Has anyone replaced the old piece of crap headliner with one of the new plastic colored ones that only require cutting out the hole for the courtesy lamp?

haha i know just so nice of me, I just feel like an *** when me/someone else jumps in to a common question with SEARCH. So depending on my mood i'll run a search to help... I was a lurker so long no one had to tell me to search, but low and behold someone nailed me on it the other day.

I put the ABS plastic headliner in my car and that was my thread above. I realy like it alot and its real sturdy. check out the pics in my cardomain, in my sig and ts on the 2nd page.

Thanks 83. I'm gonna buy it since it's all I need for the car.

Also if you read the thread above you will run into a dome light fit issue but can be fixed real easy.

Search for it! :P

Basically it has to be mounted backwards due to the headliner.

If you have map lights the hole has to be cut bigger but if you have just the regular dome light you just mount it backwords. Cool, I also see you are a member at MNFbody, so am I you prob seen me on there my user name is Fast2.8L.

im glad i aint the only one running around with a backwards dome light, lol

dont bother me none, i have lights on my mirror, and the rear seat needed a little more illumination haha

however

the fabric on the one i got from hawks is pretty crappy

its been in for about six months, and the top edges are already faded to grey from black, and they feel like they want to deteriorate already

at least its ABS and i can always recover it without much work though

LOL the dome light dont bother me ethier, the floor lights light most of the front of the car up. I have had mine for about 2 months no probs yet. Only think I see is some kind of black glue on the corner of my headliner but that came off the car.

HEY

i wondered if Camaro's had floor lights too

my brothers 86 Firebird also had them, and I was jealous

now i have to crawl down there and see if my bulbs are blown or if it's just the fuse
