Hi Guys
Have had a quick search for a guide to recover the headliner in a Mk3 but nothing came back.
Does anybody know how to do it or a guide please!
Cheers, Mitch

remove stuff
drop the lining
Apply TOP GRADE HEAT RESISTANT AUTO MOTIVE GLUE
apply new fabric.
curse - a lot - you will have wrinkles
unstick yourself from headlining
replace headlining
replace trims you ripped out 5 hours ago and have now forgotten how it goes an with what screws
:grin: :laugh: :grin: :laugh:
Good Luck

Well i recovered it last night! was fairly easy with 2 people doing it - going to be refitting it tonight!
-
did you get any pictures or anything wanted to do this to mine but bit to scared as the last owner smoked in the can and left the sun roof open, some water damange around that area wanted to re line the thing!
-
sadly i didnt get any pics, i think taking it out of the car was the most annoying bit!
I will try and find the guide i used from on here on how to do it!
