What is the carpet type stuff on the roof of a car called?

I'd appreciate a quick response if possible.

Now here's a clever idea. Why don't you just Google "carpet type stuff on the roof of a car"?

Ok, I'll help a little. I did it for you. And look at what I found.

Car Interior Restoration - Drive Magazine

All in under 1 second.

How's that for fast?

It's the same in the US - headlining or headliner.
