Sometime after (long after) the headliner is installed, after the kick panels and door weather seal and parcel shelf are installed, you get to install the lower trim piece for the headliner. This piece runs between the door seal and the parcel shelf front trim rail, covering the bottom edge of the headliner and top edge of the kick panel. It is 1/8-inch thick, matches the height of the parcel shelf front trim rail, is covered with vinyl and secured with trim screws (2 for the 1500, 3 for the 1600, and no piping). The top edge should be even with the parcel shelf on the 1500, touching below the parcel shelf on the 1600, and the front end may overlap the door seal slightly. Since the parcel shelf in the 1600 model is shorter front to back than the 1500 model, this trim piece will be longer in the 1600.

"I cut new pieces out of 1/8" Masonite because the wood has split on one of my trim pieces. The Masonite will flex slightly and allow it to conform to the contour better".

"The trim is made up of two pieces - First there is a piece of Ash, tapered like a wedge to the contour of the side wall, that screws to the body with two small self tapping screws. Then the trimmed piece of thin plywood screws or glues on top of this. (The tapered ash piece is not obvious when installed). Scarborough Faire supplies both pieces, with the top one trimmed or untrimmed, short or long as required for 1500 or 1600 coupes.
