It was mentioned, but not as bluntly as I put it. Trunk definately wont work to get it back in.

You want to remove the cloth and padding, get down to just the cardboard. Then spray both the suede and headliner with the glue, I think 3M super 90 is the best, and let it sit for about 5 minutes. Get a friend and lay the suede on the headliner slowly making sure not to get any wrinkles or bumps in it. Then press or roll the suede to the headliner to make sure the glue adheres.

yo, Beware..... nothing 3M makes will hold that hardliner together..... unless you want some 'chrysler' sag. What you need is a commercial adhesive called helmiprene. It's made by helmitin. This stuff will stick your head to your ass and never come off (use as directed). It turns into rubber when dry..... it's the stuff they use to bond your shoe rubber to the nubuck or suede.

"HELMIPRENE 8130-6 was developed to laminate vinyl materials to automobile roof tops."

The suede really is the right way.... it would be nearly imposible to flock it in there. Theres always the option of taking it out, flocking it, then putting back in... you would have to apply the flock to the cardboard bare to make it stick. And the adhesive is oil based and should be able to handle bending it back in.

Have any questions, ASK
