Abstract
A headliner and retainer bar assembly adapted to be installed in the roof of a vehicle, comprising a headliner panel, a retainer bar extending along the front edge portion of the panel on the top side of the panel next to the roof of the vehicle, and accessory components including sun visors on the bottom, finish side of the panel. The accessory components are secured to the retainer bar by fasteners which extend through the headliner panel to provide a sandwich assembly capable of being installed as a unit. Fasteners, preferably of the type which are installed by being pushed into the designated attaching holes and then strongly resist being pulled back out, secure the retainer bar to the roof frame structure of the vehicle.
