While there are no dues or fees for membership at El Camino
Central, we do rely upon member contributions to keep the site and server running smoothly. As membership grows, so does
site usage. Recently we have seen a huge jump in server load and bandwidth. As a result, at times we notice extremely
slow page loading. Many of you may have also noticed the new member rankings used to recognize supporting members.

i've heard that talking an iron set on low and using it on the bubble will reheat the glue and restick the headliner. I've never tried it yet so you may want to get a second opinion since this is something i've just heard about doing. _________________ camino81

how do you get that bubble out of the ceiling
You take out the headliner and have it recovered.
It's not the glue that causes this. It's the foam backing on the headliner cloth that breaks down over time. It will only get worse. You can buy a complete new fiberglass headliner board including new cloth for about $120, or you can have your old headliner board recovered for about $60-75.

Take the headliner down. Clean ALL the foam stuff off the liner & the cloth. Go get some 3m adhesive spray & LIGHTLY spray the liner & put the cloth back on. I did this many years ago with no problems at all. _________________ 78 Camino SS, 355,built 700r4,3.23
