Received all sorts of answers but the best solution seemed to be not to have any window framing at all; just to let the head liner frame the windows. A L-IV landed at Tracy about 6 months ago and I had a chance to checkout the headliner. The owner told me that the headliner was 2 separate pieces separated by the overhead console and held in place by velcro. Each window opening had a switched border that gave it a very finished look. It really looked nice. About 2 months later, a "velocity" also landed at Tracy with the same type headliner. Also looked good. Owner had good thngs to say; i.e., - no problems-. This time I asked where the upholstry was done and talked to the upholstry guy myself. Decided to go with the velcro approach. Installation scheduled for March with a backup date of April. More info then. Regards, Bill Hogarty L-IVP @ 97% (flight testing) --part1_10c.1df5e4cf.2b5844ed_boundary Content-Type: text/html; charset="US-ASCII" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit
