headliner needed!

I need a headliner for my 84 berlinetta and the trim piece by the hatch. I love in Michigan, northern Michigan to be more precise. If anybody knows anybody or had anything please let me know. Thanks in advance

They've been making reproduction headliners for a while now, check all the usual parts sellers.

As for the trim piece, I think Hawk's is working to get it reproduced with reinforced screw holes.

Classic Industries sells the material or the complete headliners, sail panels, and visors as a set. Pricing is not bad either. As for the trim panel, happy hunting, can't help ya there.

I was in JoAnn Fabric's looking for foam and seen some rolls of headliner material of different colors and was pretty nice stuff with a cheap price.

If ya want to do a quick fix, get some of that and some 3M Adheisive, pull yours out and redo it that way. It be better than nothing!

Re: headliner needed!

Have you tried the local junk yards or craigslist for cars being parted out? I've heard mixed reviews on the ABS ones and it would probably cost less even if you had to recover it.

Well I've havent really looked at ALL the yards yet but I always check for a good one when I'm there getting other parts (about 2-3 times a month) and they are always beat up,and torn...What really pees me off is someone trying to get a 5.00 roof light will tear out a perfectly good headliner and break everything else off insted of unscrewing something and destroying a few hundred dollars worth of hard to find parts for something stupid....I have lots of time , I just know I'll need a dash pad and a headliner when I get finished with the body so I'm putting my feelers out there, like which aftermarket ones you guys like most if I cant find anything at the yards...

Re: headliner needed!

Yeah, I hear you on that. They also like to rip the speaker covers off instead of removing the one screw that holds it in.
Some junk yards post a list of cars as they come in, so that might help if you can get out to one of those quick enough.
