Headliner sag

well my headliner is sagging on the drivers side of my 97' F-150. I was planning on buying some Heavy Headliner spray glue and fixing it. I did notice that when it is hot in the cab the headliner really sags but when the AC is on it tightens up. Should I use a heat gun or blow dryer to make it sag some more so I can get the headliner on every spot? Or is this a job I should have some "professional" do?

I took a look on JCWhitney.com and found a product called "Cover-Over". They are headliner kits that are held up by what looks like long pieces of wire. Has anyone used these kits? Are they difficult to install?

Personally, to make 110% sure the job is done well, I'd take it to an upholstry shop. They should be able to take care of your problem and do it pretty cheap.

GOOD LUCK

Well, I took her into the auto trim place at 7 this morning and just picked it up about 2 hours ago. It looks real good. Better than the original headliner in my opinion. He got a pretty good match too. I like this one a lot better because it has more of a smooth tecture to it. And it only cost me $54.50
Thanks for the advice.
