93 Z J Headliner
Hi Guys,
This might be a question for a more general auto forum, but you all have been really sharp on things in the past. I trust y'all. Anyway, driving down the road the other day, I felt something touch the top of my head. Thinking it was a fly or something, I brushed at it and found the headliner material hanging down over my head. Looking further (after I stopped of course) I see it's coming loose from several places and looking like the devil! Seems like it was really humid to make this come loose. Question is, how can I re-attach it to the under lining? I'm hoping somebody might say use a hairdryer since the adhesive is heat activated. I haven't tried anything yet. Any thoughts? Thanks guys.

You are in for a miserable job. The only fix short of removing the
headliner and replacing the cloth after cleaning off the old glue/foam is those upholstery screws and maybe some strapping.... http://www.headlinerkit.com/j.shtml The above site give some basic directions.... We did ours this summer and got our own fabric and used 3M headliner spray glue.
