- Re-trimming the headlining of my Land Rover Defender 110 was by far the most difficult job I've done on this vehicle to date! Not for the faint hearted.

I was laughing..knew you were going to complain throughout. Thank you for guiding me, planning to get my defender soon
Looks really good man! Hand prints and all lol 👌
You made a slight mistake that will make them go soggy again (not your problem if selling on) , once dry, paint them with emulsion this waterproofs them. the fabric sticks well to the dried emulsion. You should have used 4 way stretch camper wall carpet, it's a doddle getting in to fit the contours. (I see you learned this by the end) :)
That’s a really good point! I might do it again in the future and rectify those mistakes! I think a darker 4 way stretch material would be better! Thanks for the pointers mate.
Did mine recently. Easiest way to get the clips out is to pull them enough to be able to cut them off, you’ll most likely need to replace them anyway. My headliner was also damp so painted it with PVA. I then got a trimmer to fit and use a material without a foam backing, the type used by VW in their t4 vans, not exactly factory but near enough and looks good. I Propped the headliner with some timber trimmed the fir tree clips and bobs your uncle all back in in 20 minutes (only a 90)
Hardest job was getting the rear view mirror to clip back on.
Well done anyway👍👍
That’s really good mate! I wish I knew the PVA trick, I would’ve definitely done that. I might even redo mine with that t4van material in the future. lol 😂 I know what you mean about getting the rear view mirror back in. Mines still out.
I've removed mine few years ago, and every few months i'm thinking about fixing it and refitting in my 110. But after watching this video i think I have more interesting things to do :)
As for condensation, have you checked seal above front window? Also front corners of the roof above that window? Those spots are not so obvious as safari windows for the water ingress.
Great job btw.
Yeah it’s a pain :) Thanks for the comment. The things you mention are next on the list. I’ll go through the water ingress manual and check all the known points.
Turned out great - but I’m dreading doing mine now.
Haha, sorry mate, I don’t mean to discourage you but there are some great and very knowledgeable comments on here which I’m learning from too. I might even redo mine.
Nice one, Dale!
Thanks bro. I took all your suggestions, I hope it paid off.
The Qualified Captain 👌
Haha 😜
Nice pal, looks great. Quite a task though.
Thanks Brad, so awesome that you watched. It was a heck of a job dude. One which I’ll probably have to redo in the future 😅
I one had to remove the headliner from a discovery 2 to replace the key fob sensor. Had to remove half the car to get it out!
Haha that sounds horrendous. I’d love to do a disco 2 build some day!!
Had planned to give this a go too with a black alcantara type material - now having second thoughts 😅
I think go for it mate. Someone commented that I should’ve used 4 way stretch material and I couldn’t agree more. I think I just used the wrong stuff 🙄 hopefully you’ll have more luck with it!
If you think that's bad... try changing the side-panel windows in a Series 2/3...
Oh dear... I haven't ventured there yet.
😂😂
Hahaha! I knew you would be laughing at me. Honestly bro, what a horrible job.
Great video, I could literally feel the frustration 😂😅😅
