Just R&R'd the headliner - R50

The whole job took about 4 hours. $14 in fleece cloth and $13 in adhesive. It was tedious, but not hard.

Did you remove the old material first?

Fabric from JoAnne Fabrics. Yes, I removed the old material and adhesive/foam underlayment.


These are the steps I followed:

Very nice. I like the fabric you picked. Might be cool to black out the pillars and handles.

Thanks! I thought about painting the pillars black after I put everything back together. But by that point, taking them off was about the last thing I wanted to do. BTW-if anyone else is thinking about doing this, I would recommend using "fleece" cloth as I did. Lots of great choices and still has the padded feel.
