- In this video I will show you how to replace old saggy headliner in a Jeep Cherokee XJ. Today I will be installing on a 2 door 2000 Jeep Cherokee XJ. I will be showing the whole process from start to finish. This process is similar to nearly all vehicles that have a cloth headliner. If you have any other questions that the video doesn't cover make sure to comment below and I would be happy to answer.

New knife blades work best for cutting this material! Thanks all for letting me know...
Best headliner video for the Cherokee on UA-cam ! Thanks
Thank you so much. Your video is "spot-on Correct". I followed your steps and it came out flawless with a pro-done look. I even took your tip and got my fabric from Joann's. Again, with full due respect, thank you so much for guiding us all thru what seemed to be a daunting project. Breaking it down by following your steps make it easy and a no-brainer. Thanks again. KUDOS!
Best Jeep headliner replacement video out there. Thanks for this. The dull razor got to me, maybe use scissors after the initial center hole. That is again
I did this on my 88 Comanchee, had to get a refresher now that I will try on my 96 Cherokee...I love Jeeps. Great video man.
Did my headliner today. Thanks for the video, made this go so much faster. Your videos are fantastic. I appreciate how you go at a pace that allows us to Krupp up with what you're doing. You really know your stuff! Love the channel, Krupp the XJ videos coming.
I did a headliner today in my ZJ. Your video here was instrumental in making it a total success. A little different but mostly the same. Thank you! The best headliner video I have seen.
This helped me a lot with what to use and getting the head liner out of my 2000 XJ Sport. Awesome job! This will be my first time doing the head liner in any vehicle.
Incroyable depuis le temps du premier cherokee au dernier de 2001, jeep n'a jamais réglé ce problème de headliner... Merci pour la vidéo 👍
Great video… gonna help my daughter repair her sagging headliner on her new-old 1992 Cherokee Laredo. This took the intimidation factor down to zero. Thanks buddy!
Thank you!!! I've been wanting to replace the headliner in my Jeep forever! I think I will go green :)
Just inherited my Dads 96 grand cherokee that need a bit of work. Came across your channel and so far you've helped a ton! keep the vids coming -) thanks!
Iv'e done two headliners a while back, you made an excellent video. I liked the way you did it "landscape mode" makes for a much better outcome. Thanks for making the video.
Love this video!! I will be going fabric shopping later today for my Mini Cooper S R53 and starting a new project this weekend haha! Thank you again for making this look simple enough for me to try!

I've watched several headliner videos for my Jeep, and you are by far the best. Thanks for helping a newbie out. Seriously, great instructions and video clips.
Best video I'vee seen for headliner replacement.
Thank you very much for saving me a lot of headaches figuring things out myself. I didn't like the way the material was sticking with one side sprayed, so I did 2 side spray on everything. Also, to those like myself that cringed with the dull knife, you will find that this material is hard to cut. I used a new blade and still had to saw with it. I ended up using a small pair of sharp scissors for a lot of it, and I used a pointed blade from a carving kit for poking holes.
I spent so much of my childhood being terrified of the car stuff (no one in my family does this stuff). It's so satisfying watching you do this - you clearly know what you're doing, and you're great at it - but it gives me hope that I can do it as well. It's interesting to see that it's not so much a challenging task, but instead, a time consuming one. Changed the Valve cover gasket with a friend today... I did more of the watching rather than working (paid for the beer & pizza!), but this^^ I think I can do on my own time. Cheers man!!
P.s. I'm blown away by all the Cherokees near ya. They're next to impossible to find in my local hole. That being said, I know someone who is selling a '91 lifted Cherokee if you know an interested buyer! San Diego, CA.
Great video. Doesn’t look difficult, just very detailed. Very helpful.
THANK YOU MAN... THIS IS MY NEXT PROJECT FOR SURE..
Omg thank you for this i am going to do this to my jeep in spring. So helpful thank you
Nice job.That material laid down well.
Wow!
I just got my first jeep Cherokee this morning. Its a 2001 and has a saggy headliner......
This is awesome, thanks for sharing
Thank you so much for this....it is my next project on my 1998 2dr...I will probably just paint mine but it really helps to see just how to remove the headliner....
Thanks for this video! Was able to do the headliner in my 04 explorer for $50 and it came out great!
Getting ready to put some red buffalo plaid on my headliner. My current headliner is falling everywhere lol. I bought these miniature screw pins to hold it up for now. Can’t wait for the weather to warm up more here so I can get this done. Thank you for the very informative video!
Great video. Thank you very much! You made this easy by providing a substitute material for the headliner that can be sourced locally from fabric store and name brand adhesive that can be sourced locally from auto supply store. Nothing fancy or overly technical used in video.
Great video, I actually pulled mine and they were salvageable so I repainted with carpet dye. For the same amount of effort, I could have done this! I saw a video by ICON who does top level restorations for big bucks; he mentioned using marine-grade fabric, as it is way more durable, UV resistant, cheaper, and can be cleaned by wiping down.
Nice job, looks real clean!
