Good Afternoon all,

    I was wondering if anyone can tell me which site has good headliners? I know there are a ton of them out there, but remember I am new to this and need something that is good value, yet easy enough for a third grader to instal if there is such a thing LOL. Hope to meet some of you tommorrow.

Thanks,
Larry

I can't really say who is good or bad.  But I strongly recommend that you get the video installation manual.  RCV basically rebuilt a Bug to raffle off a few years ago and one of the club members at the time had a video on interior installation that was worth every penny spent.  It is not an easy install, but it isn't hard either.  I rate it a 7 only because it is tedious.  Wrinkles will have you pulling your hair out.

TMI is a mfg I used to do a super beetle. J-Bugs sell there products and also sell a $20.00 vidio that shows the complete install of a bug interior. For my first resto it looked half decent. Glad I was able to practice on a super [LOL].

  • Time to make the doughnuts....
well as for a headliner that someone with only a third grade education could put in, i here the Rebel flag is a nice choice.  

those guys seem to do it all the time.
The worst performance mod is whatever you're limited to because you convinced yourself (or others) that anything bigger or faster was too extreme for a street car.

For years I've had a plan to do a custom one- by pulling out the old one (carefully) preferrably in one piece- making a pattern of it, and using something else, like a large piece of black tarpaulin... ?
