Perhaps also consider having B-series trim installed. I saw it on a AU and it was painted black and quite nice.

You never know you may be able to fix it yourself once you pull it off the roof. May only need some glue on it. Worth a shot in my opinion. Cheers

I had mine done by a motor trimmer up here at Morayfield really good service and and a good job at that cost me $160 back in September he used the AU2 lining as he didn't have the Series 1 lining. it takes a day cause they have to replace the foam that is between the cardboard and the lining and it all needs glueing

Slightly off topic... I want a hoodlining with all the sunroof bits and peices. I have a roof with the sun roof mechanicals and the roof itself at work, but it didnt come with the liner. Ive got the grinder, sitting there, ready to go! Even more off topic, does anyone have the problem of sometimes losing where the curor is when your typing, and not knowing where you're up to? It just took me 20 mins to type this!!!

I'm surprised no one mentioned the old stapler trick, seen a few cars (not AU's) with the lining expertly stapled back up ;)

My mates ute had the liner falling down and because he was an apprentice (broke) we pulled the liner out. Pulled the material off and rubbed the foam off then painted it. He chose black but you could use any colour. It came up really good. Cost 10 bucks for the paint and about 1 hour to do.

take your old one down carefully, take a square measure of it, get some fabric, cut to shape using your origional liner as a template. get some glue in a pressure sprayer pack or on a spray gun and compressor, spray and replace. Easier to remove seats. Careful as the glue sets fast. Start at the front and work your way back if you catch me drift.
but, it is a hell of alot easier to get a auto trimmer to do it. and there's no risk of you f'ing it up
