headliner question..

[Eric_R_Kissell at email.whirlpool.com]

Use long pins. The ones that look like a 'T' that are used sometimes for
furniture. Available at your closest fabric store. I did my 5000cstq and it
looks great.

Funny, you bring this up.  Mine is starting to sag. An aoutomotive interiors
place says the only way to fix this is to replace it.   $275 to re-apolster
(sp) the whole interior ceiling minus the sun roof and the visors.  Doesn't
sound too bad to me.  They said it will take them a whole day to do the job.

I guess what happens is there is a foam backing on the fabric that is glued
to the particle board.  The fabricx delaminates from this.  According to
this installer, re-gluing doesn't work as it only lasts temporarily.

he told me the only temorary fix are thumb tacks.    Anyone know of some
decorative Audi emblem thumb tacks :-)
