I installed one like they sell but it didnt come from them. I bought my headliner and painted it. Came out really nice. The trim is plastic. Has retangular clips that holds the trim to the roof that I broke off and I used screws and adhesive. Screws cant be any longer than 3.8 inch. Be very careful!

Here are the pics. As you can see, I took the liberty of adding a CB as well as a second dome light with independent switch.

The headliner comes from LMC with tweeters and I would definitly suggest switching at least 2 of them out for midranges. After the change of speakers the sound is real nice.
