Thanks. There are silicone smears on the glass much as if it were installed by Mr. Magoo, but most should come off. The seal positioning is also not that great, the silicone may have hardened a bit too much before it went home , and in the process I have the cloth on the headliner sails back a little bit off the edge. Oh well. Going to have to pack them back in. Headliner is mostly clear of wrinkles, though the seams at the ends of the hoop pockets are a little irregular and it’s not all that tight. I’ve been told I can tighten it some with a hair dryer because vinyl - seems legit, I remember the same thing with above-ground pools.

The part that was a real bastard was having to pull off the headliner retaining plate things because the windlace had clips holding it in behind them, and no way to jam those open with a screwdriver.

I also ordered fresh seat cloth and hope to get to redoing the covers within a month or so , that and replacing some of the shiny mylar on the doors and a couple other small things will have the interior pretty much factory fresh.
