Hi Debz bought the material from the upholstery workshop just below the Cucador turn off on the main road rhs where speedy fit are and a new rastro i noticed as i was leaving, only cost 12 euros. To do the job properly yo have to remove the headlining board , usually just held in place by sun blinds , grab handles and plastic trim . Once the old board is out be carefull as they are usually made from compressed cardboard or similar, you have to remove all the old foam, usually turned into powder, the reason for the material turning into curtains. If you need any more help let me know, Regards Rob

Hi thanks for your replies.,

Rob, I have an opel vectra., made a right mess of it I have., cut it thinking i could fix it and its 100 times worse now., boo hoo., hate getting into my lovely motor now, also taller people keep getting their heads wafted with it., not a problem for me when in the passenger seat, cos im a little shortass.....

so where did you buy the headliner material then Rob., and yeh been looking at the adhesive., looked on ebay, has to be some sort of heat resistant doesn't it....

you need a contact adhesive its called dunlop 1358 its like evo stick but can withstand high temps
you also need a dispenser that looks like an oil can but with a brush instead of a spout .
