it doesn't take a pro... Posted by Larry West [Email] (#1140) [Profile/Gallery] (more from Larry West) on Fri, 1 Feb 2008 11:25:04 In Reply to: Thanks..but, DirkRi, Fri, 1 Feb 2008 04:27:06 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
...to re-do a sagging headliner.
While I don't have specifics for this model, it is pretty easy to remove a headliner. I've done three or four on 99s & C900s, so the process should be shockingly similar. And since it's a hatchback, it's REALLY easy.
You'll need a couple cans of 3m trim adhesive, and a couple yards of headliner material. Most stuff you buy is really twice as thick as needed, but someone out there has the thin stuff Saab uses. After you get the headliner out, carefully pull off the remaining cloth. Then go over the entire surface with a brush, to take off the remaining foam bits. Spray adhesive on both sides, and roll the new headliner on. DON'T stretch the material in the crevices. If anything, bunch it in there a bit, otherwise when the material shrinks it'll pull taut and off the backing.
Good luck!