Great video! Thank you for making the time to film the process, edit the footage and then sharing it with the rest of us! I replaced the headliner in my new to me 2000 Cherokee Sport over the weekend. Huge improvement! The detail you provided with Torx bit sizes was great and saved me having to make an extra trip to buy a T47 bit!
Glad it was helpful!
thanks for the thorough walk through.
New headliner looks great bro
Wow very cool video thank you so much, my 1998 Sport Jeep needs this 😊you explain everything very nicely!👍🍊County Ca,
So 😎 cool my ranger needs it and the Corolla xj still looks good. Thanks 🙏!!!
Great video. I’m learning
Great video you showed trim removal, thanks
Wow. ALTRA cool video. This has saved many, many wasted hours and $. Excellent stuff. Thanks SO much.
Outstanding job, thanks
Thanks this was very informative
Great video! Thank you
heya OutJeeper, great vid -- thanks for posting it! One little trick to make your life easier: before installing the headliner, use a fine-point Sharpie to mark some of the hole locations (esp. the speaker screw holes) with a tiny dot from behind; it'll seep through the fabric and make locating the holes a no-brainer. The speaker grille will hide any evidence of the marks.
On the big round holes, btw, I made 6 cuts; the fabric wraps just a little easier and tighter. Oh, and I did use a nice, sharp razor blade to do 'em ;^)/
Looks really good!
Great video. I have a 1999 Cherokee Sport that's ready for a new headliner. Thanks.
Thank you for the answer as to how much will be needed! I am planning on 6 yards as my car happens to be decked (96 buick park ave) it has a lot of things to cover and I am going custom as well so I kinda want to place designs so to speak.
You have great videos 👍🙂
actually gonna do this next week, already bought my material
Thank you for the help.
Excellent video 👍👍 I'm gonna take mine out this spring and just paint it lol skip the glue and fabric
well done!
Thats cool, I'm going to do that to my jeep
Good video, thanks
Thanks for a well descripted video.
Good job. I like it.
Great video but watching that dull razor blade part was like nails in a chalkboard.
Jay S Just the way she goes...
I didn't even remember this comment but I see I got 42 people that agreed lol
Good video Austin
I'm still having trouble comprehending how great that turned out.
Magic has it's ways
Looks good! I found personally it was just was just easier to paint it was a foam roller and some latex house paint.
Hi, I'm watching this in May of 2023 n I mean st say, you did a beautiful job !!!
Thank you!
Best video ever
Good video thanks
Good job on a inexpensive DIY headliner makeover. 👍 However, I personally would have used some batting material (thin) to give it a little moor plush look and may help reduce noise. Gluing in between layers.
Pretty sweet
Nice Job
very good video! only thing I didnt like was the material choice,but hey,each to their own!
Nice!!
Очень красиво! Молодец!
Great job! and not one curse word :)
Another well appreciated video. Thank you! Small note: My 99 Cherokee 2 door seat belt screws has T50 torx screws. Your video mentions T47.
You are correct, it is a T50. I only had a T47 on hand at the time.
I hope this ideal works with my t tops head liner
Awesome video man. How is it following up? Is it still holding strong?
Gracias me quedo como el pico
Hubby thanks you..we thank you..going to put a 🇺🇸 in our jeep ..
Does the spray glue soak or discolor the fabric ? Just curious because I know the foam backing fabric doesn't have issues with that and I am debating what to use
OMG that knife blade! DUDE! What's a blade, like 10 cents? Lol! Nice work though. I'm not afraid to rip into mine after watching this. Thanks!
Great work OutJeeping! I need to replace the headliner on my Jeep Grand Cherokee, and this gave me some good encouragement. I did have two questions:
1. Approximately how long did the entire process take?
2. Did you notice any difference in sound dampening using the fabric alone vs. the original fabric with foam backing?
It took around 3-4 hours and that's including it sitting for an hour to dry a bit. Personally I didn't notice any difference in sound from choosing a different material.
Gonna try to do this on my sons jeep. Only exception being that I'm thinking of installing some noise insulation because I'm getting him a Bluetooth stereo installed and I'd like him to be able to hear me when I call him.
I’m doing this to my Jeep now
What did you use for insulation ?
Awesome video. Thank you. I finished redoing the headliner and visor for our 1990 jeep. My boyfriend wants me to his jeep now. Do you have a viedo for a yj jeep wrangler headliner install?
I do not, just the Cherokee. But this is a similar process for majority of vehicles.
Hey sir, what holds the rear speaker bar up?
Great video! Would you say the material was like flannel sheet type material or fleece (maybe twice as thick as flannel)?
Material was fleece with a plaid design
❤️ your channel! Going to start mine today. Any updates on information or material used?
Thank you!
Everything seems to be holding up great so far, even in my other jeep after 4 years.
Great video, thank you! Is there any room behind the fibreglass board to fit a layer of insulation foam? (For sound and heat)
Yeah you could probable fit up to 1/4" of foam or whatever.
Apply the insulation directly to the sheet metal roof, and if you want to be as efficient as possible, paint your roof white.
I took my headliner off, before installing the fabric I would like to harden it, becuase it's a little frail on the front side. I heard of people using fiber glass resin to do it. Can anyone shine any light on this?
