Headlining - Mini Mk2 - 67-69

Mini saloons of this period had a two piece headlining frame with the canopy glued and stapled to them. Cream Crackle was the only colour originally used on this model. Included in the kit is a pair of "C" post liners and a piece of material to go under the rear window. These frames are no longer available, so make sure you keep the safe if not in the car during restoration. Other colours are available to suit your requirements.

INSTRUCTIONS

Basically the sewn headlining is fixed to the frames by loops which are held with office type staples and the outer edges are turned over the frames and glued in place. Obviously, these frames are fairly flexible, so when fitting the headlining, we would suggest that you carry out the work in a warm environment so the material is not to hard to stretch. Another tip is to use a hair dryer to soften the material slightly if any stubborn creases are found particulary near the corners.
