New kid on the block and already got a problem. (Headliner) UPDATE: Problem solved

I've seen more than a few convertiables do the same thing, in reverse. I noticed it especially when driving thru the "hot states" during the summer (NM, AZ, TX). The person was flying down the high way with the windows UP and, I guess, the a/c blasting! They were all Amrerican cars, I don't see that with Mercedes, Porcshe or even most Corvettes?

I think its an install problem. I have no idea of how to fix it or if it was a problem when they were new? Maybe its just me...but over 70 or so, I roll up the windows and crack the vents. But to tell the truth, I don't remember that happening on my '65 Galaxie, I'm pretty sure somewhere since I've owned the car, I must have passed 70, 80 or 90 mph with the windows down, at least for a 1/4 mile or so; but that would have only been for a block or two.

Falconaround, is right. Thats why women with long hair, the wind blows it forward instead of backwards. Air flow gets tricky as you go faster.
