Abstract: An automobile roof with an aperture and a closure panel that is displaceable for opening and closing the aperture by means of a crank handle mechanism or a motorized drive mechanism and a roof headliner for use therewith of the type comprised of a rigid, resilient material are constructed so that the same roof headliner can be utilized for covering the underside of the roof regardless of whether the crank handle mechanism or the motorized drive mechanism are utilized as the drive for the displaceable panel. According to a preferred embodiment, the headliner is provided with a cutout through means of which a foldable crank arm mechanism is attachable to a shaft of a gear box of the panel displacement mechanism. Furthermore, a cover shield is provided for covering the perforation when a motorized drive mechanism is utilized instead of a crank handle device.
