Re: Headliner with built in speakers
Finally got the Highliner mounted.
It was black, and I used SEM Super White paint on it. It turned out well. The color is very close to the factory shade of parchment. It was a two person task. It's not heavy, just awkward. I ran the wires first. Rather than run the exposed down the b pillar, I drilled a hole in the upper corner of the ceiling on the passenger side to run the 4 speaker wires. It came with foam padding which I taped to the top of it before installing. Rather than use the speakers that came with it, I bought these Alpine 4". I figured they they would have better quality sound. They were an exact fit. There were no provisions for the inner visor brackets. We installed a new header panel and the body shop filled in the holes for them when they filled in the ceiling mount mirror bracket. I'm pleased with the fitment and the quality. Now we'll see how it works out going down the road.

Re: Headliner with built in speakers
What is all the center stuff in the front for. It's just a big opening for? Is there suppose to be some kind of cover that goes over it?

Re: Headliner with built in speakers
Soo now that you've had it a few years what are your thoughts? Good idea or bad idea?

Re: Headliner with built in speakers
Well it's an old thread but someone commented last fall. I have one of these in a truck I bought 10 years ago. It is fine and doesn't rattle. I am going to take mine out and put the interior back to original. Sound quality would be dependent on the radio and speakers but the highliner is a good piece.
