I've never done it but I saw some material at a fabric store. It was grey with a thin foam backing (actually looked like it was made to be a headliner). I plan to use this in my car to replace the blanket (yes, a beige blankie) that a PO glued up there. There's no foam left so I can just pull down the blanket, clean the surface as best as possible, loosen the trim, spray on some adhesive, and go to town. -- Christian '85 900 8V (160K miles) On Wed, 19 Feb 2003 21:56:25 -0000, "tom" <tom_mchughnopsamrsat.com> wrote: >I'll be replacing the headliner one day (sags): >I wonder what are my options: >1. yep: headliner from another car >2. get some material from saab ? and try stick it to the foam. >3.
