Overhead Liner Strips
Anyone know the secret to installing the wooden strips that separate the headliner panels? Some are too loose and won't stay put and others are too tight and I am unable to fit them in.

Hi,have you already tried applying a biadhesive tape with a thin foam?

Thanks Matteo. Sounds like a great idea for the ones that are too loose. Still not sure about the ones that want fit in. Whenever I plane something down I seem to find out later it was a mistake.

Dear Alan
Either the strips have different widths, or the panels have been out and are not put back in the same position. The intention is that the strips just fit between the panels, and can be pushed in and stay there jammed between the edges.
Would recommend Velcro instead of tape, which softens in hot conditions.
Kind regards
Lars
