GLT Headlining Hatch. Aimed at the Non UK people!!

Post by 340GLT » 22 Aug 2009 06:37 pm

I dont know if i'm 100% true in this but i believe all UK GLT's had black headlining but also factory fitted sunroofs?
If this is the case did any of the European spec GLT's get a black headlining without factory sunroof???
Want a black headlining for my 340R

Especcially because over here, 3dr GLT's are rare as hell. They are all stripped out for the volvo 360 cup. A 5dr GLT is the best to get (i believe Volvodspec has a 5dr headlining?) It fits a 3dr.

yes i have; direct fit and you can fit the rear handles too!

all you need for 5drs to 3drs conversion of the headlining are the 2 "bended" supports near the B-style from the original 3drs headlinging; you'll know what i mean if you see it; very simple to do.

Yes, you'll be looking at a pre early 88, most likely 87, as after this point they all came with sunroofs. Can't you use some sort of vinyl dye instead?

You can get some very good vinyl spray to do it. My brther did that with his mini and it lasted for a few years before it needed a recoat. Not bad considering the car was his daily.
