It must be removed and redone by you or a shop. No other way.Some guys manage to get material and do a beautifull job. I'm a clutz. I carefully remove the liner and have a shop recover it then I reinstall it. Saves a few bucks. You will break the trim clips,they are available.

Most of the headliners backing material is usually cracked or very brittle and the foam that is underneath is usually deteriorated or crumbling apart. The best solution is to get a new ABS molded plastic headliner. http://www.automotiveinteriors.com/abs_ ... boards.htm

That sucks man, i can't believe they don't have your car but they aren't the only ones who sell them just do a search. Well as soon as you sit on a couple of pushpins this will become your top priority, been there before ,,,OUCH!!

I think I did a post on how to redo your headliner in my build thread. It would be somewhere between page 40 and 50 and should be illustrated. I just did it a month ago, so it can't be too many pages back.

BTW, I used an old shell and cleaned it off. I think the total price was around $50 including fabric and glue.

Cut out a small piece from behind the sunvisors and take that to a fabric store. Might have to go to a larger town/city to get an exact match.
