Default Headliner failing

So my headliner went from 0 to 100 in a day. Sagging really bad and my ocd is kicking in when I have the windows down. Anyone order a replacement kit? If so what brand and what are your thoughts?

There are a large amount of threads on this subject, just put 'headliner' in search, you'll learn more from them than you will from this post.
Basically you buy the fabric and do it yourself or you get a shop to do it for you, no kit.

Talking Re: Headliner failing

I did mine this weekend and changed the color. Please see my posts :

https://www.crossfireforum.org/forum...-help-you.html

I pulled the liner out in 10 min. ( my first)

Cleaned and cleared liner in 1.5 hours taking my time and added varnish to seal and strengthen the liner

Covered the material in .5 hours

Installed liner in .5 hours after working on details.

You drop the liner, turn it and remove it thru the passenger door with the pass. seat tilted forward. it 48" by 48" so it goes out front first with STRESS AND 4 LETTER WORDS......

Got no smell, and a tight cover. My old cover started and fell in like one day....

I also have utube video of upgrades.

Used 2 cans of spray glue. buy a roll of liner and do not unroll it as you can put creases in it if you dont install it then. Trust me and see the photos.

Enjoy WDY

I had mine redone by a top notch upholstery shop for less than $200 with a 3 year warranty. Looks like factory new.

I ordered my material off Amazon. It's actually easy. I can have mine out in 15- minutes and back in just as fast. All of the threads are spot on. Seats forward, head rest laid back as far as they can go. Drop the front down first so it clears the steering wheel, then pull it free from the rear molding. It was a snap. I removed the old liner, scraped the old foam off, and installed the new liner in about two hours. Use lots of glue and work it back one section at a time. Then cut our your head lamp/visor holes etc. It is actually easy.
