Default 95 Red 850 Turbo

I have been away and just wanted to drop in and say hi. While away did the following: picked up some nice used 17" anthracite Volans with Kumho tires, new pnp switch, timing belt, serp belt, new hoses, bilsteins. Looking to save money for IPD lowering springs & sagging headliner. My mechanic said the glue the Swedes used was enviromentally friendly and just wasn't up to par after several years.

Yeah, my sons 850 has the sagging headliner disease too. His car must be a girl. As it got older certain parts started sagging.

Hmmm, The S70 has de-glued door panels but the headliner is great And I live in Central Texas.

Yeah, same here on the S70 rear door panels. Any tricks to fixing those or just take it to upholstery shop?
