Re: XJ Headliner delamination
little trim screws spaced evenly apart does not look too bad....total cost
$3.00 and about 20 minutes of time.
use a box or whatever pattern you like to space out the screws
this will hold me until I decide to do something more permanent. ;-)

If you want to make that look a little better try this trick.
Get some thin pressboard, metal, or very heavy non-corrugated cardboard
and wrap it with a cloth of your choice, securing with spray
adhesive. Use this strip with those screws to hold the headliner
in place. Now you have something that looks like a custom headliner.
