Plush, Caddy like rear package tray going in… Still have to make the rear sail panels and get those in place. Then I can install the rear window. I’m really looking forward to that.

Trying to get the rest on this headliner installation sorted. Need to know which goes on first, the roof rail weatherstrip channel or the headliner trim on the inside of that channel. It’s been a long time since I’ve had to do one of these.

Blacked out a band around the inside of the rear window. It’s going in tomorrow.

Getting there…. Once the urethane sets up I can add the trim and black screws.

Removed the masking and cleaned it off. Added the front windshield trim clips. I was short two clips and screws so I’m assuming the packager miscounted. I’m ready to install the windshield, but I need to clean it and decide if I want to add a tint strip across the top. No sun visors so I’m leaning towards installing it. Carpet showed up as did the trunk lock and door cylinders. Progress.

A few more pieces of progress…
I got the interior headliner side trim painted and installed. Then both roof rail weatherstrip channels on. It’s been so long since I did this stuff I needed a refresher on how it goes together. Sheesh.
Fancy new roof rail weather strip as well.
I also painted the rain gutter trim and installed it as well. I spent 4 hours tapping out all the dings. Installing was tough at first but it actually went on pretty smoothly once I got it started.

I started fitting the carpet and the rear piece was extremely difficult with the cage floor bars coming through that area. Combining the cage bars with a much taller drive shaft tunnel and larger trans tunnel made things difficult and I wasn’t sure it would fit. I ended up cutting and fitting the rear piece into 3 pieces and it will need glued in place to stay and look nice. The front section went in easier and I just need to trim for the door bars. Should be simple enough. I’m liking the stock appearance of the carpets. It’ll help tone down my carbon fiber door panels, lol.

It’s the simple things that make a great paint job even if they look nothing like the original ones lol
