    A big thanks to "Headliners Only" in Tampa Bay for fixing up my Honda Ridgeline's headliner. This video is to show what is required for a proper headliner repair.

    I'm in Michigan, I just purchased a VW that came up from Florida and has headliner issues. The dealership I got it from tried to fix it in their shop and ended up ripping the fabric. They gave me more than enough money to have it repaired, but the problem is that we don't have headliner shops in Michigan. It's not an issue here like Florida. Makes me think I should drive down to Tampa to visit my in-laws and have this guy do it for me.

    Some laundry detergent on a nylon brush really gets the old foam and glue residue off. Then rinse well and let it dry in the sun. Just did my Volkswagen's headliner. Way more work than I thought it would be, but it looks good as new.

    You can actually pre spray the roof panel and let the glue go off. Then lay the fabric over the board and pull back to half way to spray with contact, the wet glue will reactivate the glue on the roof panel. My experience you may ask.. I spent many years bonding rubber/foam to floors, and bonding carpet to the rubber/foam using this method.

    Driving with the windows down and parking in the Florida sun are the worst things for a headliners stability, gas fumes decompose the oem adhesive, so don't leave a nearly empty fuel can in the car especially with the windows up.

    LoL! I used to do several of these a day at my dad's auto upholstery shop when I was 12 y.o. Seriously, it's not that big of a deal to DIY. You just need to unsecure the molding and lights, bring it down, angle it out the front door. Get a wire brush and scrape out the old foam, then get spray adhesive and spray both the headliner and replacement foam, and just push it down, trim the edges, wrap it over the back side of the head liner, and spray that down, and just put it back in. If a 12 y.o can do it, anyone can do it.
