Best place to get an headliner

I am looking for a factory fit, med. gray headliner with board for a t-top car. I know this question has been asked, but info changes. I have heard 2 different companies did t-tops for 3rd gens. How do you know which one did the tops? My door sill says fisher. Thanks!! Oh and I have looked around already, but who's seems to fit the best with the closest color match.

Re: Best place to get an headliner

If you have an 85 as your profile states, then you probably have factory ttops. The leading edge and trailing edge of the aftermarket sets have an edge trim since the roof sheetmetal was cut. The factory roof rolls into the ttop channel. For the price, I would look at 1AAuto for their set. You get the ABS liner with the foam backed material already done.

I'm taking my car in to an upholstery shop to get mine done. I am pretty sure my backing board is like new since it has never gotten wet.

Yeah, I took part of the headliner off to check out the board, no signs of discoloration from water (dark spots) but rather just crumbly from the sun. I hope the A1 fits well, it seems the cheapest for the price. Whole set for 300 bucks.

I've bought two now from Hawks Third Gen and been very happy with the results both times.
