PDF Headliner Pattern
My wife found a way to post a link. Just click on this link and download the pattern. It can be printed on any 36 or 48 inch plotter.
2 suggestions
1) Be sure to use a material you can bend or make some way to bend it. I used FRP, and I had to heat the back pillar pieces, and the large headliner piece to get them to bend without breaking.
2) The pattern has holes, but I recommend you fit and drill to fit your truck. I had some holes not quite line up.
I Used FRP, (Fiber Reinforced Panel) available at any home supply store like Lowes or Home Depot.
Good Luck!! Hope this helps.
File is linked below. This one didn't work right.

likeagoodbook, I saw some other ideas, on how to make a pattern easily available, and just used my skills to make it easy to distribute.
Our trucks are near visual twins. Mine is very stock, and very plain, but primer gray, and not likely to get paint soon.

Broom,
Do you know what sized paper this file is set up to work with? Usually that information is usually imbedded in the pdf file and prompts you when you try and print without any scaling and is crucial to the file printing in the correct scale and size, this file seems to be defaulting to 8 1/2" x 11" which I know is not correct. Let me know if there is something that I'm not getting right or another trick I need to use.
Thanks again.

I don't know what happened, but those files ended up messed up. I re-uploaded them. Go get the new ones here.

I just thought I would post another picture of my Headliner after I put Door Edge molding on it.
