MKI head liners?



I bought mine from JCWhitney. Just the plain black cotton, or whatever the lightest fabric is. 

I bought it because my SCCA class rules said I needed one and the stock one was totally trashed, so I wasn't terribly worried about it being perfect or anything.  However, I've actually had a fair number of people comment on how it turned out really very nice! Unless you're looking for an exact replica of the OEM vinyl, I would actually highly recommend it. They do offer a vinyl one that might be a good match for OEM, but I can't speak to it.

Plan on having three people around for the install. One to manage the inside of the car (bows, basic alignment, etc) and one on each side to do final alignment, stretch, and glue it down. I took the inside job, and had to convince my body to re-define it's concept of "flexibility" in order to work around the full six-point roll cage. :-)

Also be wary of pulling it TOO tight, as a couple of the seams in mine don't look as pretty as others. In 3+ years, it hasn't shown any signs of ripping or anything, but it just makes the seam not look as nice and clean as it should.

Ok, any one have a link for new head liners for the MKI?
(provided of course that I can get the rear quarter rubbers?)
