I'm trying to refit the headlining/frame to the van which I took off a while back. Looking at it, if I didn't know if it had come off the same van then I'd say there's no way it'll fit...
I may be being a bit dim here, but wanted to check that the curved edge goes to the front ??? ( I know there's a couple of self tappers which hold it on, but the tabs for these are on the straight edge which seems a bit odd)
Nothing's ever straightforward.....
Thanks

If it's the same as my pick up, the curved edge does go to the front and there a self tapper either side at the rear.

Got it, thanks and the front just sits in the groove/runner....Andrew1967 wrote:If it's the same as my pick up, the curved edge does go to the front and there a self tapper either side at the rear.

Thats pretty much the case.
That was also my plan this weekend, until I discovered that the nice headlining I'd been carefully storing for years wasn't the one off the pick up
Guess what....... the one out of the pick up, once found, was no 'B' good, so I need to get a new lining kit from Newton
Plenty of other things to reassemble
