today i got my new headliner installed, done by myself and my dad, it came out no less than perfect 😀 ! i did black headliner in maroon interior, which works cuz i have a black t type steering wheel, and black floor mats. ill post a pic later.
 
I need to install mine. Its been sitting in the shed for over 2 months!

Hey guys. I made a how-to video a while ago on replacing a headliner and have it on my youtube channel.

It should help you out if you have never done this before. I would love to hear what you guys did as well.

This was the first time I've ever replaced a headliner. I actually didn't take the board out of the car, saved me a lot of time and aggrivation.
 
Thanks for the video. I actually bought a used one off craigslist. It came with a new board with new material. i need to order a new dome light though before i hit the task because mine is going to break when i try to remove it from the car.
 
Looks good. I prefer header bond glue in a spray can or dap contact & trim adhesive through a spray gun over that 3m stuff. Both set up better and I've never had an issue with either like with the 3m stuff.

Don't say that. The lens probably will, mine did, but the chrome surround shouldn't break. The hard part is removing the push nuts that hold the surround on. You should be able to get the lens at pepboys, thats where I got mine, $3. If you buy it online, you'll get ripped off, by the time shipping is added, it'll be like $15 for just the lens.
