As an addition to what 47Merc said, here's a few photos of how the windlace is installed in a 40 coupe. Be sure and make a 45 degree miter on the corners of the windlace. If you look carefully you will see the little screw holds for the clamping plate (called grabber rail #14 in the instructions below) which holds the headliner. The clamplng plate with the reverse claws goes on after windlace is installed and IS NOT shown in these photos. IT IS shown as item 14 in the instructions below. When installing the headliner BE SURE to allow enough material for the headliner to pull tight where the sunvisors screw on. The last photo is the tool used to tuck the headliner up underneath the clamping plate. I got it from Eastwood. I rounded off the corners of the metal blade and covered the blade with masking tape so as not to tear the headliner. Use gently and tuck in a little at a time. These 1978 instructions are from LeBaron Bonney when the entire interior upholstery kit, including the seats, doors and package tray cost $550.
