Yep, I think it was 3M trim adhesive it didn't bleed through the fabric, tacked on contact, and adhered well. It's been over a year since I've redone the door panels and headliner and not a single issue to-date.

He doesn't have the heat up in Montana like down here in california. So if bet the 3m will hold up just fine.

I'm stationed in South Dakota, but yeah, the weather is only slightly warmer than Montana's.

Nice job 406! Turned out real nice and matches the brown/black interior well.

Very nice. I actually mulled over a real tree full body wrap at one point.

In hindsight I wish I would've lined up the camo pattern for the door panels so they would've mirrored eachother perfectly, but I was trying to use tailings from the headliner rather than chop into a fresh yard of the realtree. I was pretty surprised that symmetry of the pattern mattered much, but if the trees in the pattern weren't perfectly paralell with the doors, it stood out like a sore thumb. Everything was pulled from a junkyard earlier that day and looks pretty nasty in the 'before' pictures, but after a good cleaning they turned out pretty good IMO; no wrinkle/adhesion/fading problems. all in all it took like 2 hours and around $26.
afterthought... Those white visors matched the cab earlier that day, lol I was pretty surprised that I was able to save them with just a sponge and soap!
