Headliner Options
Just finished installing a new rollcage in my 74 911 and need to put a headliner back in for racing in a stock class. I would be interested to hear from anyone that has used other than stock headliner material as a suitable substitute.
Thanks,
Terry

well I havent done mine yet but I have been thinking along the same lines. I went down to a local fabric store and they have something called super suede. I think its alot like the alcantra material that alot of companies are using on newer cars. It looks and feels just like suede, but is substantialy cheaper. I have thought about getting quotes from shops for a custom headliner, but I would also kinda like to do it myself. Go to a fabric store and have a look around, you might also see if someone on here has a way to get a template for cutting it. Good luck,

Went to the fabric store today and found a couple of options. Several flavors of vinyl and some very lightweight carpet material. I'll probably make a template out of lightweight cardboard then glue everything in place with some 3M adhesive.

For the stock headliner, yes. I'm trying to get around putting a stock headliner back in. With the roll cage in place, access is somewhat limited. Just looking for options to the stock headliner and having to remove the front and rear glass.
