I have just installed my roof lining for my HT GTS and am ready to start stretching and glueing. where do i start front, sides, rear etc? Also the lining was stored for 2 years and now has some wrinkle lines. Will these be removed when i start stretching and glueing? Do i place a small heater in the car to warm up the lining to make it easier to stretch?
Any help appreciated.

get your bows into position then start front to back then centre of sides then get your pillars right then rotate around getting it nice and even try not to use heat at all until right at the end when its finished to get small wrinkles even if the car sit

thanks for the advise. I'll try it on the weekend. I'm more concerned about getting the pillars right.
