My jeep has water stains on the headliner and I have no idea how they got there but what's the best way to remove them? Or clean them enough to not be visible |

I've been able to get mine out using a washcloth, water, and Dr. Bronner's Castille soap. The big question, though, is how the water stains got there. A few common options: 1) Rear hatch window seal leaking 2) Rear hatch door weatherstripping leaking 3) Roof rack bolt holes leaking There are TSB's on all 3 in the KK tech section. I've personally fixed #1 and #2 on my KK. The center brake light may be another potential place to check. Good luck! |

They're by the sunroof(pretty self explanatory)and around the top of both the the A-Pillars. Then there's some in random spots on the roof which confuses me how they got there since there's no open, or areas that could be open, around it. |

Ha! I don't have a sunroof, so I didn't think of that. Maybe the drain channels around the sunroof are plugged, so water overflows under your headliner? |

Not sure. All I know is that I bought it like that and I left it alone(I know stupid thing to do)because it wasn't getting worse. And ha! Back at cha cause the sunroofs actually pretty nice lol |

I'm also an optimist. There is nothing to fix if the P.O. just forgot to close the sunroof during a heavy rainstorm! That would explain the old water stains that don't get bigger. |

Your probably right with that. I got it from a dealership with a bad reputation with weather and have had other problems but they're fixed now...all but the one that happened tonight but yeah I guess I'll just have to start digging for the source |
