I have painted the doors and added new interior panels on the door and now I want to install the head liner. I even purchased the insallation tool. I also purchase cement (glue). Can any one give some installaion advice before I start. I was thinking of paint the interior roof with POR 15 to kind of seal it and prevent rusting before I start. Is that a good idea or not?

I just used rustoleum oil based enamel on my inside roof, might not be a bad idea to glue thin foam insulation to the underside to block a some of the radiant heat. I can attest with a black roof and no AC it gets hot.

Do a search as this has been discussed alot...some have put the front section in first and then the rear and others ( including me )have done the opposite. Either way it is easier if you have someone help you.

Are you using the two piece cardboard or the one piece abs plastic? If cardboard, unroll it and let it sit in the sun for a few hours.

What do you have the glue for? none is needed. and what is the installation tool?? never seen one...
