Title: Best Place To Buy Headliner
Post by: EagleJoe93 on January 12, 2016, 10:47:24 PM
I am looking to replace my headliner soon. It is completely fallen down, is faded, and has accumulated tears in it. I already have a can of headliner glue, and I know what needs to come out, but I am looking to buy the headliner fabric. What would be the best place to buy it and what is the color code for the honey tan interior headliner fabric?

I've gone to JO ANN Fabric's for headliners. I've done some without the foam backing. They have turned out pretty good!

That is one of the places I found, but I wasn't sure which number code was my interior color. I just noticed the samples link and I think I know which one is mine.

Try Heads Up Industries or JC Whitney.

I ordered from this place, they had the nutmeg color I needed (the fabric is almost a perfect match to the original, looks much better than the sample block on their website)

Was the Nutmeg Headliner used in the limited wagons? I've got the honey tan leather interior and in my searching I have not found a headliner that specifically says "Honey". My headliner is seriously faded, so I have been having a hard time figuring out the correct color and color code I need.

I haven't paid any attention to the other colors, since I was just interested in the Nutmeg color.  If you don't have the Nutmeg interior (which is darker than the tan interior) you don't want the Nutmeg headliner.

They had Nutmeg until 1984. After that 85-88, they had HONEY and LIGHT TAN.
