Headliner question

Anybody have pictures of what the original head liner looks like and consists of? Mine looks like a piece of plywood glue to something but I can't tell because he crappily spray painted that part and all the chrome trim white and then sent a bunch of self tapping screws through it. Thanks!

The original headliner for the most part is HD thin card board with a few covering options.
1. A porous (little holes) vinyl or some sort of very thin and eventually brittle covering.
2. Vinyl with lines pressed in it.
3. Vinyl with padding and 3 buttons

Here is a great repair thread. https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/1...eadliner+cheap

Awesome thanks! I tried search but I'm on mobile and it was hard to sort through. I'm guessing I had option number 1 guess it looks like it was sprayed over but there are tons of holes tho throughout it. Also I guess he glued that to a piece of Luan board. Maybe the screws are still factory... Anyway gives me a place to get started, thanks again!

Get the back splash material and some vinyl and slick it up. Paint thinner to clean off the spray on the chrome trim ring.

Normally velcro square in the middle or one screw right in the middle going to the center roof support.

Other than that the trim ring holds it up.
