Welcome to TGO, Tommy. Since I prefer to see what I'm buying and since junking yarding can be very rewarding, I'd take the time to visit several yards, if that's possible (I used to take a day and hit as many yards as possible, sometimes a half dozen or so). To save time/travel, pick up the phone and do some calling.

Also, take notice that his site as a classifieds section.

Ebay would be my last choice.

Oh, shipping a headliner would be difficult and expensive.

Re: Need help !

If you are needing everything then I believe that JamesC is entirely right. Look to the junk yards first. If you find a complete one then it should have all screws, light, everything. You may find some parts for the headliner etc. that you did not think about and much easier than piecing together to get all the parts. Also who knows what else you might find for your car.

Definitely the way to go, although I bought my headliner/sail panels/visors in a package deal new on ebay a couple of years ago. Seems like it wasn't too expensive. We'll see what happens when i'm ready to install it.
