The carpet/felt kinda stuff on the roof of the interior on my VR is all loose and not stuck to the roof well at all. Does anyone know how much it is to fix up or get completely re done? Its not that bigger deal, but if it were fixed up well the inside would look a lot more tidy.

Thanks :)

You can fix it for $2 with 100 thumbtacs like mine, its all class :D Or for about $100 or so your local upholstery joint should be able to sort you out.

How about a tin of spray contact adhesive?

1. put a thin squirter head on the tin ( like the type that fit WD40 tins )

2. use a razor or scapel or smothing sharp...to put a small cut in the hoodlining

3. stick the tube in

4. spray around inside

5. apply thumbtacks till adhesive has set.

6. remove thumb tacks.

I havent done this method...cause I dont have a sagging roof but I bet its cheaper than getting someone else to restick it.
