how to repair tears in roof lining??!

I've got little tears in my roof lining that I would like to repair. I figured if I put a piece of gaffer tape on the inside of the tear it would close it up, but the problem is that because there is a space between the lining and the roof you can't apply any pressure so it doesn't work.

I once saw a post on this topic but couldnt' find it by searching. Does anyone know the link or have any ideas of how to repair tears??!

What are we talking??/

bus or bug???

If a bug it would be better to replace the hood - but yeah $$$$

Bus - forget it too dear.

You could get one of those curved needles - like what a doctor sews u up with and GENTLY do it.

May be take it to a trimmer and see what he charges???

Bus:( Might give it a go with a curved needle, sounds like it should work. Nice one!
