This is correct HOWEVER, do not push the headliner into the gripper teeth right way.  Pull the material twards the front and clamp it in place.  Pull the sides tight and clamp them in place.  Once you have the headliner tight, THEN go back and push the material into the gripper teeth.  That should be the last step other than trimming the excess material.
I would agree if you if you have the windshield out, but if your glass is in place, difficult to do.  :2cents:

I never thought of that.  It would really be a PITA with the glass in.

Clamps are your friend....

Accually, my mom asked me what I wanted for Christmas a few years ago.  I said that I saw a 50 piece clamp kit at Thiesens for like $30.  I didn't know what I'd do with all of those clamps at the time but I thought they might come in handy some day.
