Attempting to install a headliner this week but as I disassembled, I realized I had no slots for bow retaining clips. Could this car have had a hard headliner? It didn't have a headliner when .I bought it.

That is just like my 73 Dart. Had cardboard headliner. Those clips will have to cut the slots for them. The bows that will work are from 71-72 Dart, they have a bend at the ends to fir the existing holes. Hard to find. Good luck. Al

Hmm. Not sure what is happening. It's a link to Google photos. Should work on any device or computer. May have to click the pic to start the video after you click the link .

I think I'll cut a small slot for the clips I have and try to make them work . I'll keep you all posted.

Ended up manually making rear bow hooks, manually cutting slots for the headliner clips. Came out decent. It needs to bake in the sun for a bit and relax the fabric . I also need to get a dome lamp.
