hi guys
who is the best supplier for front cab headlining
removed the cab lining today and now it seems mine is perforated but not all the way trough ,except one piece {think was repaired years ago. )vw cab PHOTO-2022-05-14-.jpg
 
I made mine years ago and it still looks good. I overordered and made a second from the excess fabric, sold straight away, good feedback.
A similar perforated vinyl is readily available off the roll, it's pliable and stretchy, so easy to fit tought. Surprisingly cheap and the width of a roll is over what you need for a t2 bay cab.
I know the original was heat seamed but stitching is just as good.
If you know someone with a sewing machine who can stitch straight, and big scissors. There are only a few straight lines of stitching to do and you already have the perfect template to measure and copy. I went slightly oversize on the outside edges then trimmed to suit during fitting.
 
thanks for that
have dropped it of at local trimmer so will keep you all posted
