hi. the roof lining on my ford Festive has began to sag.
The lining design is suspended and not a fabric glued to the roof. Held up by a wire rod. I am not sure if a clip has come loose or what ever. Any information on how the roof lining is held up and any tips in having it repaired. I have tried doing a search but without luck. It seems as if the support rod has popped out or a gust of wind got under the liner and popped it. I have tied to search information on how the liner is held up and any installation tips but without success, Thanks in advance Last edited by btf-ford; 15-11-2012 at 06:56 AM.

Hi, not sure what year model you have but I came across this which I thought might be useful for you, http://autos.groups.yahoo.com/group/.../message/14071 if you're confident tackling the job yourself then hopefully it might get you out of trouble, if not I would suggest trying a motor vehicle upholsterer / trimmer and getting a quote from them to repair it for you

Yes it is a 1997 ford festiva (sorry typo before) i looked at the link provided a above, thanks.
It was not that clear. I m wondering if he plastic clips that hold one roof lining wire has come out. I am it sure as I wold have o remove he whole liner to look at it. I was oping someone it give me a heads up description as to how he liner is connected and what to look for. I can get at the wire and the clips by removing the door seal that holds the liner in place but I am to sure what I am looking for. I can only partially access the clips and the wire but not sure were and how they connect to the car. I can try and look at one next time I am at the wreckers. Is there any diagrams or phosphor showing how the lining is connected? Thanks again Last edited by btf-ford; 16-11-2012 at 08:06 PM. |
