Been trolling through loads of threads on saggy headlings , and still going


But the only info thats significant and Missing ? is where to get a matching material ?.


Seems it been done loads of times but no one seems to remmener where the stuff came from ?

Got a ZR and at Zt to do, and a 260 seriously considering a sag ?

Most car upholstery firms do roof linings-whether they would be a source for diy customers??? Chris.S

Have no experience, but have read a recommendation from either this forum or one of the FB groups for our cars. The swatch in the link shows a colour that looks similar to smokestone.

Default Head lining

Hi, I haven't had to do any of my MGR's but I did my other halve RR P38 headliner and boot carpet, I used this place, based in Sandbach, Cheshire

MARTRIM

Fortunately I could go over and collect, and the warehouse is stuffed to the rafters with material and they sell the spray adhesive as well.

I would go a completely different way too, I would take a leaf out of Audi’s book and have the lining and the upper trims done in a medium or dark grey, think that would suit an my much better than what was fitted from factory.
