That's good value.

Scouse and I had ours done in Granville (Sydney) a few years back and they cost $110 each including the sunroof shade panel.

For that price I wouldn't do it myself.

Good Info - Thanks
mine needs doing soon - probably get it done in Adelaide
any info/photos/tips around the on removal and refitting ?

cheers

I did mine myself a couple of years ago. I had to as all the local motor trimmers up here on the Sunny Coast wouldn't either look at it or not even bother calling me back witha quote.:mad:

The biggest hassel was getting the "A" and "B' pillar covers off and on again without buggering the little clips - also where the seatbelts go into the roller on the "B" pillar was a bit of a hassel. Other than that getting the head liner in and out was not too bad - even by myself. ;)

When I did get it out I stripped the old fabric off and gently wire brushed the old foam rubber off so I had a consistant surface wih no loose rubbish on it. I then got some underbody rubberized spray paint and gave it a good 3 coats. You can pretty much pick your colour if you like black. I gave it a top coat to seal it just to get rid of the rubber smell.

No more sagging headliner and very hard wearing - stops the kids from putting their fingers all over it too. I've even had a bit of mud that splashed up through an open window just wipe off. No dramas. Getting it back in wasn't too bad except for the aforementioned pillar covers.:BigThumb:

The black took a little getting used to but it really cuts down the glare inside the car. Especially on the beach.

See for that sort of money why give it to the yanks and have to do it yourself:)
It always pays to check local businesses before sending money O.S

Had my rrc headlining done abt 2 years ago.


Stripped it out & cleaned it all up. He picked it up. ,recovered it & returned it the next day. Did a good job & looked like new. D2 is starting to sag & will use him again when the time comes.
Cost then was $88.00 picked up & delivered but he is only abt a klm away.

I chose to do it in black . It looks really good with the cream plastic trims.
Also the black in front of your vision (in front of the visors) when driving is a great improvement over the usual light colour.

That sounds good. Would you mind posting up a Pic of that?

Mine's getting done now in standard colour but in ten years I might go black!
