so im about to try this soon, what all exactly has to be done to completely remove the headliner?
you mean taking it out? you have to pop out all the plastic trimming from the door pillars/aches, and also remove the hand grips, rearview mirror, the buttons along the top center and the dome light. there is also a trim piece along the trunk, its rubber.
the headliner will then simply drop.
considering doing mine in my latest wagon- but i have so many project
for that wagon its insain... but im on the verge--- anyone measure or
know how long the wagon headliner is????

I do believe that they mentioned 3 yards by 45 inches. Maybe give yourself another yard for 'whoops' moments. Once my wagon comes out of the mechanic's shop I'm going to do this. Want to find out if anyone has step by step on what parts to remove so that the head liner comes out.
i used some extra strength spray adhesive too but it wasnt strong enough cuz its drooping in places now so ill have to redo hopefully walmart still has the same fabric left
while i was at it i did my rear speaker pods too
It looks so good that I have been looking at fabric online for the last 2 hours. What the fuck is wrong with me? Let us leave that question unanswered. I found a pretty good cheap online fabric supplier. http://www.craftconn.com They even sell so-called "fat quarters" HAHA! Unfortunately it is just a new method they have devised for measuring and selling fabric.
has anybody tried this on a headliner thats got alot of what looks like weather cracks? mine looks kinda bad. if you have tried this on a cracked one did it come out good?

Yes, it should work fine...mine was cracked when I did it.
Also guys, when you have your headliners down, I'd take the opportunity to reseal the roof skeleton to get the roof some more support.
My brother runs his own upholstery biz and he redid mine in blue versus the stock white..really offsets the blue/white interior...will post pics soonest
did mine over the 4th of july weekend and i really like the way it came out. most people are not to fond of the pattern but i like it the locktite spray seems to of worked really good too

Took me three times to get the headliner to stick, but I'm pretty damn happy with how this turned out...
"yo momma's so fat, you used her pajamas for a custom headliner!"

Ohhhhkay. You mean just gluing the roof skin back onto the "spine" support? Or you mean something more involved?
Now to get those front seats re-done...:-P
