that looks really sweet! i've redone the headliner in my other car, process is pretty straightforward. You'd need to locate a supplier that carries foam-backed camo fabric. from there it's:

1. remove headliner from truck
2. remove old fabric and foam, sand down if need be to make sure the surface is flat. be very careful not to crack the carboard / foam
3. get a good quality headliner adhesive spray, do not cheap out. i've used 3M and have had no issues for 2+ years so far.
4. cut fabric to size, only need a few inches overhang on each end
5. spray 1/2 the headliner at a time with the glue and lay it down from the center outward, careful not to stretch it but at the same time not to have it bunch up
6. do the other side and stick'r back in

there's a bunch of vids of how to do this on youtube, but this is the gist of it. not sure about the visors, however.

I have a problem with doing this!!! 90% of the sites im finding that sell the fabric im looking for only sell it in 60" X 36" and the headliner in my truck is 55" long and 40" wide so i need a sheet thats atleast 60" X 42"

MvZiC MaN · Oct 20, 2012

js99ram · Oct 21, 2012
