Subject: Re: 1984 headliner question by CentralCoaster on 2010/7/9 3:59:08 Yeah, I still had the foam piece to use. It provides some insulation so the sun won't cook you as bad on a hot day. With the stock foam, I peeled what was left of the stock fabric and matched it as close as I could at the fabric store. I gently brushed any loose stuff off the stock foam, used super duper 3M spray on adhesive, and then cut the edges with some extra, and tucked that in under the metal frame using an old credit card. I'd bet there's some 1/4 to 1/2" thick foam type stuff at the fabric store that you could bond black fabric over. Or get creative and use a different color that matches the interior... it's not like it will fade. There's also carpet padding, it would maintain it's thickness well, but it's heavier and may be harder to keep glued in... it works better as noise insulation than temperature insulation, so take your pick. |
