Question Rod Doors Console Installation

Has anybody used the Rod Doors overhead console to install their cd player. If so, how did you go about trimming the console to fit snug to your headliner? Also, how did you secure it to the headliner? Thanks, John (I'm installing one in my 54 f100 and am a little apprehensive.)

can you get your hands on an auto body contour guage?
that'd prolly be the easiest way to get the right profile

I never heard of such a thing. Can you explain what it looks like and where I might get one? Thanks, John

it like many fingers paralell to each other with a bolt through a slot down the center so the fingers can slide llllllllllllllllllll
you put it against the contour you want to match and tighten the bolt to lock it in place

maybe try the Eastwood company