Yours came it out great! Thanks for the video
I'm sure fiberglass resin would work just fine since it is a fiberglass board.
Excellent video! Would you say there's a difference in cabin noise now since the new headliner isn't foam?
I heard no difference
Nice video Tx. Btw, always cut away from your hands...and uses scissors for that material.
I'm looking to redo my 92 xj headliner - I did it previously years ago in plain headliner material but now I'd like to do a design - would it be easier to redo the whole thing or add the new, thinner material on top of the foam headliner material? It's only slightly saggy in a few spots (and I could reglue it). Thoughts?
If it were me i would start fresh and take off the old material
I need to source a new fiberglass headboard, mine wasn’t optioned with speakers or dome lights and I want to install them
I have been watching this video for a long time and I'm finally ready to try it myself! I just need a refresher on what dimensions I need for the fabric... I see this is 3 yards long but how wide is that? I just want to order some fabric and supplies from Amazon and not have to shop around.
A square yard just comes in a yard width as well. So 3 square yards should be enough to get the headliner and visors done if you wanted.
I’m jealous, I don’t have anything on my roof, no old headliner no nothing, just bare metal with about 300 stickers on it lol
How has this headliner held up? Just curious. Looks awesome and I want to do something similar
I'm not sure on this exact Jeep because my friend sold it, but I have done a similar headliner in my Jeep about 4 years ago and it still holding up just fine.
Hi OUTJEEPIN' what kind of fabric is the one you are using on the headliner?
Thanks for the video
I used fleece from Joanne Fabrics.
Very handy vid man, how long did you put into it, start to finish? I have this same project ahead, think im gonna try mine with cow hide... but not sure as its not flexible like material fabric.
It took roughly 6 hours, but that includes letting it dry for an hour or so with the new material and glue on. Definitely using a stretchy material is best for reducing the amount of wrinkles in the finished product.
would it be possible to do this with a thicker material?? for example a Pendleton wool blanket
You could, for example I've used a thicker fleece on another Jeep and I've noticed I should have use even more glue because the corners like to sag with the heavier wait. It can be done but you may have more difficulty with it not being able to stretch as much and you'll have to use alot of glue.
Awesome!! Thanks for sharing! Can a factory roof rack be installed on an XJ that didn't come with a roof rack from the factory? Thanks.
I believe so but you will have to drill some holes in the roof to bolt it on.
@@OutJeeping Thanks!!!
How wide was the fabric itself? I’ve heard a bunch of different widths for it so I was wondering what you used.
Usually when I get fabric, I go by the yard, and the width of the yard is plenty wide for the XJ headliner. I have a feeling its wider than an actual 3', I would have to go back and take a measurement.
Know a good place to get the entire headliner board? Mine is missing, but would really like to have it and the roof console back in.
I don't know if anyone manufactures them new. Best bet is to find it from another jeep, either from a junkyard or someone parting out a jeep
when will you post the video how to replace the visor material
Dillon Richey It will be uploaded early next week.
How long do you suspect that the fabric and glue will hold up compared to having it done professionally? Great video!
J C There's really nothing different a professional would do expect maybe use normal headliner material. So it should last the same.
OutJeeping okay sounds great just actually got my very first XJ last weekend and looking to start upgrading everything and the head liner needs replaced glad I found your video.
I was considering just pulling out the whole fiberglass piece, leaving the ceiling bare rather than replacing the actual headliner. Is this a bad idea?
It will definitely be noisier inside
I think I definitely would have taken the opportunity to put in some sound deadening while the headliner was out. Looks good though. Nice job. :)
What would u use for sound deadening material?
@@ceemartin8427 you can find FREE poly batting made from spun plastic in discarded sofas next to dumpsters at thrift stores after hours or apartment complexes and it's both sound and insulating.
But many people buy expensive and heavy rubber sound patches I think are overkill and don't insulate but if you aren't living in your vehicle, insulation isn't as important.
Jim M over time most cherokees run into that wonderful AC problem, and wheeling with AC on sometimes overheats the motor. So I’d say it might be smart to have some kind of insulation in there. My Cherokee is bare metal, no headliner no nothing. There are days when it feels like an oven in there.
Just did my 2001 Cherokee headliner the same way. Used the same 3M Super 77 adhesive. That same day I had some trouble with the glue failing when the roof got hot in the sun. Later found out 3M makes a spray adhesive specifically for headliners. It has a temp rating of 170 degrees, but the Super 77 only has a temp rating of 110 degrees. So, I was wondering how your headliner is holding up. I'm parking my Jeep out of the sun for a few days to see if the glue sets up better. But I'm skeptical that it will withstand the heat of my black Jeep sitting out in the sun. What's been your experience so far?
I've never had it fall down before maybe in a couple little spots it started to unstick because there wasn't enough glue. But I usually had the windows down for a couple days just to get the fumes out and help it dry and I never had an issue. If I did hear of that other adhesive but it's not as good as the 77 as other people were saying.
@@OutJeeping Okay, thanks. Mine fell down so I decided to go with some DAP Weldwood Contact Adhesive Top and Trim. Pros use it for heat resistance. Hopefully it will do the trick.
