Roof lining

[Jeff]

Does the front roof lining of a 130 fit a 110?

Are you talking single cabs, dual cabs, or wagons Jeff?

Sorry, I meant a 130 dual cab into a 110 wagon.

The 130 dual cab roof lining is in two pieces, with the join in line with the B pillars. I'm fairly certain you could use the front half in a wagon, but the rear section is too short and it curves downwards as low as the top of the rear window. It also would cover the alpine windows of the wagon.

Thanks James, I was offered by a 130 owner the front section, as he had two front sections and a DC rear section. He said make an offer, but I might go to the uphulsterer and get it recovered bit by bit, it would probably get longer life before it sags like the one I have now.

I think that would be a safer bet ;). I've just about finished putting a 130 dual cab back together and I'm not reusing the original lining either. It's a bit saggy and there's plenty of space to be had for overhead consoles by making your own for the front section.

I took my roof off and gave it to a upholsterer. Some 1" foam to make it level with the bracing and stretchable lining. It worked out they could put it on for me cheaper than I could buy the glue. keeps it quieter now as well as cooler.
Also 3mm alloy sheet with a 90deg bend screwed to the roof above the doors and to the sunviser brackets is a good hieght.

That's great Albert! That's pretty much exactly what I have done (but I left the roof on). I stuck on the foam, and then got the upholsterer to install the marine carpet.

I have a 130 and a few 110 headlinings out of my vehicles, they look the same.

I like the look of the marine carpet roof, i was going to change the color of mine in the 130, dont like the light grey roof.

Nice job on the hood lining. I really like the roof console. Did you fabricate that yourself or did you have it make up? :thumbsup:

[rainman]

I made it myself. Like everything, it took something like "forever", but more fun and more productive than watching television ;).

Awesome job, congratulations. Something like that I’ve always wanted to install on my vehicle. Time in the shed is a big issue. I don’t get enough of it.
