Since I bought my celica 2 years ago, the inner lining of my top has not wanted to stay velcroed to the outter lining (toward the front). It's always been that if I put one of the pins (I guess you'd call them) into the hole at the top, that the other doesn't want to stay inside it's hole. Recently it's been worse b/c niether seem to want to say in, so I wind up w/ this black lining blocking my view through my rearview mirror. Doesn anyone know a fix to this? Would it be possible to just get new velcro and put it on?

Got the new pins today, took one out and put a new one in and this is what the old one looked like:
 Might be hard to see, but it was stripped pretty bad..after all that though, I tried to get the velcro back up and what I found out is that I just didn't apply enouph preassure so it would stick good. Now it seems all good, didn't bother replacing the other pin yet, but I have it in case  Although, I did notice one thing, which is that the pins still don't seem to work together. Meaning I have one in the hole, but the other isn't able to reach it's hole. More of an issue w/ the lining itself being a tad too small..? I'm guessing. Either way, I can see out my rear window now lol. -------------------- "A true car enthusiast can see the potential in any car"
