redoing the headliner
alright my headliner needs to be replaced badly. i have a 97 sport with the sound bar built into the headboard. how hard is that piece to take out?
also do i have to use headliner material because i am wanting to do mine in camoflage and it is about 19 dollars a yard for the camo headliner material.
i found other cam that is not headliner material at half the price.
what is a good glue to use?
any other things i should know about pulling the headliner out?

If u like I can take pics and show u its not Hard, secret is clean board with a piece of foam. U have to get all the old material off because headliner material is not forgiving, it will show any trash left one board. Also when u lay it u need to put a plastic bag on your hand and let it fall naturally, its will look like trash if u stretch it. Best policy is to use a yard stick in middle of board and do one half at a time.

Ahh my headliner needs some work somethin awful... I've heard the 3M glue will fall back down soon after, but maybe because he did it in the summer? I'll def be keeping an eye on this...

most people who have troubles with it either dont remove the foam, or dont get it off all the way. You need to get ALL of the foam off or it will not stick.
