Hi all - Been searching on this forum for a while now and I don't see any DIY directions for the R&R of the Headliner board in an F-type. Would appreciate any direction or insights into removing it! My leather headliner has failed big time and I need to remove the entire headliner board for a new headliner (which I'm not going back with the leather...it will fail again in the hot state of TX!)

 

Mine is also failing in patches, it seems like the yellow sponge material is disintegrating. Just used some spray adhesive to fix the hanging part by the door seal, too embarrassing to live with..

i haven’t looked into removing it yet, but iirc you have to remove the quarter windows for it to come out in one piece. And then some usual anchor point like the Sun visors, reading light area, roof support pillar behind the seat and alone the door seal.

 

UPDATE! Well I got motivated because it didn't get over 100 here in Dallas today and decided to start the removal process out in the driveway. 4 hours later and it's out (with the help of my son). Now I know why the dealer wants like $4k to do this job! It's a Whippin! I'm taking the entire headliner to a professional to see if they want to re-glue the leather or just swap it out for Alcantara or similar material that's not near as heavy as the leather. I've got a black interior with the red seat belts and red stitching....thinking maybe a nice matching red for the headliner might jazz it up inside?

 

Any tips or tricks you would share now that you've given through it? Also let us know how the re-upholstering goes!
