Headlining is Falling Down!
« on: 31 January 2007, 13:08 »
Hi.

Went out yesturday in my golf and noticed that the NSR Headlining (above back seat n/s) is all flopping down  :cry:

How the hell do i fix it back up? It looks a mission to get to it as i would need to start from the very back and work my way
to the loose bit.

What holds it up?

I too would be interested to know what holds this up, mine is sagging badly at the back.

I tried spray glue but that lasted about 2 weeks....

Any ideas?

Good, I'm not alone! Mine's been "en flop" at the back now for a few weeks, and I noticed tonight that it's having a moment around the front by the windscreen.
I'll try the "quality" spray glue approach, but does anyone know where you can get a headlining that isn't black from? I like the black, but it just seems to make the interior seem a little... er.. dark.

Easy enough to fit? Was yours a sunroof or non sunroof? I've always had trouble fitting headlinings (albeit I've never done a Golf one)...

yeah i have a sun roof, thats the hardest part, but still fairly easy, just gotta have a fair bit of patience putting the strip around the edge back on.
