I know this probably isnt a big deal but I fixed it twice so far but it keeps coming undone. My top lining I guess keep getting blown out in the back and hanging down, I looked online and I seen replacements but I not really looking to buy one unless I need to is there any way to get it perfect again everytime i do it it seems to have slack in it still not so sure what to do...

Here a picture of it it seems to keep coming down in the middle..


Also as it was loading I thought of something else.. My car is squelling when the clutch is out and when I engage it, it stops. I'm thinking that it's the Release barring.... Any thoughts?

My headliner has done just that also, but on the sides! It makes you wounder if those headliners shrink over time caused by the heat of the sun on the roof?
I think I'll just replace mine!

I am pretty sure mine well I know mine started with my GF having the windows down going on a road trip... on her passanger side door guessing one of the clips or whatever kinda gave loose and the air got in it and started to make it cme down around the side I fixed that but the back just keeps coming undone.... I wanted to keep my Cobra stock enough and I got some other problem I gotta fix before this head liner just wasnt sure if there was a good way of fixing it 100% since there no tears or rips in it

The glue has failed. Only way to fox it is to reglue it to headliner using spray adhesive.

When mine did this, I took the headliner out, removed the covering, purchased new fabric from a crafts store, some super 90 spray adhesive from home depot and reapplied a new headliner. Cost was $25

Oh and squealing with clutch out is a throwout bearing

JMO-the prob is with the foam that the liner is glued to, it degrades over time and if you don't replace it the liner will come down again.

you might try a solid type throwout bearing, not sure they make them for the stang, but have used them on some older spots cars.

my prob is that I have no clue how to remove the interior trim to get my liner edges back into place properly.

That's how it's done! we have the new ones here, but if your board is in good shape i'd do exactly what he said above. You've GOT to take the board out - no use in fighting gravity too!

Also we sell cut yardage of the exact factory foamback color matched cloth if you want to recover it in the right stuff. Hit me up if you need a price. Otherwise a place like Jo-Anns fabrics will be able to def come close.

ya when the throw out bearing goes out it will be totally random and you will not beable to go anywear. it went out in my 96 cobra after about 5-8k miles of squealing. did you lube the bearing with some grease when you put it in?
