i would say the foam helped thickin it up so it wouldnt sag. try finding a way to run to thin thin rods maybe in a ( x ) or from front to back maybe glue it in place. it might work i havent done my head liner yet. good luck

when the fabric in my dads old bonneville started to sag we tried glueing it back up and it didn't work at all, so i would suggest not to use glue lol.

The trick is to clean the headliner base itself very well first. Make sure you are using a good quality spray adhesive. 3M makes very expensive, but very good glue...don't skimp on glue here. Also, follow the directions very carefully on the can. Using too much will not only soak through the material, but will actually keep it from sticking.

Hope that helped :thumbup:
If I could just figure out how to meld the Outback and the Neon into one car...
