    Can anyone share their experience/solutions to the dreaded falling headliner problem on Subs. Are aftermarket versions available?
    Appreciate your thoughts.

    The foam breaks down and separates. Some try to re-glue it. It won

    I may be to late, but a trim shop should be able to get 60" or 62" headliner material for you. The best glue to use is the same glue the trim shops use for headliners. Two quarts should do the job, depending on how you spray it on. You can use a brush but its messy. The water base glues don't hold up as well. You can pick up a cheap spray gun at aparts store ?. 3M makes a glue in a spray can, part # 809000 (I think thats it) I am not crazy about using it but if your in a bind it will work. Pepboys also sells kits for cars, I dont know if they have them for subs. good luck [img]smile.gif[/img]
