    Not sure how to help you! I have a 41 Chevy Coupe here with a headliner in (and I'm not about to tear it up, I trust you understand!) and I have the body book but don't know what that covers exactly! I guess I'll be not much help, unless you can be more specific. I'll go see if the book says much though.

    One end of the bow goes in a notch on the back side of the roof rail, the other goes in a bracket(clip) that screws into the roof rail. The stationary bows are held in by the little V prongs that bend over. Make a little slit in the bow listing so the material wiggles back and forth. Other wise a wrinkle will occur.
