take the interior of the roof out and make friends with the quick pray on adhesive i rekon... it worked well for a pulsar... if you want to get adventurous, buy more fabric and replace the lot (but we used paint on quick adhesive for that)...

Yep, spray adhesive doesn't work - tried that, waste of time
I bought a good headlining out of an ED for $20 and a mate and I put it in one afternoon
We ended up taking the front seats out to make it easier
Two mates with clean hands would be even better : )

G'day mate, it is a cardboard moulded board underneath it, and there is foam between. to do it properly, you have to take it out the car, peel the velour back and gently scrub the foam off the board to clean it.. take car not to take divits out of the cardboard,

buy about 2-3 metres (measure your old one) of velour from a material supplier (vyfab is good, in moorabbin). And spray on contact adhesive both the cardboard and the velour.. Two people, smootth it down and walah
