personally you can do it yourself for about $100, i used to work as a trimmer a few years ago and it is so basic we used to get work experience kids to do them,you can get cheap hoodlining material off of Mario from Australian trim supplies in Dandenong,if you need a step by step just let me know:twisted:
Mine was sagging around the sunroof indents. Used some self tappers with some grey plastic clip on covers for the screw heads. Just in the corners of the sunroof indents; doesn't look too bad....
Yes please - why not post it here?Quote:

For what it is worth I got a quote today from our motor trimmer. To replace the lining if I remove the cargo barrier and overhead console (factory one above windscreen) $240

ok if u r going to do it yourself pull your head board out ,remove the old cloth,get yourself a pair of gardening gloves or something similar and start rubbing until all the old foam is removed,thats the worst and most time consuming bit of it,then get yourself the hoodlining cloth,make sure its the right width,and for a single job maybe to tins of quikgrip or you might be able to buy a small amount of of a trim or if you know a few people who need to do it you can buy a 20lt drum from a trim supplier,apply a coat of glue to both the board and the foam side of the cloth,find the centre of the board and cloth(length not width)and work the cloth out to the edges (you will have to stretch it and work it into certain sections)make sure you apply a small amount of pressure to get it to stick(dont use your fingers as tou will end up with small indents through your board once thats done trim up round your edges and the refit to the car, its that easy,dont be that fussy about a slight color difference when buying the cloth as car companies just use whatever is cheap ,in victoria youcan get the cloth from ALLFAB ,VYBAB ,NOLANS ,but i use AUSTRALIAN TRIM SUPPLIES in Dandenong cos ive known the guy for a good part of 15 years and he is great to deal with,hope this helps u out and if there are any questions just ask
only have 1 question and thats how much beer do i have to buy for you to come round and give me a hand!!!!!!!
