Disco 2 Roof Lining

ChrisStokie · Aug 15, 2018

Can anyone recommend someone to supply and fit a replacement roof lining in my TD5 in the Staffs/Derbys area?
Both sun roof leaks have been repaired but the lining didn't survive the water ingress.

Thanks.

Not exactly the repair service you are after, but an alternative option I did myself, and a hell of a lot cheaper.

if your base material is not damaged only the fabric, than do it yourself. If you decide on sticking new fabric, use very good (industrial grade) adhesive, if not you can just paint.
I have just done mine 2nd time (see pictures) as the adhesive used first time was not strong (heat resistance is very important).

Where did you get the fabric from to do yours? All the universal headliner fabrics I could find online were slightly too small. Usually in width.

I have bought it from a local shop in Hungary specialized for different fabric materials (car, furniture and so on). The color what I have used was available in 1.8m width. Lenght up to you.

They look like they would do a nice job, but me being me, I'd have to take the £15 spray paint over that price

This is an excellent post! I wish I had the time and skills to do it.
