headliners are not that hard to do....I did mine in the mustang coupe and it wasn't hard. I got about 3 yards of fabric (approx.) to do mine from a fabric store in Columbus, GA (just because I happened to be there..lol) then got some of the SUPER Adhesive and went from there....surprisingly turned out pretty well and looked just like stock. Price wise it was alot cheaper to do myself then to have a new one. You may just want to check around at local fabric stores and see if they have the headliner material, the stuff I got had the foam backing already on it so all I had to do was cut it and glue it on. Get some rough size estimates before you call so they can find something that is wide enough.

I recommend you do the headliner yourself. It is very easy to do and you can find help instructions on-line. The carpet you can get in Anniston, AL. i cannot remmember the name of the place, but I have been there and purchased from them. It is already molded and cut for your vehicle model. you just simply lay it in. Don't worrie about glueing it down. carpet is not glued even from the factory. Good luck!
