Hey John, how hard was it to get to that headliner?  Is it a whole day thing where you have to move other stuff to get to it, or a few hours?

Irwin...I'll let others chime in on this as well, as I know Toro and Deadpilot have recently dropped their headliners.

It took me about 30 minutes of prep work to drop the front portion of the headliner to access the roof top wiring from my rack.

To drop the whole headliner it will probably take most of the day. A lot of the interior piece has to come out. (At least that's how I did it) The big pain is taking all the tape off the wires and washer fluid line off the head liner.

John,  yea this is the one I fabbed myself.

Dude, bring it over. We'll have the headliner out in 20 min.

In a past life, I've removed hundreds of headliners. Everything from the top of the doors to the roof, has to come out. Most of it is held on by clips.

Yea I took all that stuff out. Maybe it would have been easier if I took off the seat belt cover things...

 That's a really nice looking light bar you installed. I bet that turns night into day judging by that pic.

- Installed Midland CB with Bandit RF filter and "Little Wil" antenna.

- Installed Highlift Jack with Neoprene Cover and Nisstec Lotus Slider Adapter on Highlift Tube mounts (during Mojave Road run... thanks Terry!) (with functional test... :P )

- Converted Smittybuilt Air Compressor to standard 1/4" air fittings (now it plays nice with my ARB guages)
