• B pillars and probably headliner later.  The usual assorted goo I had on hand seems to make the vinyl look funky.
  Recommendations?

• 3M contact spray adhesives are great... you need to apply to both sides, let it dry a bit, then assemble. Pro shops use it for headliners etc. Make sure to get rid of as much old glue as possible first.

• I used the 3M spray on contact stuff for my carpets and headliner.  Initially it was great to use but over the last year or so the headliner keeps coming down.  I have reapplied to both sides as mentioned before and still it won't stick for very long.  The carpet sticks great but spray went on top of that black tar like stuff and the carpet has a plastic backing not fiber. 
  
  I think the headliner problem is related to the insulation I put up there.  It is nothing more than a thin 1/2 inch camping pad and it sticks to the metal just fine.  But the fabric to foam connection is not working for me.

• Further aggressive googling leads me to this stuff..

• 3m has a spray 80 for vinyl but it takes some getting used to so you can use it correctly. The stuff you linked is like 3m spray 90 which is high strength, but not really for plastics/vinyl. 3m spray 24 or 74 is the foam and fabric that will bond those substrates to about anything well, but as with our head liners the stuff it bonds to is weaker than the bond. So usually it will fall unless you can put something on the hard part for it to bond to.
  Never used but heard good stuff about this
