ABSTRACT:
A vehicle headliner construction adapted to be mounted adjacent the underside of a vehicle roof and extend laterally between the longitudinal side edges of the roof and longitudinally between the front and rear edges of the roof, the headliner comprising at least one sheet or panel of a relatively rigid, but foldable material having an elongated reversely folded portion serving to rigidify and strengthen the headliner and provide a seam appearing line on the side of the headliner confronting the interior of the vehicle. In an alternative construction, the headliner may comprise two or more headliner sections or panels the adjacent edges of which are joined in a manner providing a seam line similar in appearance to the line provided by the reversely folded portion(s). The headliner may be either self-supporting or associated with support elements which cooperate with the folded portion and/or joined edges of adjacent headliner sections for supporting the headliner in its operative position within a vehicle.
