			<content:encoded><![CDATA[When I collected &quot;Morris&quot; from PoL, the rear seats were down, the boot full of spares, mainly glass, a spare wing, spare light clusters. When I put the spares in the garage and put the seats back up, I had issues with the rear head restraints, one in particular.  Ain't touched 'em since but now my &quot;to do list&quot; is getting shorter.<br />
<br />
The plastic ring in the seat back at the bottom of the head restraint &quot;pole&quot; - when I depressed that section of the ring, one of the 'restraints wouldn't go fully down.. I'll play about with it more but your advice will, as always, be hugely appreciated.<br />

The bump stops on my Maestro Turbo have inevitably mummified and crumbled to dust. Of course they are NLA, does anyone have dims of the originals so I can go hunting?

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[My mind is thinking ahead to sorting the headlining - the previous repair was a bit of a bodge. When I collected the car from POL most of it was in place, if a bit grubby looking. However, it was hanging around the sunroof. I put the beading around the sunroof back in place and at least stopped the headlining from sagging with duck tape. A long way from a proper fix though!<br />
<br />
The previous owner tells me the sunroof motor does work. The sunroof not operating is more an issue of the switch not connecting. Likewise, the courtesy lights don't work either. All due to the bad job made &quot;repairing&quot; the headlining.<br />
<br />
Who can you recommend to replace, sort the headlining properly? The closer to the North West of England the better.<br />

The method to sort, I understand, is to put a jack under rear of the door, loosen the hinge bolts a fraction and use the jack to slightly lift the door and then tighten the bolts.<br />
However, I can't see what to loosen? Haynes manual in its door removal instruction says &quot;drift&quot; out the hinge retaining pins. Not sure what they mean? ]]></content:encoded>
