VY Commodore Headliner removal and replacement of fabric
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
It is not possible to re-glue the old headliner to the liner substrate. Replacement of the fabric is the only option. The fabric is easily available online.
Do not use standard contact glue as it may not stick well enough in the heat. I used two cans. There are plenty of other tutorials about it re-gluing the headliner, I was focusing on the removal of the headliner in this particular car.

Hello!!!
Great video, thank you so much! Very helpful in removing and replacing the headliner in my VY this weekend
Excellent video. Really helps with those tricky bits. Thanks
There are two sections for the VY commodore wagon. Also the glue shrinks, so for those doing this, apply the glue once, let it set for around 5 mins and spray another coat on top again. This will reduce the shrinkage and ideally use a paint-roller to stretch the fabric over the support panel. Good job never the less guys. ps: wear goggles or something to protect your eyes from the old glue. One grain of that stuff in your eye and it's like hell on earth!
I need to do my VZ soon, great video. I paid $550 for my Pathfinder and no way I am doing that again. Thanks for the tips and info.
Wonderfully done and the pipes during challenging moments was a superb idea! Thank you very much team!

Thanks. The reason is that the backing is foam and that foam is breaking down, basically disintegrating, there is no way glue will stick to it. You will find it easy to find replacement material online. Not sure if you are in NZ but I used www.webbing.co.nz/auto-marine/79-headlining.html Cost $50.

My qtn is why doe a this dog glue always fail? What's that brown crap once it starts to sag. I want it to stay secure and not sag again!

I believe it is the sponge backing that turns brown and sticky. You have to replace the material and clean all the gunk of the cardboard backing really well.
