Thread: Roof lining

I've just had marine carpet (or similar) fitted directly to the roof of my 110. The original linig was sagged, and had a large hole cut in it by the previous owner for a spotlight handle. I want to fit a centre roof console, so figured the easiest option was to do away with the original lining altogether. This gives me a bit more height, and I can easily see the pillars for mounting.

I got the vehicle back on Friday, and I was quite impressed with the finish. I only replaced the section above the driver/front passenger, but after seeing how good I reckon it looks, I'm considering doing the whole roof.

All up, the young guy who did it charged me $100, which I think was very reasonable. The only slight issue I have is the carpet is a bit furrier than I hoped, but all in all, no complaints. I'll take a photo tomorrow for you.

Thanks mate for the input, I just wonder which kind of glue they are using.
I like the Silka products but I do not know if it will be ok when the roof is hot.
Perhaps the best idea is to send a email to silka and ask them if any of their products are suitable.

Is there any member who knows which kind of underlayer/support have the interior lining on the Defenders roof?

I like to know if I can bond marine carpet on it or not.

Cheers

As promised, here are the photos of my roof lining.
