Also I would like to know if anybody has used b-quiet(brown bread) prior to installing the headliner? Would it or does it cause any interference?

Custom headliners are easy, I did one not to long ago for my truck.
I used 1/4" foam and cut out flames and glued them to the stock foam board, then covered it with black faux leather, and topped off with an overhead console.
Like this


This link should help some

This is the foam I used, It works great. The entire headliner cost me probably 50 bucks after putting it all together.

Re: Headliners

My son did the flame cut-out on his but got tired of it, so now he is making a fiberglass one painted to match his truck. I'll keep you posted on how it turns out.

Re: Headliners
