BMW E36 convertible Headliner Installation

[@danshaskin5543]

The video to remove the headliner was SO good ...but this installation video "died" at 9 minutes when it should have gone on for about 25. The part he did not talk about was towards the back window. THAT is where the installation gets quite complicated. There are a lot of cords that must be exactly duplicated. Take the cords from the old headliner (one by one) and duplicate them on the new headliner. Also the "C" pillar "dog ears" must be glued in. Guys...I did accomplish this installation....but you MUST be very patient and methodical. If you rush this you will have cords and parts that you don't know where they go. Enough said...good luck. Expect to spend about 5 hours for the installation. Oh, to be fair...everything that this guy DID say in this video was "golden". The parts he covered, he covered well...and I thank him for that.

is it possible for you to do a video of installing the canvas top on an e36?
