dont really want to go to that trouble b, but it would look nice.
I was looking on German ebay last night and there was one in the black, like the roof lining you get in a sport and it was going for silly money

only permanent fix is take it out and either try (glueing back in place although it will be the foam that has dosed and believe me i have tried glueing it back, it will only fall down again)or see if you can find one in a breakers that has not dropped

Faux suede.

Have to excuse the unpainted brackets and boot trim, and mis matched rear seats.
