i know some of you have done this to your trucks, what i need to know is how much material will i need? width and length... thanks

 

a lot. lol.

stockinteriors.com has a DIY kit, their biggest size should fit. Only problem is it looks like their beige won't match so I'm gonna go with black.

 

oh i'm not trying to look stock at all... i got a little something special in mind, i just need to know the dimensions required to know if it will work or not...

 

Well if it helps at all the kit I mentioned was 3.5 yards by 60".

edit-and post pics when you're done

 

yeah the width is what i am worried about... i will just pull a tape on it when i get off work and see whats what...

 

It needs to be 60" or more.

 

one more question... does it need to be a material that stretches or one that does not?

 

I'm doing mine this weekend, something special too. There is a place on ebay that sells the material for Discovery's. They said it had to be 65" wide. I measured mine and I came up with 60" (D2). They also said that could not be over 1/8" thick (I think), because of sunroofs (if you have them). I have two, but don't see where the thickness would make a difference, as the aperature is seperate and seems to have plenty of room for a thicker headliner. Will let you all know how it goes.

 

cool yeah post up what happens with yours... i have no sunroofs in my D1 so thats a little easier on me...

 

I have no sun roofs. i removed my headliner board, cleaned the old glue off and im painting the board black. No more sagging fabric! I'll post pics when i'm done.
