Creating A Custom Headliner *Alcantara*

Recently we went to Dream Interior Design to get started on the Legacy's interior and tackle the largest piece first, the headliner. Having a wagon the headliner is a huge single piece and requires a ton of Alcantara. Watch as DID gets rid of the crappy stock headliner and creates a super car look a like ;)

Bro if you’re gonna upload a video on the headliner installation then you should include details. For example, what thickness foam you guys went with and what type. Also where we can buy the materials to do it ourselves. Most of your views are from guys that want to do the same thing to their cars.

[@Void-gn9zm]

For all the guys asking what kind of foam was used: I used 1/4 inch thick volara sculpting foam. It can easily be found using a Google search. This guy is probably the same type of person that keeps wheel specs to himself...

[@ir4kk]

Looks like 1/8in

[@jamesstephenson2346]

That's not the correct foam for a headliner. They sell headliner foam

Why doesn't everyone use open cell Melamine foam for sound attenuation? I've always wanted to come up some kind of sculpted head liner board design with an open cell back board to place 3M Thinsulate behind it for maximum interior sound absorbtion. I'm sure someone has done this.......I wonder how Bentley, Rolls, Maybach & other high dollar cars make their HiTech headliners?????

Do you plan to deaden the roof to add to the comfort factor?

i see you laid foam first (what type and thickness?) - how does this compare when using foam back Alcantara?

Old video but anybody know where to find Alcantara this wide? All the Alcantara rolls ove found are a few inches shy of what I need. Need small dimension to be at least 62 inches.

Be nice to know if that Alcantara is with or with out backing

Either. It's sold with backing, without, or foam backed. A 2 second google.would tell you.

[@PappyNet01]

Nice video and very clean shop: I am planning to have my headliner replaced, but I do not have all the proper tools and supplies; consequently, I am planning the job with a local shop here in northwest Florida. I am curious why is it so hard to find a midnight green and/or a dark shade of green headliner fabric for my 2005 GMC Sierra 1500 SLT VHO. Do you know where a I find a midnight green and/or a dark shade of green headliner fabric for my 2005 GMC Sierra 1500 SLT VHO? The headliner has been sagging and peeling away over the last couple of years then I had water leaking into my cab; I am planning to purchase gasket sheet material for the cabin air pressure vents; I already purchased a new 3rd brake light and gasket - please visit my playlist My GMC Sierra Humidity or Water Leak.
