(Obviously, headliner pics are labeled 'headliner*.jpg')

Here is a pic of the adhesives I used:

Also, I just noticed tonight after taking these pics a slight bit of sagging
in one corner.  I believe this is due to tugging at it a little too much
after the adhesive had dried.  I pushed it back up and it held okay, but I
may have to re-glue that area by the end of the summer.

Hope this helps,
Denis G.
