The left front side of my headliner on my sunroof is sagging.

any fixes without re-doing the entire headliner?

i was thinking a blow dryer to get the glue hott and hold it up for awhile, but im afraid to burn the cloth.

you can get the sunroof liner out with out bringing down the headliner. You will have to get the sunroof top off. First you tilt sunroof up, 2nd torx on left and right must come off from inside, 3rd from outside you look under sunroof panel and you will see 3 screws on top left, middle and right all must come off. now you can lift sunroof panel off and get to the 6-8 torx that hold sunroof liner in place. :)

i replaced my SR fabric without removing the shuttle or headliner. it's doable by taking the trim 'round the SR. for the gluing procedure, i used the procedure by member 'old skool'. suede fabric was bought at JoAnn's fabrics.

The fabric on mine went to hell and jammed the sunroof. I pulled the liner off and was wanting to paint the black plastic the same color as the interior after cleaning all the adhesive off.

Thanks STAGGERED for the info on how to pull it out.

BTW, that looks nice fly.

I did mine, and removing the metal panel to get to the shuttle is not as hard as you would think. The torx are not hard to get to, just use 1/4 drive with an extension. The 3/8 drive is too big.
I think it is easier to remove and recover as opposed to doing it in place.
