New Headliner Fix Tech Article

alright guys, i've been talking to irocztwentygr8 about me making a new tech article on fixing the t-top headliner. As some of you may know i successfully did mine with fur. This is all about the steps i took an everything. I am hoping to make this a tech article for everyone since it seems to give you a beter idea of what todo when your fixing it. I used a may pictures so they could get a better idea of the work required(which isn't much at all). Please critque my work all you want, in a professional way though(which mean dont dawg on me for having done it in fur.

Here is the link, i dont knwo how much bandwidth it will take but it is here

http://www.freewebs.com/kidrcth/Headliner%5FRepair.htm

here is a PDF version

http://www.angelfire.com/fl5/ShanesM...r_Repair_3.pdf

For you admins i made a zip file of the same page if you do wish to post it. I have proofread it many times and thios is like the 5th version fo the page so i think its nice.

If anyone wishes to make suggestions on what to do next please tell me. I will change then as soon as possible.


Thanks,
Shane

dude, awesome site, i've been trying to figure out how to deal with mine for a few months, and now that i have instructions and a cheap way of fixing it (compared to a new headliner @ $140 or custom at $too much), i can finally take care of it when i get a day off

nah, no fur, but i will get something different, but fur is too "pimped out" for my taste, i think chrome is even to flashy, whatever floats ur boat, but for me, it's form from function
