Headliner Poll
Monday, July 11, 2005 1:40 PM
while disabling my drls i noticed that, though my interior was charcoal that my headliner was tan. all my friends cars 2k+ have the same thing. but a few in the pre-2k range have charcoal headliners to match. So my poll is for people with charcoal interiors: do you have matching headliner and what year is your car. im curious to find out if GM just got cheap in their later years or what. thanks.

They did this to make the interior appear "bigger".

If they also saved a few bucks doing so, it would not surprise me. GM loves to install cheap crap and then charge you an arm and a leg if you are ever unfortunate enough to need to replace anything.

This unmatched interior is easily fixed with a spray fabric dye. I have not done it yetm but plan to this summer. A lot of guys in here have successfully done so.

My '02 Sunfire GT had the tan headliner, but I was fortunate enough to stumble across a '95-'99 Cavalier that had a sunroof with the graphite headliner in the junk yard one day. I simply grabbed everything I needed (if I remember correctly it was less than $40 for everything) and replaced that ugly tan-ness. It makes a huge difference to have an interior that actually matches . So, to answer your question it was definitely a '95-'99 thing, although not every '95-'99 had the graphite headliner.

if you plan to swap and you have a moonroof you are going to have to put the switch that was in the old tan one into the charcoal one, because the plugs are different.

my 00 sedan has a light grey headliner

and around 98 is when the graphite head liners started to get phased out

my friends 99 had the neutral headliner (thats what GM calls it)

My 95 SE had a charcoal interior and headliner... my 95 GT had tan interior and a tan headliner... Well the headliner is still tan and I swapped most of the tan interior out for charcoal... I'll get around to the rest eventually lol

don't bother worrying about ordering them from gm or anywhere like that. they're been discontinued. at least the one i have was. i used the part number just to see how much it would have cost from them and i was told there's no part to match the part number.

on a side note, i just got charcoal visors to match my headliner. only a month driving around with the neutral colored visors annoying the hell outta me. damn they stuck out like a sore thumb.

My best advice is to keep checking your local junk yards. I never expected to find one and when I least expected it, I found one .
