    Headlining Following Windscreen Replacement

    I recently had my windscreen replaced by an O'Briens agent, and I think during the process they may have either cut the front of my headlining or missed replacing a seal or similar. I was wondering if someone who has never replaced their windscreen could run their hand along the edge where the headline meets the top of the windscreen and tell me if there is a seal or cover, or if the edge of the headline feels like it has a rough edge.

    There is a gap between the Glass and the headlining
    I use it to run the Power cable for my Blackvue Dash cam
    But it should only be a few mil and feel round no jagged edge

    Thanks @ian. I've got a bad feeling about this.

    That's where my whole roof lining began to sag from, after a windscreen replacement...

    I called the repairer back to look at the issue & they stuck it back up with water from an atomizer bottle!! Told me it had shrunk & there was nothing they could do.

    Was (kind of) lucky that the whole lining was recently replaced under a minor hail damage insurance claim.
