Now I know I remebering seeing something in here about someone taking there headliner out I just cant remember who it was. I need to replace my headliner due to my idiot friend burning a spot in it with a lighter. What I really want to know is how the hell do I get it off. Thanks

bring it to a shop, and send the bill to your idiot friend !

It might of been Blue Crush thinking about it now i think I saw a picture in the Gallery....Believe me he paid for it.

It's Ragingfish that took his headliner out

I was thinking i could get some black suede and just spray glue it on to the headliner real good, and tack it in at a few hidden places like around the lights or something.

well look u and ur dumb friend can replace it, first off glue is what is always used, and staples but u have to know whre to positon the staples so they are not shown, i replaced mine and it came out great

What type of material did you use to re-do your headliner

No, I have not touched my Headliner.Blah, Blah, Blah, that comment, while it is true, is getting old...

I replaced the headliner in my '87 Nova/Corolla when the original material started to sag. Got the material at a fabric shop - it was dark blue suede with some light foam padding on the back surface and was specifically made for headliners. Then used some 3M spray-on glue to attach it to the backing plate and put it back in the car. It's been quite a few years now and it still looks fine.

I REPLACED MINE WITH BLACK SUEDE.. I ADDED STROBES SO WHEN I TURN THEM ON IT LOOKS LIKE LIGHTNING STORM..I LOVE IT..MY WHOLE INTERIOR IS BLACK RIGHT NOW.

What paint did you use to do the interior panels.

teh guy that does my body work.. he used the paint you would use to paint a car....its better to use that paint, it last longer, and once the clear coat is on its hard to chip ..but overall i like the result of my car..

any pics of your interior DA1? I've been thinking about replacing the headliner with a nicer material. you know... to fix the rattle from the sunroof controls.

i dont have any pics at the moment my camera is getting fixed but as soon as i get it ill make sure to post some pics of my car
