I got it from JoAnne's. It's a fabric store here in Cali. Just ask for headliner fabric. It was about 35 bucks for the fabric. The spray glue is about 10 bucks a can. I used 3 of them. It's made by Permatex and comes in an orange and blue can.

No it's pretty easy taking the old foam and fabric off. Basically just pull the old cloth off and take a green scratch pad to the foam. It works wonders. A few of them and maybe a really stiff tooth brush. Have a shop vac handy as well. Shoot me a PM if you get stuck or have questions.

Thanks appreciate it. Just picked up a OHC so I'm going to do my headliner at the same time. Hopefully picking up all Limited interior pieces this weekend with power elec. seats.

I'm pretty jealous over those limited pieces. I've been looking for some for a very long time.

Well SYE and Adams Driveshaft are in. All I can say is AMAZING !!!! I feel like I just came out of the stone age. I'll post up some pics tomorrow morning. The install was done by a local shop:

Awesome guys. Very knowledgeable, professional, and highly recommended.

Now that I can go fast again I realize I have a death wobble after 60mph or so. Not all the time, but when it hits it hits hard. So looks like I'll need to climb back under and tighten everything again tomorrow as well. Also install my new transmission mount. The stock one is shot due to the previous transmission pan seal leaking. Fun Fun.

Installed the new transmission mount and tightened the trac bar. Hopefully the little bit it was loose was the cause of the DW. New trans mount on left. Old on right.
