Default 93 civic hatchback headliner replacement

So I bought a civic but it came without a headliner. Been trying to find one at the junk yard but no luck in my area. My question is can I put a coupe or 4 door headliner in my hatch.

I don't believe so, I believe the headliner is different for each model car.

Let us know what glue you find works best? I've heard of challenges in this area.

It's so hard and expensive to find these things now that I'd seriously consider talking to an upholstery shop to get one custom made.

Did my EK headliner 4 years ago and it's still in perfect condition. It was actually pretty easy and looks OE.

I used the backing/cardboard original to the car with OE-style headliner fabric from a vendor on eBay, which turned out to be a near perfect match to the OE EK headliner. For glue, I used 3M Headliner & Fabric Adhesive. Worked perfect. One 18oz can was more than enough.

Getting all the trim out front and rear to be able to pull the headliner was honestly the most finicky part. All in all, it's easily doable in a day/two giving time for glue drying and reassembly.

Ahh, I didn't see that your car came completely without the headliner. Definitely keep looking at junk yards. Not to say that couldn't make one yourself or have one made but it's a complex molded shape and would definitely take a lot of measurements and patients.
