Subject: Re: Saggy Headlining Question (UK)


The lining material that Saab uses is a type of velour fabric with a foam baking that is bonded to a formed cardboard liner. The foam breaks down over time. Regluing yields poor results, since you are merely gluing the disintegrating foam. Most windshield replacement shops can replace liners. The old fabric is removed, and the foam is scraped from the cardboard. New foam backed material is bonded to the cardboard...expect another 10+ years before the new liner sags. This is neither a difficult or expensive repair.
