You can't bend the tabs over with the headliner installed. So you can't install the buttons after the cardboard goes up.
So Tim's premise may be correct, in that the mini-bows and buttons are part of the 2nd piece of headliner and therefore it's components (buttons and mini-bows)don't have part numbers. | | | | | Joined: Dec 2005 Posts: 2,557 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Dec 2005 Posts: 2,557 | Do the panel trucks have the same braces in the headliner ? I'm sorry,I had to ask !

I could be missing something as this is the condition when I got it. It had the matrial shown stuck to the roof between the "bows" you see. It had all been pulled down but one or two strips. http://i140.photobucket.com/albums/r19/LutherParris/52Panel/000_0019.jpgThis is a piece of the original material showing both the back and the face side.... just in case someone is interested. http://i140.photobucket.com/albums/r19/LutherParris/52Panel/000_0020.jpg
