Default T-Top headliner removal

How do I remove the headliner from my T-Tops and how do I put them on?
I just bought a used set at Charlisle and I need to take them off to paint. Has anyone ever done this. How do I get them off? I don't see any srews. Also When I go to put them on how do I get them to stay.

I was able to remove the headliners on my '74 by doing the following. Remove the t-top from the car and place the top upside down on a blanket or something similar so that you do not scratch the paint. Near the outside edge of the liner you shoudl be able to see three or four phillips screws holding on a clip that slips into the back side of the headliner.

After these screws are removed, the healiner will still be held in place with plastic fasteners that simply mesh together. They work similar to velcro, but instead the several plastic barbs mess with one another. You should be able to carefully pry up to release the fasteners on at a time.

I hope this helps.
