Thanks man, I need to get another headliner retainer strip for the drivers ttop opening then the headliner will be completely finished. I also got my dome light in and working. I was afraid with all my wiring that I did that the dome light would stop working but it ended up working out alright, had to pop a door ajar switch from my parts car cause the one was faulty for the drivers side. I'm in need of a drivers side 79-86 a pillar trim cause I only have the passengers side.

I wish my interior wasn't blue

Yours is coming out awesome. I loved swapped dashs in fox's... Makes them look so much more modern. I wish i could swap the dash and still have my 5.0 and all stock wiring, but no way i could do that.

I did the exact same thing for my headliner, only I cleaned up and reused my original T-Top backing. Went to Jo-Ann and bought fabric, cut it to size, and put it all in on my own. I'm not sure what exactly you used, but did you see Jo-Ann actually carries automotive upholstery specifically for stuff like that?

Did this jus now, I had a really hard time cutting a big ol hole in a carpet that came out of a wrecked 93 Cobra that was totalled in 94 with 13,000k on it. lol I like the way it looks. I need to run the power cable to a switch and then into the box so its a little haggard right now. Now onto the door panel fab...............

Here's what I got so far, its FAR from done. Gonna be alot of head scratching on this one. I think its eventually going to be a two peice door panel so I can keep the seam through the middle of the door panel.
