I just changes my in my 78. It wasn’t too hard to do. The trim clips ikon the front windshield and rear are a little tricky. I had mine wrapped in vinyl. But a lighter material would be best. Vinyl is a little heavy and without the dome light it sags a bit. Most fabric stores carry headliner and the adhesive for headliner.
You can try ClipsandFasteners inc. There are a very large number of different fasteners used on GM cars. Get as many measurements as possible on the fasteners that came out of your car (presumably broken). There are many that like alike online but are different in real life. Clips and Fasteners Inc is a good place to start.Were you able to find replacement clips anywhere?
are you sure cause ilve been looking high and low for a headliner for my caprice landau and i need it asap so whats yrs fit sirI dont think 4 door is the same. If the board is still good just go to upholstery shop and ask for material for headliners a few colors available. If board is bad our coupe roof is same as montecarlo and on Dixie restoration there are alot of parts available that also work on our cars. Need 2.5 yards and 2 cans of glue. Had to do mine last night
Could prolly do it with 2 yards but best to have extra than come up short. Good luck.
I have had (2) headliners replaced in my 1982 Caprice Classic. One in April 1997 ($178.00) and replaced again in April 2021 ($300) included both visors. A $122 increase in 24 years. Same company...did a awesome job! Believe me...doing it my self it would not look the same...lol. I have kept track on every nickel I have put in this vehicle. From 1982-present the total now reads $14248.51. Sounds like a lot..? When you figure it is a 40 year old automobile...it comes out to approximately $29 a month....sounds better looking at it from that stand point. When I put it away for the winter it had approx. 117,000 miles on it. My "Johnny Cash Car"...replacing it "one piece at a time". If you want to own old vehicles be prepared to invest $$$ in them. That goes along with anyone owning vintage cars. If your an auto mechanic or know how to repair things vs taking it in....I envy you. There's where the price of owning a classic car becomes much less expensive.are you sure cause ilve been looking high and low for a headliner for my caprice landau and i need it asap so whats yrs fit sir
In less your one great DIY man...I would take it to a auto shop that specializes in this. I took my '82 2dr Caprice for (2) headliner jobs in 1997 and 2021. 1997/$178 & 2021/$300..increase of $122 in 24 years. I would be willing that some of these DIY guys wish they hadn't attempted to DIY once finished.I have GOT to change the headliner in my 2dr 1979 Caprice. It's falling down and I can't take it anymore. Is it the same as the 4-doors or a different part? Where's the best place to get one? any tips on changing it would be great too.
