Mine, a 94, collapsed too. I think I remember seeing it discussed here before.

Even though I'm 6'1" I've decided I can live with it as I normally don't notice it unless I look at it, especaially with both sun visors turned up. Too much trouble to fix.

That combined with the way the outer hinged flaps on both sunvisors went bad is rather irksome too. And my climate control controls don't always respond.

Never had those kind of quality control issues on the interior of my 280ZX.

But then again, the Vette is way more car than any comparable Z car.

Take the good with the bad.

Easy fix just remove it go to fabric store get some new material and some 3M spray adhesive. Use the search function lots of threads about fixing it

Its an easy fix......I cut three sides (right side, left side and the front).
Used 3M adhesive on the cork backing, let it set up for 10 minutes, then rolled the existing headliner back on. Its as good as new.
