View Full Version : Roof Lining
The Photographer

The roof lining in my 96 Te is starting to sag in many places , ive had roof linings replaced before for around 300 might have to follow this route again.
My Question is ....
Should i replace it with the standard Light Grey Material or something else
my options are pretty much any colour of any material or leather,
Ideas people ???
thanx

Personally i would stay with the factory colour otherwise you would have to colour match the other trim pieces, like door opening strips, a,b,c-piller moulds... but its up to you in the end might look cool in black leather....

i say let it hang and just put in thumb tacs every where so it looks like the inside of a mental institue room

ive used little bobby pins ... but not all over the place, just around the edges, you cant notice em when not looking for em
problem is, is that it still hits my head a little in the middle
does anyone know anyone [in Perth] that can fix this ??

I recently bought my TS and discovered after my GF :poke: told me, that the hoodlining was STAPLED into place.
Imagine the shock, horror and laughter!
:shock:
:nutkick:
:badgrin:
:clap:
i got my roof lining done after barely being able to see because of it. lol
I got it replaced with black instead of grey and i havent colour coded the a,b,c pillars but it still looks good. I'll post a pic up to show u wat it looks like. Keep in mind i got a 2nd gen so the pillar shapes look different, and also keep in mind i dont have a digital camera and i am using my phone, really crap quality

do it yourself.
its not that hard... just time consuming..
and if you do do it.. use a spray glue not a tubed glue.
i did my mates old commodore.. came up sweet as.. took me the whole saturday but i got paid :)
