Default best company\headliner to use

so i did a search on the 70-73 & general interior forums and most of the info was many years old so i figured i'd ask again, what's the best headliner\company to use when replacing your headliner ?

71 standard interior, dark saddle (might be just saddle) , 8" from #1 rod to #2 rod (yep, learned that from my search )

anyone ?

I have used, installed the PUI Headliners and have no issues, however I was not picky about the pattern or "Grain". I had a '71 Formula with Saddle and put a Headliner in it, and went well. If you do it yourself get some spray 3M glue and have a hair drier ready. They go on from back to front.

Way back in 2000 when I replaced the headliner in my '71 T/A it was manufactured by a company named REM Automotive. Seems like a lot of interior parts that Ames Performance sells come from them. The color and grain matched the original headliner. My car has the deluxe interior. I believe standard interior used a different headliner grain pattern.

Default headliner

I used legendary on my 1972 TA and was very happy with it.
