I am missing some of my headliner retainer strips used on a 71-74 Cuda. I need the upper and lower strips for the passenger side. These shown in the pic are what i need only for the right side (passenger side) any help locating some would be much apricated. Please reply or give me a shout at 316-393-0598 Thanks

From memory, I can only recall the "teeth" in the front, along the windshield. the sides and rear are held in place by friction u-clips. Working from back to front, once everything looks right, centered, and all that, you commit and hook the front headliner fabric onto the teeth in the front.
 
dude. nice looking ride for a not-perfectly-factory looking car. very nice. I approve.
Thank you much. yeah its nowhere near stock anymore. Started as a 73 model that i paid $3200 for. Every exterior piece of sheet metal is AMD and has been modified, shaved drip rails, handles, fabbed front and rear valances. About 1.5" added to the rockers for a lower stance. Full Schwartz performance chassis, Ride Tech, flush mount glass, MMX 6.4 hemi Kenne Bell, terminator X Max controlling the engine and 4L80 transmission...bunch more , but yeah its not stock
 
Yes, please describe more what your looking for because the are a few places where toothed strips appear.
 
I think these (unused teeth) sail panels, and the front vaginus dentata are the only teeth I can think of in the 1970 headliner install. Are there others?
 
After some more research these are for a 71-74 cuda ...These are the pieces i have and they are for the left (drivers side). I need to find the same pieces' for the passenger side of the car. They are a mirror image of each other. i have seen a couple of the lower curved piece but haven't been able to locate the upper piece... has the have the three holes for the last headliner bow.... any help would be greatly appreciated as the car is in upholstery now... THANK YOU!
