Headliner
 
OK folks, I have a 1991 Chevy 1500, single cab. How hard is it to change the headliner. If it is not hard, how do you get the darn thing out??? Thanks in advance!!! Your help is greatly needed. :thumbsup:

Not sure if that's a cloth covered one, or the painted hardboard. In either event, remove any dome light that mounts through the headliner. Ditto for windshield visors. Plastic and/or metal moulding pieces will surround the headliner-take these out and keep track of the fasteners used-the screws may be different length. With all of that done, you should be able to slip a broadknife under one edge and pop the liner out. Pull or scrape off the old cloth if it's cloth covered. New cloth can be installed with a spray adhesive like 3M #77 or #90. You can buy both at either big box stores or an industrial supply house such as W.W.Grainger. I've gone to fabric stores and bought t-shirt cotton fabric that is wide enough to cover a headliner, and installed it with the spray glue-it's easier than it sounds.

A pickup truck is pretty damn easy, since the headliner is so damn small. All you really need to do is unscrew anything attaching to the roof of your truck (visors, domelight, anysort of pockets) and then take the trim off around it. Shouldn't be too bad of a job.
