How do you get the trim to stay on the sides of the cars?
Most trim is held on with double sided tape. Clean the old adhesive off the the back of the molding and the area of the car where the trim goes. Go to autoparts or paint supply place and get 3M double sided tape. It comes in several widths. Get the one that fits closest to the one you need. Clean the area of the car with some clean rubbing alcohol. Then reatach the molding to the car. Hope this helps.

How do you remove head liner from a 1997 jeep Cherokee Laredo?
Istalling a headliner is not that difficult. First, remove everything that is bolted or screwed to the existing headliner, e.g., sun visors, luggage bar supports, etc. Next, remove anything that is bolted or screwed to the trim pieces that contact the headliner, e.g., shoulder strap supports. Next, firmly pull the trim pieces from the sides, rear and front. Next, pull the headliner down from the rear and slide it out through the tail gate. After that go to the fabric store and purchase foam backed headliner material and about two cans of headliner adhesive. Remove the material from the old headliner and clean the residual off with a putty scraper or stiff brush. After the headliner is clean and dry, spray it with headliner adhesive. Let dry until tacky. Next, spray the foam side of the headliner material with adhesive. When tacky apply the headliner material to the headliner shell. Work in sections and be careful to stretch and smooth the material as you go. Fold material over the ends as possible. Finally trim off the excess and cut the necessary holes for the sunroof, if so equipped, screws for the sun visors, etc. Installation is the reverse of removal.

What can you use to remove old adhesive from glass?
Try using ZIPPO lighter fluid. A little on a paper towel or rag will take off any sticky residue. Just remember this stuff is flammable. Just about any organic solvent will remove adhesive. Organic solvents include lighter fluid, nail polish remover, paint thinner, and carburetor cleaner. Hardware stores sell products with orange solvent, which should work fine. Once the adhesive is softened, use a straight edge razor blade to scrape the glass clean.
