An acetabular liner insertion guide (10) aligns a liner (12) within an acetabular shell. The liner includes a ring (16) and a penetrable layer (14). The ring includes a lip configured to rest on an upper surface of the acetabular shell. The ring is also configured to attach to the liner such that an upper surface of the liner is in a plane that is generally parallel to a plane that includes the upper surface of the acetabular shell. The penetrable layer is configured to receive an impactor and overlie the liner. When the insertion guide is placed on the shell and the impactor impacts the liner, the insertion guide separates from the liner and remains on the impactor.
