HighLife...that's great man! I've been meaning to do my headliner for years, just can't decide on a fabric! How did you remove it...fold it and yank it, or out the back window?

1%, but I just pulled it off and ill be moving up to 20% because of the FHP cracking down on the bull**** laws so they can tax and fine their way out of a budget crisis. and I was reshaping and covering my headrests at the time. if you pull all of your headrests out it makes the inside of your truck feel ENORMOUS but it looks retarded for some reason.

Man, its simple. Just remove all your seatbelt mounts on the pillars, pull all the plasic off the pillars and your dome light and overhead console. Lay all your seats down, then just yank that bitch out, fold it in half, turn it sideways and do it to it. I pulled it out of the passenger front door. You wont see the fold when its done, especially if your using camo, but I didnt see a crease after I folded it even in the factory color. Just make sure that you only fold it as much as you need to to get it out.

Id rather have had those. My headrests looked like giant twinkies sitting on top of my seats.

After Duplicolor flat black vinyl paint (the camera shows some weird reflection or something here...the black looks uniform in person) :


And after the expy console, painted with the same duplicolor rattlecan:

Yeah I'm leaving the dash as-is...the lines on the pass. side don't flow well enough to have a tu-tone imo. Painting just the airbag looks out of place, painting the glove box door looks out of place.

And I've had the expy console for quite awhile now...back when my truck still had the billet grille on. Maybe two years now? Not sure...but it's no longer solid black; the base of the console is tan and the top & lid are black. I need to take some updated pics.
