lake levels are dropping several feet a week. I was out there scuba diving last weekend and if you know what "sometimes island" is it is now a small mountain from the water looking up. Here are a few pic's, not from me but from some other divers....

Sounds like the summer of 1980 where we hit over 100 days of 100+ temperatures. I was working outdoor construction that year.
