Discovery Headlining

Aug 04, 2005 1 Replies

I have been grateful for the help I have received in the group from Steve Taylor, Tim Hobbs and several others so I hope that you will tolerate another question.



I have a small right angled tear in my '95 Discovery ES headlining above the rear seats.



The stretchy beige material looks to be very difficult to repair so I will have to get it replaced.



Should I use the main agent assuming that the staff have some experience of removing headlining when repairing leaking roof lights etc?



Do I seek a upholstery / headlining specialist in Norfolk who, although probably less expensive, will presumably be less familiar with Discos?



Any idea of the cost involved would be appreciated.



TIA.

Hi PJ Have a go yourself, it is not difficult. You should be able to change roof linings in about 3 hours. A bit quicker if you have an extra pair of hands to help. I did my 95 300tdi but that had twin manual sunroofs. I expect yours has electric sunroofs but should be ok. From memory I think I did it all with two screw drivers.

Hope this helps.
