About 6"from the rear map light towards the rear door you can insert a plastic trim tree once a small hole has been made in the head lining and that will then suport the head lining in the middle, either side i then used a couple of lenghts of valcro 2004 TD5 Defender 90 xs station wagon

Rear headlining in mine sagged, so I removed the interior light and let it air for a couple of days. Then I used a latex spray adhesive, then lay in the back with my feet pushing the headlining up for about five min's until it stuck.

Then replaced the light.

An OE new is more money than La Salle, and there's will never sag. My front section is tatty and there's none in the rear. Costed up replacement originals and they were far more than La Salle. 2016 D4 HSE

Thanks very much guys...will try to re-fix but if that doesn't do the trick will probably go for the la salle option

Cheers! Thumbs Up

I fitted La Salle in my DC Tomb Raider. Excellent fit and no more sagging - ever! I was concerned that it may increase noise from a drum effect, but did not. I did glue foam camping mats to the top side of it first though - to help insulate and reduce potential condensation. In short - would recommend. Thumbs Up Rich

I spoke to them last week and they didn't ahve any rear or full headlings for a 90, good call though, I think they have everything I don't want! Good things come to the wild and free

I had a laselle in one of my old 90's...
No real issues with it at all...
I'd stick with fixing original though...

Ive had my headlining out of my 300tdi for around a year now (due to rebuild) and im amazed at how much condensation collects on the inside of the roof. I assume this just drips down onto the back of the headlining causing it to eventually sag over time?
