Hyundai Getz Headliner
Whether your Getz is an early or late build, we match the headliner to your derivative rather than to the badge
What Are Hyundai Getz Headliner?
The headliner is the foam-backed fabric panel that covers the inside of your Hyundai roof. It sags first around the mirror mount and the sunroof aperture on older Accent, Sonata and Elantra cars, once the factory adhesive gives up under a South African summer.
Signs You Need New Headliner
Getz generations and headliner — the short version
Does one headliner listing cover every Getz?
No. The Getz reached South Africa as TB (a single generation, pre- and post-facelift), and that alone changes what fits.The facelift changed lighting and front-end trim, so a body or lamp part that fits an early TB may not fit a late one even though the mechanical parts interchange freely.
Which engine is in my Getz?
SA-market cars were sold with Alpha 1.3/1.4 and Alpha II 1.6. The code stamped on the block settles it — the badge on the boot does not.
What do you need from me to quote headliner?
The trim level, the interior colour, and whether the car has leather or cloth. Trim level drives almost everything inside a Hyundai — seat fabric, console mouldings and switchgear all differ between base and Elite or Executive derivatives of the same car.
In South Africa the Getz is mostly long out of production but still everywhere on South African roads, which makes the Getz a used-parts car first and a new-parts car second. That is the wear pattern we stock and source against.
Before You Order Getz Headliner
Will headliner from another Getz fit mine?
Not automatically. The Getz sold in South Africa as TB (a single generation, pre- and post-facelift), and the facelift changed lighting and front-end trim, so a body or lamp part that fits an early TB may not fit a late one even though the mechanical parts interchange freely. Send us the generation code off your VIN plate and we will confirm it either way before anything is dispatched.
How do you check headliner actually fits a Getz?
We work backwards from the VIN: generation first, then engine family, then whether the car is pre- or post-facelift within that generation. On the Getz specifically, the facelift changed lighting and front-end trim, so a body or lamp part that fits an early TB may not fit a late one even though the mechanical parts interchange freely.
How much does it cost to replace a Hyundai headliner?
A full retrim through an SA auto-upholsterer typically runs R2,600-R6,200 depending on panel size and fabric choice. A used headliner through Pro Hyundai Spares costs less, but matching colour and condition is the challenge.
How do you fix a sagging headliner in a Hyundai?
The proper fix is dropping the panel, stripping the old fabric and foam and bonding new material with high-temp trim adhesive. Pins and tacks are a short-term trick that leaves visible dots and rarely outlasts one summer.
What causes a Hyundai headliner to sag?
The factory polyurethane foam between fabric and roof board breaks down after 10-15 years of heat and UV. SA summers, black cars and cars parked outside accelerate it. The foam turns to dust, so the fabric has nothing to hold onto.
Can you repair a Hyundai headliner without replacing it?
Small sags near edges respond to careful re-gluing with 3M Super 77 or similar. Large central sags almost always need a full retrim, because the foam layer itself is gone and glue alone will not hold the weight.
Where can I buy a Hyundai headliner in South Africa?
Pro Hyundai Spares sources used headliners for the Accent, Sonata, Elantra and Creta. Most owners end up at a local trim shop for a retrim instead. Send us your VIN and we will quote both options side by side.

Let us confirm the headliner before you buy
Photos of the old part and your VIN are usually all we need. We confirm the headliner against your Getz before quoting, not after.
