I have had (still have!)a leak in my 98 8012 sundowner and will have to replace a section of the headliner, probably one sheet. Any ideas on where to purchase? I have searched everywhere for the leak, I have re sealed seams, pulled the antenna, ac etc and cannot find. Any advice would be good

I had a friend who had their roof sealed in Florida. They had tried everything and could never find the leak. Check out rvroof.com, they can take care of your problem before you replace the headliner.

Thanks, I il Stripped seams, installed 4 " Eternabond tape and now only had one small leak (had a 4.5 inch down pour last night (it was was there before) by the door to mid tack. Don't think it is a roof seam so looking at other screw penetrations in the area( door hinges etc) h

Look at the drip shield.  My Sundowner was directing rain water to the door.  A bit of caulk on the end of drip shield directed the water out and away from the door.
