I think i saw on SLD's website that they do headliners...

I did the headliner in my talon last summer....use 3M General Trim Adhesive -clear #08088 You can pick it up at any auto parts store...I got mine at napa. Make sure you pick up a wire brush and get ALL the excess fabric off the cardboard...and then spray the board up and down....and back and forth. Get a friend to hold one end of the fabric up off the board, while you lay it down a strip at a time....its really easy...and worth the work!

the spray on headliner adhesive (3M or others) works great. The "trick" is to spray it on both the cloth material AND the cardboard and let it set-up a bit before placing the cloth on the cardboard, believe it or not it bonds better when nearly dry than it does when it is wet. Read any quality can of Spray Adhesive or Contact Cement and they will tell you that.

i took my eclipse to Elite Trim shop and they did an awesome job i dont remember wat the headliner cost alone but for that carpets, cargo area and visors it was only a little over 400 dollars.

Thought I had seen it on Main and Univ. last night, what color is it???

good luck gluing the T/A headliners yourself. We fought with the one on our trans am for a while and then just took it down. 2 or 3 years ago we had it redone at a professional upholstery place and its been great ever since.

I'm by no means an expert, but when I went to autobody school my instructor said not to even mess with "trim" or "headliner" adhesives and just go straight for the stuff they use for vinyl tops. Clean the cardboard and headliner then spray the stuff out of a cheap paint gun. One good coat on each one, let it tack up for a little bit then carefully stick the headliner to the cardboard trying not to get any runs in it. It's been a couple of years but I'm pretty sure that's all there is to it. Good luck
