People had lots of questions in your other thread that I didn’t see answered. Would probably benefit you to put all of this info in your original post so you don’t get asked the same questions repeatedly.

What fabric (make and model#) are they being covered in?

Is there an option to get the headliner in carbon finish instead of fabric

Weight?

Fitment pictures?

What’s the difference between US slicktop, Euro, and CSL headliners? Is the CSL one basically the Euro?

My sunroof cassette just sh!t the bed so I’m going to start collecting CSL roof swap parts, interested in as OE as possible.

Hey this is cool to see, definitely needed! Couple questions:

• Price?
• Whats it made of? Looks like fiberglass?
• Can it be ordered without a covering?

Glad I could provide the donor for this!

My Euro headliner doesn't have that square hole in the middle and I'm fairly confident its smooth behind the dome/map light too.

Also no bump in the middle where the rollover structure of the roof is for a total of 3 differences. Due to the lack of a bump you will need different plastic inserts for your rear coat hangers as they will sit at a different angle than before. The hanger piece itself is the same just the insert it screws into is different if I recall correctly. Also that's a great time to do away with the oh shit handles and put the deletes in.

As for the back center square hole, pretty sure those are perforated from the factory on headliner. So if you have the alarm (sonic sensor) they punch it out. Euro versions without it being “pre-wired” prob have it intact but it’s still perforated for easy removal.
Not sure about the front dome light area but likely also precut/perforated for pre-wired accessories like “mic” for speaker phone, “homelink”.

I had thought about having those holes also covered same time had alcantara upholstered. But I may be mistaken, but think I recall the base that screws in was part of securing the headliner. So you kinda still want those. Since I already have my slicktop and alcantara headliner I’ll let someone else check to verify. I may be incorrect how much it secures.

It does in fact help hold the headliner up. I would imagine the door seal would be enough to hold up the headliner if someone wanted to delete the handles all together

The plastic bracket that helps hold the headliner up weighs basically nothing. Can buy some of the blanks that come stock on the driver's side for the passenger's side and use those to delete the handle. Helps if you need a bit more helmet room.

Psssst, those are the deletes I recommended in post #7 😎

Yes I get that. I was speaking in reference to delete as in a real “delete”. Covering those holes while also doing the headliner panel with one whole sheet of material (be it alcantara or stock cloth). If doing that type of delete one can no longer use the base holders to secure the headliner.

Yeah maybe. Although the factory slicktop headliner has thick foam blocks very close to those areas. I imagine it’s to keep rattles and squeaks down. An aftermarket version of this headliner panel might need those added to address annoying squeaks/rattles.
For reference here is the back of my headliner panel when I removed it to have it wrapped.

But your STOCK headliner is not the EURO headliner we're talking about in this thread. What kind of rattles and squeaks do you think a headliner would make that would be fixed with a foam block? Regardless the euro headliner doesn't have those blocks. Those appear to be used for spacing which the euro headliner doesn't require because it sits higher than your slick top headliner
