Here is a solution that does not require going to Walmat. HotHead Headliners, you can see them at www.hotheadheadliners.com. We tested several different brands of velcro, the only one that withstands the heat is a Velcro brand product with an acrylic base adhesive the is temperature rate for -20 to 225 degrees F. We tested it at 300+ degrees with a heat lamp and it still held quite securely. These headliners also reduce outside noise levels, make your stereo sound better, and they look like a factory product.
If you have any questions or comments please let my know.

-20 is good for down south but we get below -40 for a two to three weeks in Jan and Feb do you have an option for glues then.

The extrem cold is something that we haven't tested the Velcro adhesive in yet. The temperature rateing on the adhesive is -20 to 225 degrees F, but it performs well at 300+, so I think it will probably be fine in -40. We will do some tests in the next couple weeks to find out for sure though. As for a glue alternative, I have an industral strength contact cement that is unaffected at 300 degrees, so I will test that in the cold as well.
