Sommevr6 10 Posted September 14, 2016 Have had some work done on the corrado, part of which was replacing the rubber seal at the base of the aerial which I was advised meant going in via the roof lining. To cut a long story short the headlining has now started sagging and come away at the rear of the sunroof. The foam behind looks shot- is it possible to save the original material, clean it and re-use ( has anyone done it?) or is it a case of getting new and as near a match as possible as I assume the original material may no longer be available. Whichever, I can already see my wallet opening and the pennies flying away!!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Philly-R6 0 Posted September 14, 2016 I experienced something similar with my headliner and had the sunroof panel and headliner re-covered for £200. The chap removed the old material, the crumbling foam backing and the old glue, then recovered them with new material. The material used is similar in colour and texture (not exactly what VW supplied, but close) and comes with the spongey backing applied. If you are in South Manchester, I used a chap called Pete Lenton in Cheadle. The difficult part is refitting the headliner without leaving dimples in the new fabric with your fingers. Pete told me to use clean sponges to support the headliner while handling it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
