So, I started my headliner project. Here is the result of day 1:

I pulled all the pillars.


I vinyl-wrapped them with 3M 1080 black brushed-metal


Added a piece of clear door trim to help protect the vinyl-wrap from tearing on the seatbelt



It is still on on-going process with the vinyl-wrap, but I hope to get the rest done today.

Day 2 will be pulling the headliner and wiring it.

Haha, yeah I fought with that thing for a day or so, trying to clean off the old foam. Thanks for the advice on it!

Oh I see what happened I commented on this one not the other. I thought I was going nuts. lol

What did you use to remove your foam I just used a regular kitchen sponge. It took my maybe 3+ hours to remove all of it.

LMAO! I guess that's what I get for doing 2 build threads.

It's finished and installed!

I replaced the needles again lol Also, I installed new SMD LED lights into the cluster 100 times brighter!



Here is the lighting! I am kinda bummed about the D/S visor light bulb, it didn't work but I got a new bulb on the way! (all bulbs are from superbrightleds)




I figured that since I have the visor lights, I can just put blue bulbs in the map lights lol


I also got Ford valve stem caps :)
