Is professional installation for an ABS Headliner required?
No, you can install an ABS headliner yourself with some patience and perseverance over a weekend. These ABS Headliners are easier to install than the original headliners. We recommend watching a few online tutorials beforehand to ensure a smooth process.
Is this a factory replacement headliner?
No, this is an aftermarket headliner made from ABS plastic.
What is ABS Plastic and why is it used for replacement headliners?
ABS plastic, short for Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene, is a tough yet lightweight material. It's a popular choice for headliners because it resists bending and holds its shape over time, unlike fabric or fiberboard headliners that can sag. This makes ABS headliners a durable and long-lasting choice for classic car restorations. Many customers also find them easier to install than the original headliners.
Does this headliner come in color options?
No, ABS headliners typically come in black only and can be installed as is. They can also be painted or covered in a material and color of your choice if you prefer.
What tools and products are needed to install an ABS Headliner?
For Removal:
- Staple remover (if your car's headliner is stapled)
- Trim removal tools (plastic pry tools to avoid damaging trim pieces)
- Screwdriver
For Installation:
- Spray adhesive or contact cement (ensure compatibility with ABS plastic)
- Upholstery scissors or sharp utility knife
- Heat source (hairdryer or steamer) for better ABS plastic manipulation
- Upholstery roller tool (to ensure even adhesive application)
- Helper (highly recommended!)
Other supplies:
- Safety gloves
- Drop cloths (to protect your work area)
