jmjp5055 Posted July 31, 2019 Author Report Share Posted July 31, 2019 No just replaced original Velcro on the vert not boot. boot velcro like new but Velcro warn or sun damaged on car side also replaced Velcro along frame that holds headliner in place , those plastic clips only hold the boot in place as long as the Velcro is holding the boot down You are right about the boot being difficult to put on, terrible design Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
94 olds vert Posted August 1, 2019 Report Share Posted August 1, 2019 Yes, these boots are difficult to put on. I changed out all the velcro on my 94. Made a world of a difference. jmjp5055 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jmjp5055 Posted August 5, 2019 Author Report Share Posted August 5, 2019 The Velcro at the well is sown, upostry shop, too expensive. Got inventive. bought aluminum bar stock, Velcro, measured length needed, also figure the existing screws to utilize the end screws, drilled two more on either side of pass thru Wrap the bar stock , kind of hard because it was the plastic part of the Velcro, clamped it down for a couple days to help form the Velcro around the bar stock. Screwed it in place, worked for me. The pictures hopefully will give you a visual of what l’ve done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
