    Good video. '98 and on XJs had the harder fiberglass & resin headliner boards. Those you can scrub hard or use a wire brush to clean them. My '96 XJ was like yours. It has a pressed fiberglass mat board that had a harder shell that goes against the roof and a raw fiberglass layer that faces the interior. The liner is glued directly to the raw insulating fiberglass. You have to be careful and just use a soft scrub brush like you did. The original fabric was just like what you ordered - a cloth faced foam. The old deteriorated foam layer is what you are actually scrubbing off.
    Another way you can tell which type it has is whether it has a speaker bar or not. They made the headline board out of the harder material so they could mount the speakers directly into the headliner board and eliminate the separate speaker bar. Easier manufacturing and assembly, which saved money.

    Tip of advice!! DO NOT soak it with the adhesive because if it’s too wet it will not stick!! Light coats and wait a minute so it gets sticky!!

    A DA sander works great for getting the old headliner off and the backing cleaned up. Did probably 500 headlight ers at an upholstery shop. Also, lacquer thinner works great to degrease it before you spray the adhesive down. The better you prep the panel the longer it will last. 3M and DAP make great spray glues for this kind of thing.

    It would've been nice to actually see you pull the head liner out and re-install it.

    I've had to re-fabric my 1996 XJ headliner a few times and in my 87 Comanche. It's a simple job after you do it a couple times LOL!

      That liner will be sagging in a few days. I have done a few and the canned glue is no good. I used to try to do it myself to save money. The best thing to do the remove and install but have a pro do the fabric and glue.

    Hey what is that rectangle section for at the back in the boot (1:52) - you also have the cables on the side hanging down? My jeep is the exact same - I have a small square light that goes there but why the huge rectangle cut out?

    @michaelpearce8661 8 років тому +5

    An extra hint would be to take a hard hand roller and use pressure to bond the of the fabric to the molded headliner. It takes a little more time but the bond is better.

    I actually kinda prefer the look of it without any of the liner.
    and it makes it a bit more modular too!

    that thing that you refer to in your video, is the power lock photo cell for the key FOB.

    The thing in between the visors is for a key fob to unlock the jeep from outside without using the key.

  • @dtshifter
    @dtshifter 6 років тому +1

    If you don't mind my asking. Did the glue continue to hold or did the new material fall from the old foam eventually? I ask not to be a wise guy but I had issues with the headliner continuing to fall in my wife's Saturn. it seemed like the spray adhesive would start to fail on hot summer days.

    • @phatbuddha1
      @phatbuddha1 6 років тому

      its best to use 3m headliner spray glue. Spray the panel and liner then wait before applying. You don't want it wet, you want both sides to be tacky. With light pressure, place the liner to the panel. I used a soft desk brush to lay the liner on. Don't press too hard or you will create indentions. I did my '95 Grand Cherokee 4 years ago and it still looks new. Got the glue at O'reillys
