how much fun did YOU have hooking the listing wires in the seat covers? i ended up cutting lengths of safety wire, feeding them through the padding, and then pulling the covers down tight using that. as for the headliner, could you maybe tuck enough of the material under the lip of the weatherstripping to look presentable? this after you apply the adhesive, of course...ive never done a headliner without pulling the glass, so im not sure, but keep the heatgun handy, you will need it to smooth out the wrinkles afterward.

I put a headliner in on my first mustang without pulling the windows. I did it on a warm day so that it was earier to work with and used a putty knife to gently slide it under the weatherstripping. I didn't even need the adhesive. Never had a problem and it looked great. Be very careful when you are using the putty knife because it may be easy to tear the headliner. I tore it in a couple spots but it was concealed under the weatherstripping.
