Default Mid Year Hard Top Assembly Question

I am putting together my 64 hardtop, and was wondering about the new headliner. Do you just sit it in there, or should it be glued into place, please help, thanks.

when I re-did mine, I glued it. A little bit at a time to keep it smooth.

They weren't glued from the factory.

Once the trim bits are installed, the headliner isn't going anywhere.

Yes, and the factory insulation is an integral part. Keeps it plumped up. Mine was glued to the liner,but not the top. I did put hushmat on the inside before adding the liner.
