Headliner

hey guys I was just wondering if any of you have tried this guy for a headliner? Doesnt seem too pricy, but then again I have no upholstery skills to try and make my own. Let me know if you have one! thanks

Ya I ordered that one it seemed to work fine, Its a bitch to do though took me 2 days to put it in, now I know why they charge 500 to put one in. Make sure your bows are nice and clean otherwise it will snag on them and put wrinkels in it.

I bought one. It was ok. And yep they are a bitch to put in. You also to trim the material to fit the pillars. I had my front and rear window out . ALso i used about 200 of those black paper clips (the kind with the folding squeeze levers. Once i got the front stretched to the front window, i used the clips to hold it in place, that way it can be adjusted. after all in place i unclipped a section aplied Contact cement, then re clipped. Take your time, and it will look good. I am now having a custom one done.

I can take some, yes I used a lot of the clips just keep streaching till you get it nice and tight then glue
