[QUOTE="FivepointSlow, post: 1217551, member: 18995"] Bought my car with only half the interior. I had to order a ABS headliner from LateModelResto aswell as the plastic cover for the dome light, as I had the dome light but that was missing for some reason... Anyways the headliner went up great, I have a pole holding up the front passenger side because I still need to locate a passenger side A-pillar cover. I tried attaching the dome light, and the ABS headliner has a hole cut out in the plastic part of it for the dome light, but not the cloth. So I went ahead and made a slit for the tab on the dome light to go through and I tried securing it with the screws in the dome light... But it just sagged there (being that the only thing holding it as the cloth on the headliner...), and after about a month it ended up falling off, and keep in mind I'm almost never in my interior, car hasn't moved since installing the headliner, and it hasn't even left my property in 2 years. So nothing hit it, there was no vibration or anything to cause it to fall, just lost grip on the cloth over time. So my question is what is the proper way to attach the dome light to the headliner? I had no headliner before so I have nothing to go off of. [/QUOTE]
