Here's the deal. I took out my old headliner and found that the moisture that caused the fabric to sag also made the foam board crumble along the edges. I ordered a headliner repair kit from Jax Seat Covers, but it doesn't include a board to glue the fabric to. Anybody know if anyone sells the foam board piece (or one for sale used)? Or am I going to have to go to the junkyard.

Hi Sean
Unless you damaged your old board it can be reused. Heat is what gets to the foam and makes it crumble. Very common. The new fabric should come with the foam back. Simply scrap off the old foam from your old board and glue on new fabric. If your board got wet that is a different story. Any GM "G" two door car has the same board. Monte, Cutlass, Regal and GP.

Good luck
Phil
