So I pulled the map light down to see what wires I could tap for a radar detector install but I'm having a bear of a time getting it all the way back in. Any tips?

Seems like the frame just beneath the headliner is being pushed up and isn't stiff enough to allow the clips to catch. Somebody stop me before I break out the superglue (to glue the metal frame to the headliner).

The headliner should have a small metal frame attached to it. It clips on around the hole for the light module. Its not supposed to come off. did yours come off?

Yes...I'll take a closer look to see if I've missed an attachment point.

Awesome...didn't see that the metal frame wrapped around/clipped to the headliner. Thanks Fly!
