Does anyone know which Toyota models have a non-foam-backed headliner--and how to replace it?
I've got a 6-seat 2013 Hiace van from Asia which has an unusual headliner I've never seen before. Unlike the usual 2-3 ply foam-backed headliner glued onto a molded foam backing like most modern vehicles have, this one is basically the same kind of molded foam backing with a fuzzy flocking glued or sprayed directly onto it--no foam layer. (It is factory--I bought the vehicle new in Hong Kong.)
I heard somewhere that maybe the 2nd Gen 4Runner/Surf and 3rd Gen Hilux have the same type of headliner? Anyway, I'm asking because I want to modify the headliner to accept an overhead console, and I'm not sure how to remove what's there so I can glue in the normal type of headliner, or sand it down, or just glue over it, etc. I've only got one headliner and no practical way of getting another one if I screw it up...
Cheers,
