1985 Ford Crown Victoria V8 Two Wheel Drive Automatic 87K miles

My low mileage 1985 4Dr Ford Crown Victoria has a hanging loose ceiling header, which though partial is a nuisance. Can this be re-installed using hot air, flat iron or some injected adhesive?

Hi there,

The short answer is no, the hood lining will have to be removed and replaced as the adhesive has deteriorated this is not normally an overly expensive repair, see your motor trimmer for quote.
