do you mean all the interior?? its easy and hard at the same time. so far ive done my headliner, part of the doors, and the kick panels. anything thats got major curves is tough tho. i used 3m glue, 77 i think? or maybe the 90 i cant remember. might wanna practice on something first to get good at it. i re-did my headliner twice, and theres still tiny little imperfections, but only i notice them. also, thicker vinyl is harder to work with but seemed to work better for me, when i tried thin vinyl it had some type of reaction to my glue and created huge bubbles, it was bisare.

anyway, good luck.. ill try to post some pictures soon.

Here's the driver door. It's a pain in the ass, we're going to redo them this winter, using heat on the vinyl to mold it better. My camera is shitty so excuse the color.

I have done a few parts of my interior in a blue suede which is alittle thinner than the good vinyl. The biggest problem will be doing corners I use the 3m super strength stuff its rated at 90 something a auto parts personnel told me headliner spray would work but It fell apart in few days. If you try it just make sure you use the stickiest shit you can find.

Not sure what you guys are using, but I can get ahold of rather thin vinyl that is heat molded and is not to heavy for spray adhesive. The idea with spray adhesive is to spray your vinyl AND your surface, let them semi dry and then press them together...same thing you do with speaker boxes.
