Daughter wrecked her car (my car that she was allowed to drive...bad road conditions and an inexperienced driver...I even checked with the witnesses and they said she wasn't going too fast or doing anything wrong). Took the insurance $$ and replaced the car. Got a Jeep Grand Cherokee '97. In-Line 6, good shape, but the headliner was falling down.
So...I looked up on the internet how to do it....pretty simple. Take the trim/visors, etc. off, and pull the headliner board out through the cargo area...scrape off all the old foam, adhesive, fabric, replace in car...right?
Nope...
This car has a dealer added sun-roof. So...no solid headliner board. There's a part of the board over the cargo area, strips going up the side, then a small part above the windshield. A couple of gaps between the board and the sunroof mechanism. Nothing solid to take out.
I covered the sun-roof shade panel with no problems.
However...the only way to get the new headliner in the car is to hang it in place.
Anyone do that before?
Tips/suggestions? Back half, then front half? Start at back and roll forward?
(No...I called the local guys that do it and it's about 1/2 the total cost of the car...so it's a DIY project or it doesn't get done...). Have the spray adhesive and foam backed fabric roll already.
Thanks!
