Huh thats strange you would think that a dent is a dent huh!!!
but shure enough LMC list 2 different headliners, one for trucks and one for bronco.... different part numbers too, I checked...

Sell it make your money back, and if you did a good enough job and not in some custom colour you might be able to double your money!!!

This pic thing really busts my bawlls!!!!
Why does it have to be so damn difficult!!!!!
I'm jealous of you guys showing pics with progress, but I will figure it out one day.
My kids make it look sooooo easy but they are too quick for me too follow and I can't get them to "DUMB IT DOWN" for me.
Trust me when I tell you I want to post a pic every time I'm on!!!!!!!!
The truck is done and I want to show it off!!!!!

A Bronco headliner is 2 1/2" narrower than a F-series. Sorry you had to find out the hard way but I've posted that info before.

Lariat headliner cut to fit in my Bronco.

Ok, I have to do this too since you are so pleased with the results; where did you get the fabric and the board? I'll figure the rest out

when I made my headliner for my crewcab I used formica countetop board. Very flexible but yet rigid enough to stay up. I used black leather with a cotton padding to back it both of which I got from a local fabric store.

Mock up:








Installed, added a center dome light.

Board is an original from a 78 bronco and fabric came from an upholstery shop its for newer style vehicles with the foam made to the rear.

Yeah, I was having the same problems posting pics too. I finally just caved in and paid the $20 to become a paying member and now I can post pics. Ive heard you can do it without paying but I never could figure it out............................................... .....
