removing wagon headliner
'67 P220
took a detour on the way to the upper control arm bushings, replacing the gaskets under the upper rear hatch hinges. I need to remove the 50 year old headliner to get at the nuts that hold the hinges to the roof. The manual unhelpfully suggests cutting the headliner to remove it. Short of that, is there a way to get the back edge loose without destroying it ? |

Pull out of track atvrear near top tailgate , then work down sides from front to rear use scrapper push up and guide out of teeth ! That holds them up once free from teeth that area will slide down work along and rest is elementary my dear Watson best of luck 🤞

I was thinking more along the lines of warming the old headliner up to make it a little more pliable and hoping it comes down like a 245. There does not seem to be a good way to get a hold of it.

It’s so easy it’s unreal
Remove rear , works sides Undo sunvisors and windscreens surrounds , interior light , USE a scrapper push up pinch pull down move along its as simple as that once you do that you’ll be like omg it’s easy and even more so once you see behind you will understand how it’s held and can tweek your method 😎👍 Just get it done boi and don’t fret All the best your next post I’m expecting you to have carried out said task and be like pheww that was not as bad as I thought just remember the order of the bars as they need going back in the same place when putting it back in the car Hope it goes well for you Or get a trimmer todo it if your that worried Robert.w
