So I finally bought a 2g eclipse and the previous owner took off the old headliner and never replaced it so I'm wondering any good companies that make headliners for the 2g eclipse still? If they ship to Europe that would be even better thanks
 
Nobody makes an aftermarket headliner for the DSM. It's one of the least-replaced parts on the entire car.
Well it looks like this, what do you recommend I do?

YouTube how to reupholster headliner. It’s not hard and use the correct adhesive
If you have peeling fabric with age deteriorated foam padding that is raining snow on your head every time you touch it - you can remove and re-fabric the headliner. The most rare part you need is a headliner foundation that is not ruined by water or bends. The backing needs to be intact in order to strip and cover.

Been through it twice. It’s a good feeling once it’s done.

So you still have the headliner but it's missing the fabric and the foam padding is trashed.

Pull the backing down, brush all the old foam off, new foam, new fabric. Done!

^exactly! A hard bristle brush makes quick work of the old tired foam. I didn’t re-foam and it’s been fine, but don’t do as I do 😂

If you still have the underlying material, I recommend going to Hobby lobby and buying the fabric. If you're handy with a utility knife, the headliner can be replaced in about an hour.

I doubt the Czech Republic has any Hobby Lobbys but I'm sure there are fabric stores or maybe a banner from a local brewery would be styling. :)
 
If tour headliner hard part it good. I suggest taking it out. And using whatever material u want. I use the 3m spray, then lie down the material. Put little holes for the visors and screws ull need to reattach. It's easy bro
