You may or may not be able to keep the mirror sometimes its not an option, I took mine out. Here are some pics for future since this has been brought up many times, and i've also got multiple pms, My headliner is done right over the stock one, visors the material was stripped and the mirrors are under the fabric. Also someone asked me a while back what it looked like w/o the trim ring for the sunroof. also why did you trace out your old material, its soooo much easier just to lay it out glue it (with the correct glue, not that shit you used) and stretch and trim. The old one is not necessarily gonna be the right pattern after its been stretched off and hanging down for a while. EDIT- Yes i have a grey pillar im lookin for an avenger one w/o the grab handle hole =) so until then deal with my mismatchedness.
i didnt trace my old material out. heres what happened. when i did the headliner a few days for the first time, i was told to use the incorrect glue, so i went with the 3m all purpose adhesive. it was fine for like a day an a half, then when it got to 98 outside and prolly some more inside the car, it just all let go, except the edges, so i ended up with an upside down red bubble in the car hangin over my head. when i put on the new fabric it bonded to the old grey fabric and i cant peel em apart. i decided to just leave it there. when i ripped it all off yesterday i found out what let go. it was the foamy shit on the backing. this stuff got baked in the sub over the years and it was crumpling out. i had to clean it out. thats the stuff that look like tacomeat in the photos.
i had to get that off the backing and the back of the factory cloth, in the pic you see both of em stuck together so it looked traced. your pics look nice, but im wondering how that material feels to touch. it looks a little rough, but maybe its just the way the pics look. when i was picking out my material i went for the nice sot velvetty feeling material, so its nice to touch. i do realize im not going to be sleeping on that, but still, i wanted to find something that feels nice. what did you use to tuck in the fabric, just a flathead screwdriver?I just wish my car was as fast as it was loud. people tell me i should use my sub to push it, it might go faster.
