2001 Mercedes E430
E430 headliner sag

Hello all, I currently own a 2001 Mercedes e430 and i have noticed that my car’s headliner has been sagging. I was wondering if anyone has any advice as to what to do and if I need a total replacement what could the price look like.

Attached are some pictures i just took







Thanks

I found the OEM color match headliner online as most installers come "close". It is Orion Grey. With labor $500 around these parts. I bought new grills and sunroof handle as mine were practically brown. You may want to consider the sunroof shade guides (4) that slide along the tracks. Ask the shop to clean and lube the contact tracks.

2000 E430
Headliner sag

Hi. I just got a 2000 E430 with the same problem. I looked at a lot of W210s, either they had just had the headliner replaced, or they needed it replaced. All of them fail....I talked to Dean Lambach in NJ, who sells cars on Bring a Trailer, and he told me to budget 1000 for the job. I found a local shop that wanted 600, and I talked them down to 500. The job was great, and it took only one day. Dropped it off before work, picked it up on the way home. Easy peasy. Dont miss a great car over the headliner...
