temporary fix / workaround to sagging headliner

[roc-a-rhol]

hi all.
ive got a saggy headliner at the seemingly most common location; passenger rear c-pillar. its a non-oss.

iv had a few responses from members offering their services and unfortunately i just can't justify spending too much on a new headliner. the car is my daily and by no means a show pony.

cue my £5 workaround for saggy headliners: https://amzn.eu/d/8vkliAE

it's a screw in rivet with a pretty close match pop on button.

does it look great? not really
does it look better than seeping through fabric adhesive? yes
is it better than a saggy liner? absolutely.

for those wanting a quick fix whilst they await a more professional finish it'll do the trick

cheers,
drew

You can also stretch the fabric a little more and fold it down the back. This can be secured with small staples and a little stapler.

Good work, hopefully no wires under there to pierce

There are wires on the driver's side going to the light above the back seats and the tailgate. I don't recall any wires on the passenger side.

Note: in photo the smooth black cable is my reversing camera. The Audi cable is the one held by clips.
