Headliner removal instructions?

[georgeb]

Has anyone pulled the headliner? I bumped the shark fin on my garage door and now its not sitting flush against the roof.

Any help or photos would be appreciated. Thanks!

Just leave it. Pulling it down will likely create a larger problem.

I hope you get an answer, I plan to pull it down to install a HAM antenna.

How short is your garage door to hit the antenna on a Maverick?

I dropped the headliner for sound deadening. Two clips in the back plus all of the pillar trim hold it up.

Not an easy task. See attached. Section 2 (Pages 13-22) is for "lowering" the headliner.

And this why l don’t want to get the air bag recall done. A lot of opportunity for things to get scratched up.

Does the airbag replacement require the headliner to be removed?

Extremely appreciated. Thank you!

I am assuming so, since it is the side curtain air bag. My dealer hasn’t done one yet, but as parts on order for another customer. I’m waiting to see.

Yes, headliner comes down for the airbag replacement. Although the instructions say pulling the C-pillars aren't necessary for it, but looking at it I might have to call a 'Yeah, right Engineers' on that one.

They probably want them to just let it hang down, while still attached at the back. That can’t go wrong, can it?

The instructions suggest it's possible to slip the rear headliner over the upper C-pillar trim. Not sure how much I buy that.

Also looks like there's been a recent revision (Jan 25th) to the recall procedures to disassemble more of the B-pillars, as well as more fully spell out the headliner removal; before it just referred to the service manual directions.
