HELP! The sky is falling! ....errr well....my headliner....anyone know how much new ones cost? passenger side is falling down 
and getting larger by the day with the heat and my almost obsessive need to drive with the windows somewhat down. SO, my questions are, how much and where? and any suggestions?

Headliners are cheap, like 50-100 bucks tops depending on if you have t-tops or not.. At least that's what they would run 8 years ago when I last had one replaced.. Even seen them for as little as 30 bucks for some cars..
They are real easy to do, you take off the trim pieces around the headliners, pop it out.. Rip off the old stuff and use a brush to scrape off the old foam.. Use 3M adhesive on the cardboard, and on the new material.. Merge together, fold over and cut..

I paid $122 from the dealer..

ooooo dealership rape 
My dad has a 1990 XJS V-12 Jaguar, he had to replace part of the brake lines or was it power steering stuff? anyway, all he had to replace was about a 6" hard line with 2 minor bends in it, with flanges at each end with screw on couplers, they wanted $37 at the Jag dealership, we went and bought it for $1.23 at the local hardware shop and bent it our selves. 
i guess i'll stear clear of the dealerships then. Thanks again for he info!
