Hi,
Ive been looking on ebay recently and have seen headlinings for sale like this one

http://cgi.ebay.com.au/HEADLINING-Suit- ... 240%3A1318

Was wondering if anyone has fitted one? or information on fitting headlinings in general?
Cheers,
Joe

Thanks heaps for the link. Answered pretty much all of my questions on how to do it. Just got to save up for a headlining now and get a good one.

mine is from this guy, the only problem with it is the material is actually vinyl like you get at spotlight or those places, not the original material.. mine went in fairly easily except for the hole for the sunroof which would be tricky with any headlining. i cant remember what i payed for mine i was probably the idiot who paid more for it but i wanted it quickly so meh

if you can spare the cash get a trimmer to fit it.. if not its not overly hard.. just fiddly and frustrating

Does it include the small strip that runs under the rear window?

I purchased one last year and it fitted OK, and it included the two panels at the back plus the strip under the rear window. Fitted OK for the price, one of the seams was not perfectly straight but once fitted and stretched it was OK.
