Default Headliner?

So you folks that got the headliner any problems? Does it stay in place or are there issues with the velcro coming off. Looks like a great upgrade but IMOP overpriced,still might have to get one.

I love the finished look of mine but I rarely have the top up so I never get to see it. It might weigh 2-4 lbs...

I have the headliner installed several months ago. It's still in placed and doing very good job in reducing the heat inside the car with the heatwave we had down here in So Cal the last few weeks. The car is also a little quieter at highway speed with the headliner (and with the top up).

The weight of the headliner is less than 1 gallon of gas. If you are concern about weight, fill your tank to half full.

where does one acquire this soft top headliner?

would it be worth it if my primary reason for getting one is to reduce highway wind noise?

Wind noise is more a function of a tight seal on the top front gasket. A easy check would be to pull down on the center softtop handle...if the windnoise decreases, you need to tighten up the latches either by replacing to hardtop strikers or using aquarium airline tubing on the hooks.
