Did I buy headliner for a bus or summat else?

[issy]

any experts out there? consensus on Irish forum is it aint for a bay or even split BUT chappy did say he didn;t know what it was.. It's the blue box I like

8 METAL BOWS, 4'5"

1 EXTRA METAL BOW MEASURES 2'11"

END OF EACH BOW THERE'S A PLASTIC TIP FITTED...

THE MAIN HEADLINING MEASURES 7' X 5'

3 PIECES AT 3'6" X 3 1/2"

1 PIECE AT 1'6" X 9 1/2"

2 PIECES AT 19 1/2" X 8"

2 PIECES 18" X 20"

looks right to me? the smaller pieces are probably the bits that you glue onto the pillars in between the windows at the back, bigger ones are for rear corner panels and the big one is for the roof.......well that what i would guess

 

[issy]

thanks for that - that's what I sort of hoped.... but seller said it didn;t fit a split so dunno what his reasoning was for that? they that different??

 

[richbaker78]

bays have bigger roofs than splits, are you fitting to a split or a bay then?

 

[issy]

well I bought this hoping it would fit the split to be honest instead of having wooden headlining..... am in a quandry now.. perhaps wooden will be better and easier to fit after all?

Is it an easy job to fit a headliner?

 

[richbaker78]

a full one....tedious and requiring patience rather than difficult.
a short one....easy.
