Headliner

I got sagging on my headliner right at the passaneger side t-top... would y'all reccomend pulling out the old liner, cleaning it and reappling w/adhesive, or just replacing it with an aftermarket kit. I have ne tears or holes in it, just ripples which could be stretched out, I suppose. also- any experience with the center console fixing or just replacing; I have that asphalt appearance to it.
thanks

Yeah Skully, verry nice work man. I am putting foam under mine also. And recovering it with a grayish silver fabric. It is going to look sweet. You inspired me bro', and I have already started on mine.

Any good fabric store should have vinyl. I got all my foam & velvet at a fabric store. I think I was the only guy in there.

Rod, Sad but true, Molson ain't so Canadian anymore ...something about some company down south bought the whole darn factory(ies?)...pretty good way to get some good ol' 5% CDN suds down to the states I say!

We Canucks love to share the goodness!

Yeah, that figures. Us damn Yankees try to Americanize everything. That thread made me want to bust out my old Bob and Doug McKenzie "Great white north" vinyl and give it a listen though. Classic stuff So I guess the new Molson would be considered a "strange brew"?
