    Hi, The leather headlining in my 456 GTA is starting to sag. I am sure I have seen some articles on here about fixing that problem, but I haven't been able to find them. Can anyone point me in the right direction please?
    Many thanks

    So was mine. I bit the bullit and removed the headlining. As with most jobs on the 456, this is not difficult but it is very time consuming. Start by taking the rear seats out and work your way up. Headliner is the last part to come out. After I had the lining out, I took the leather mostly off and glued it back in with a 2K contact glue. While at it, I also did the rear shelf and several other pieces where the leather had come loose. Nice winter job, and very rewarding.

    Thanks for your replies, but hey..... I just put the rear seats back in having more or less finished my nice winter project! I still have to complete a routine service but otherwise thought it was all good to go.

    Still hoping that someone will come back with a link but otherwise I'll muddle through and try to take some photo's on the way.
