Ohhhh I know now... Take out the whole headliner and recover it with some new headliner glue and it should work nicely. I'll get some pictures of my friends headliner that we just did a few days ago. It turned out awesome.

Where I can buy headliner fabric ? ( My location dont have Jo-Ann fabrics store )

Walmart has that stuff... I think autozone might too.

Yeah, you can get headliner fabric from most car parts places like Pep Boys, Autozone, etc. If they don't have the color your looking for, go through the phone book and look for upholstry shops in your area. That's where I got my headliner material for my old eclipse. I also picked up spray-on glue from a Pep Boys that worked great. The whole job only took me about 2 hours to do and it's fairly easy.

One suggestion that I would give you is that once you get the old headliner out and start ripping off the old material, make sure to clean up the surface real well (get all the old dangling brown foam pieces off first) before you start spraying new glue to put the new fabric on, or else you won't have a good surface for the glue to adhere to.

I check walmart and auto zone for headliner fabric, none of them carry them. I go home rip off the old headliner fabric ( all that shit get in my hair and my car, so dirty ), By the way all the button that hold the headliner, it broken where can I get the replacment ?

Looks good to me. Try it and see how it works

Go on ebay, you will find the headliner material there. all you will need is 1.5 yards by 60". You can get all that for like $15. Thats what i did when changing mine.

ALSO GET TWO CANS! YOU WILL NEED EXTRA GLUE AND WAIT THE FIVE MINIUTES FOR THE GLUE TO GET TACKY!
