The proper way to repair these fallen head liners is to remove all of the interior trim supporting the shell that the material was attached to and to remove the shell from the vehicle. Then removing the old material and cleaning off the rotten foam from the surface of the shell (this is messy).

Once the shell is clean, we glue (and we do mean glue) fresh high quality O.E.M. colored foam backed material back onto the shell with high quality, industrial spray grade glue (not a cheap aerosol form which is inferior for this

type of application). Once the freshly glued headliner is dry enough to handle, the recovered shell is then reinstalled back into vehicle and the supporting trim panels are put back into place giving the headliner a brand new look, feel, and smell again (and no more messy hair doo-s or polished bald spots from your headliner).

  Some people use thumb tacks or staples to temporarily hold the thing off their head but the down side to that is that these tacks fall out and you never know when one is waiting in your seat for you (like the old tack in the teachers seat prank).

Cars with electric sunroofs are more involved and cost more to have done because the sunroof has to be completely removed to remove the interior shell from the car. It really helps to have someone do this for you who really knows what their doing. The proper way to handle these repairs is to service the sunroof while the shell is out of the car (because you have to remove the shell to service the sunroof sooner or later anyway).

Sunroofs service here at Blair's Texas Window Tinting gets the inner portion of the housing pan cleaned, tracks lubed with light oil or dry lube (not grease which gums up over time), all drain hoses unclogged from leaves and debris, and set adjustments are made. These procedures insure the headliner repair is usually a one time trip to the shop.

Some cars out there get even more involved (like some BMWs and a few others) to where the rear windshield has to be removed to get the shell out of the vehicle. These few particular cars have head liner boards too large to pass through any of the doors without damaging the board (which is expensive to replace).

Other older cars with "hung" headliners that are suspended by rods sewn into the headliner and stretched tight along the outer edges generally have to have the front and rear windshields removed along with the weather-stripping above the doors and side glasses. These cars do take more time and shouldn't be rushed to achieve perfection.

Prices vary from car make to car make and is figured on headliner replacement only. seldomly additional parts are needed for repairs and are not included in these prices. Tax is included in the price. These prices are figured to repair headliners properly (not just thrown together in a production like manner).
