Roof falling down

I just realized that the roof is hanging down on my drivers side ceiling. It looks ghetto and i want to fix it. What do i do? My brother said there is some kind of spray to fix it or something. Anybody had this problem and know what works?? Thanks.

T-top conversion would fix it!
I've never heard of a spray but they make little push tacks in grey black and tan, my local car quest has them on the counter.

They do make a spray glue just make sure that it does not say on the back of the can "NOT for use on foam headliners" they sell both types at the autoparts store. The glue that says not for use will eat the foam off of the headliner backer and a new headliner will be in order then. Just cut a small hole in the fabric and spray around and smooth out the ripples. godd luck!

i tried the spray glue in a can that was made for that stuff, but it fell back down in a couple weeks. the backing on the liners starts braking down, or off.


there is a guy here in Waco that said he would fix mine for $60, if i pulled it out. $120 if he pulled it out. bobs upolsry is the name of the place if you want to give him a call.

Hell, as cheap as it is just recover your headliner. Can be done for like less than $30 and in a couple hours if you take your time and your headliner board is good. Do a search.

I replaced mine in my Grandam $30.00. My only suggestion would to use 3M super 88 spray adhesive instead of the adhesive they sell for the headliners. When i did mine i used the supplied adhesive and within 2-weeks it started to sag but in the areas i used the super 88 it didn't.
