Make a little piece of curved and angled thin sheet metal, with no sharp
edges, for tucking the headliner material between the retainer and the roof
framing.  I actually used the belt clip from a carpenter's tape measure -
thin and with the curve.  It was quite handy.  A perfect tool might be 2"
wide, curved from edge to edge or at least at the corners, thin, and with an
angle about 1/2"-3/4" back from the curve.  And old scrap blade might work
well as a donor.


Clarks did sell a headliner tool that is perfect for this application. 
It is also good for many other jobs on the interior. Any good automotive 
paint jobber can get one through their tool supplier also. In a pinch it 
can open paint cans...
