Headliner issue
My headliner recently started sagging. It's mostly on the front drivers side. I bought some headliner adhesive spray from autozone to fix it. Before I go through the trouble of pulling it out and fixing it would it hurt to just pull the enitre headliner and scrap it? Idk if that thin piece really insulatea much and I don't mind road noise but will everything mount back correctly without it?

I just did this but mine is a 95 and I was able to replace the dome light posts and the speaker mount with self tapping screws, not sure if your year is the same.
Theres a recent post asking the same thing and the picture that was posted of the dome light was very different than my year.
You will have to get used to a loud gong when you close your drivers door and I am anticipating a very loud ride when it rains. LOL

I went to a shop and had mine done with the factory material done in one day $123.85 tax included out the door looks like new, for and extra $25 they would have done both sun visors but mine were fine.
I had a Blazer for a while with no headliner and it was hot, noisy a real PITA never again.

That's cheap. It's really amazing how much a headliner can help with temp control in vehicles.

I've been an upholsterer for 30+ years. Have attempted to repair way to many headliners. Its not impossible, but you are way better off just pulling the old off, getting a clean mating surface, and gluing new material on.
