Re: head liner

if you cut out the holes for the trim, then yes.
I glued the headliner in mine and said screw the trim. (you have to glue the headliner in place either way)

Re: head liner

The roof in a truck that had a headliner has cut outs for the trim. I have seen people on here selling headliner templates so you can convert. I have also seen people use the trim but cut off the parts that went into the recessed area and just used the screws to secure it to the roof.

Re: head liner

Re: head liner

Very true, hate to see someone with a bunch of screws sticking through the roof of their truck.
