have any of these types of damage:

Any creases or tears in the headliner (A)
-
Any fasteners (B) or clip bases (C) which have come off the headliner
-
Any damage around the grab handle holes (D) or sunvisor holes (E) in the headliner

Any deformations in the grab handle (F)
-
Any cracks in the sunvisor stay base (G) Any bends or cracks in the sunvisor stay shaft (H)
-
Any cracks in the sunvisor base (I)
-
Any cracks in the vanity mirror base (J)
-
When reinstalling the headliner through the door opening, be careful not to fold or bend it too much. Also, be careful not to scratch the body.
