To be done "properly" the front and rear 'windshields' should be removed. The "ends" of the headliner are glued to the 'pinchwelds' under the rubber seals for the glass, and the seals help to keep it in place. If you have help (pals to help with the glass) and lots of patience you can do it "at home". It might be worth at least finding out how much a shop would charge and decide from there...they have a LOT more experience at doing it and not breaking the glass in the process!!!
: Anybody got advise on headliner replacement for a 1969 1/2 Maverick. Mine is dry rotted and has fallen. Auto Krafters shows one it says is original material and pattern for $69 I think but I have been told I have to actually remove the front and rear windshield. A ford book I was reading just said remove the windshield trim but did not elabarate on how to do that. I've never done upholstry or windshield removal and wonder if I would be better off to price it out to a upholstry shop or if someone out there has done it and has a opinion...Thanks Kelly
