Take all the old fabric off, get 3M spray adhesive, get new fabric of your choice, spray cardboard part of headliner, apply fabric, roll out the wrinkles, cut the edges, install is reverse of removal.

Same here i just went to the local craft store and pick out some light weight vinyl and used that on my headliner and reisntalled it i really like the look and how easy it is to clean.

As for the headliner glue i just used 3M headliner adhesive from autozone.

Default Stock speaker mount?

You're saying the roof speaker mount is stock? Did it come like that off of the production line? I've never seen that before.

you are talking about the whole speaker console hanging there in my photo? If so then many models did, Not all though. My old 1993 didnt have one in it.
