What is headliner repair?
A sagging roof lining re-glued or re-covered so it no longer drops onto your head.
Over time the foam backing on a headliner breaks down, often faster in hot NZ summers, and the fabric starts to sag. The fix is usually to remove the headliner board, strip the old fabric and foam, and re-cover it with new material bonded with heat-resistant adhesive.

Why it matters
A sagging headliner can obstruct your view and fails to look cared for.
