I thought I would start a thread and a bit of a diary including some pictures.
So here's what I'm doing. I have removed the headliner from my parts truck (2001 discovery 2) and am planning on striping it anddreskining it with textured faux leather.
As most of you who have or have had a d2 the headliner sagging is very common. The original material is on a thin foam backing which deteriorates with time. Both my 2000 and my 2001 are in need of headliner repair.
When I removed the headliner both sunroof drain tubes were hanging down / disconnected. The headliner itself was fairly straight forward to remove. If you are going to attempt this job be prepared to need a lot of space, it's deceiving ho big a panel it is until it is out of the vehicle, it's about the size of a pool table. Next step is to strip it and scrape all the foam off.
Pictures and updates to follow.:buttrock:
