Hey guys, I searched through the FAQ and all I found was how to remove an EG headliner but nothing about EK headliners. My headliner on the passenger front on the edge of the windshield is just now starting to fall. Is there a way to stop this from falling down even more before it gets worse? I really want to keep from having to remove the headliner because I have a DX with an aftermarket power sunroof. I did not install the sunroof the original owner had the dealership install it for him. And I'm afraid if I remove the sunroof to get the headliner down it will start to leak when I put it back in.

So any ideas on how to fix this before it starts to get any worse? Thanks.

Why would you have to remove the sunroof? You might have to provide pics because normally you don't have to touch the sunroof to remove a headliner.

You don't have to remove the sunroof. You have to remove most the plastics, visors, the rear view mirror.

Its %100 worth replacing it, and it looks good!

I picked up $20 of Fabric, took off the old fabric, sanded down the left over fabric, bought some Adhesive Spray, and start at one end and just work your way down spraying every inch.

Yeah. You're gong to have to figure out how to get that bezel off. More than likely it simply snaps into place but I'm just guessing since it is aftermarket.

Or you can mask off some stuff and a little adhesive to temporarily address the sagging.

If I were to go to my local Hobby Lobby and pick up some fabric to redo this. What adhesive spray would hold up the best?

3M headliner spray worked great for me: http://www.amazon.com/3M-82-06RV-Hea.../dp/B001Q3L6WQ

Thanks, I'll look into it but I'm sure you all can understand where I'm coming from. Aftermarket sun/moon roofs can be scary because they are known to leak really bad. But this one has been on the car since the day the original owner bought it. He had the dealership install the sunroof and install a OEM 6 disc changer in the trunk. And this sunroof has never leaked on me once and has always worked perfect. Whoever installed it did an amazing job and I'm just afraid to touch it in fear that it will start to leak...

It looks like it's just sagging in the back. Pop the back of the headliner down and spray adhesive where it's needed.

Yeah, it's just that one spot right on the ridge of the headliner. My guess is from years of direct sunlight..
