Has any one managed to fix a hanging rear roof lining on a touring - if so how?
Cheers

Length of flat white PVC strip (cover from electrical mini trunking) cut to length and wedged in the top of the rear side window rubbers as a "temporary" fix for one of mine. Been there for about twelve months now and no one's noticed, or at least, haven't commented.

it would probly take about 2 hours to do a decent job of it. lengthening the cables and routing them down the a pillar and behind the dash. u could put the check control panel on the vertical bit of the centre console in gubbins tray behind the ash tray so some action with mr dremmel needed! mmmm food for thought :idea:
