Anyone know if a 4th gen headliner will fit a 3rd gen? My husband thinks it will fit but were not sure. I dont feel like paying 100.00 bucks for this. Please someone let me know by Tuesday...

 

No idea... but that is an interesting question... I need a headliner too so I'd appreciate an answer to this. Are fourth-gen headliners noticably different than third-gens? Would it be more asthetically pleasing?

 

I don't think it would... have you seen the tech article on this website? There's an article in the thirdgen.org tech section on how to re-do the headliner. Also do a <a href="search.php?s="><img src="images/top_search.gif" alt="Search" border="0"></a> in the Body/Interior forum (this forum) for "headliner", a few guys have posted tips on it.

 

Thanks for the info. The junk yard actually has some third gens with headliners so they said I could get one if I pull it for 10.00 so im getting it tomorrow.. 8 screws and its mine.. woohoo

 

Ten bucks? That's it?

Dang... I gotta start lookin' then!

 

The 4th gen roof is completely different...it won't fit. Recover your stock one if the board is ok...maeterial should be no more than about $20.

 

That won't work for me, I don't have the stock headliner.

Previous owner made something and put purple velvety crap all over it. Blah.

 

i have yet to see a good one in a salvage yard...maybe you could get one of the ABS repros from Hawk's or TGR.

 

I hope so. Ten bucks is much better than $150 or whatever the new ones are...

 

I love the junk yard where I live. Their really great to work with. I burned my old one cause it got folded and it was red. Maybe I should have kept the board oh wells.. I think I might just try and find a bunch of headliners and sell them.. My husband took to hatch motors and put them in his tool box so we got them for free.. And i know two people who would pay like 30 or 40 dollars for them.. I rock at finding deals let me tell you all. I got whole grey interior besides headliner and seats for 75.00.

 

I pulled a junkyard headliner.. it's in my car now. Thing was perfect!

A few months later, it started sagging... now, 2 years later, it looks like total ***. At least I can use the board... I gotta get to a fabric store. I hope I can find the exact color, or I'll have to redo the sunvisors and sail panels, too.

 

You're probably gonna want to do the sails and visors when you're done, anyway. Mine are supposed to be black, but when I put in the new black headliner, the visors and sails look gray! I'll be off to purchase more material soon.
