Product Description:
Hawks Motorsports offers our clients this 1970-1973 Camaro Sandalwood Premier Perforated Vinyl 5-Bow Headliner with Sun Visor Material, Acme 70-1413-PRP1180.
This replacement headliner is tailored for 1970-1973 Chevrolet Camaro two-door models equipped with the original suspended five-bow headliner system. It is manufactured from Sandalwood Premier Perforated Vinyl and pre-sewn using an original factory-style pattern for proper fit, texture and appearance. The exact product record identifies part number 70-1413-PRP1180, five-bow construction and 1970-1973 Camaro application.
The headliner is pre-sewn with five listings or sleeves that accept the vehicle’s original metal headliner bows. Before removing the existing headliner, each bow should be marked according to its front-to-rear position and transferred into the corresponding listing of the replacement headliner. The metal bows are not included.
Matching loose Sandalwood Premier Perforated Vinyl material is included for recovering the vehicle’s original sun visors. This is unfinished upholstery material. It does not include completed sun visors, replacement visor cores, support bars, mounting brackets or hardware.
Premier Perforated Vinyl is the factory-style material associated with deluxe-interior Camaro headliners. Standard-interior vehicles used a non-perforated material, so customers completing a factory-correct restoration should verify the vehicle’s original interior and headliner construction before ordering.
This is a tailored, pre-sewn bow-suspended headliner. It is not loose material by the yard, foam-backed board-recovering material, an ABS headliner board or a board-to-bow conversion kit.

FITMENT WARNINGS
Verify five bows before ordering: This headliner fits Camaro models equipped with the original suspended five-bow system. Count the existing bows and inspect the roof mounting points before removing the original headliner.
Closely inspect 1973 vehicles: Acme catalogs this headliner for 1970-1973 Camaro applications, but some current factory-style references narrow five-bow fitment to 1970 through early 1973. Confirm the actual headliner design rather than relying only on the model year.
Bows are not included: The five original metal bows must be transferred from the existing headliner or purchased separately.
Sun visor material is unfinished: The included matching material is intended for recovering the existing visor cores. It is not a pair of ready-to-install sun visors.
Material construction: Premier Perforated Vinyl is intended for deluxe-style interior applications. Standard-interior Camaros may require a non-perforated headliner.
Color control: Sandalwood is distinct from Brown, Saddle, Buckskin, Light Saddle and Camel Tan. A physical PRP1180 sample is recommended when precise matching with existing interior trim is required. The supplier notes that monitor settings can prevent exact on-screen color representation.
INSTALLATION NOTES
Before removing the original headliner, number each bow according to its position from front to rear. Bow lengths and contours may differ, so each bow should be returned to its original location.
Remove the sun visors, visor brackets, dome-light assembly, coat hooks, windlace and surrounding roof moldings as required to release the old headliner. Preserve all reusable original trim and mounting hardware.
Carefully remove the bows from the original headliner and insert them through the corresponding sewn listings in the replacement headliner. Do not interchange their positions or force them through the sleeves.
Position the replacement headliner inside the vehicle and establish its front-to-rear and side-to-side centerlines. Suspend all five bows before permanently securing the perimeter.
Stretch and secure the material gradually, working outward from the center and alternating between opposite sides. Pulling one side completely tight before adjusting the other can create diagonal wrinkles or shift the headliner off-center.
Do not trim excess perimeter material until the headliner is centered, evenly tensioned and checked for correct bow placement. Cut openings for the dome light, visor brackets, coat hooks and related accessories only after final positioning.
Use the included matching material to recover the original sun-visor cores. Recovering the visors may require cutting, sewing, edge binding and automotive upholstery equipment.
Windlace is not included and must be reused or purchased separately. Professional installation is recommended for proper bow sequencing, material tensioning and final trimming.
