replacement headliner for a S80

[Mace]

I've been thinking about what to use as headliner material for my s80 roof. It is not a conventional top, so all pre-made tops won't fit at all with it.

I stumbled across this page on a rover top. headliner and sunroof

Which looks about perfect for my needs. Has anyone done a headliner similar to this one? Obviously the glue selection is of utmost importance. 3m 77 spray adhesive is what I was thinking. 1" closed cell foam should also help significantly with noise reduction and insulation (heat in the summer and cold in the winter).

Am I barking up the wrong tree? A flat plywood or particle board headliner won't work with the setup I have. It has to be able to curve exactly like the rover roof (without the windows in the top).

I like this. So where do you get that felt?

No clue, I did not do it. However, a quick google search ended up with
weir crafts - craft weight 100% wool felt, sheets, squares, or by yardage

I redid the Scout II many years ago. A piece of 60" x 8' shower board was used by cutting to the size, using the old head liner as a template. Then indoor/outdoor carpet was glued to the dark side of the shower board. It's still in service and still looks great.
