Does anyone feel this would make good headliner material? I need to redo my headliner and was thinking something along these lines. Opinons?

I would say NO. It is carpeting, it does stretch but in my opinion it would look silly for a headliner, it's a rough, scratchy material, awesome for speaker boxes, not so much for a headliner

The only issue I have with using this as a headliner, is that it holds debris like velcro... might get annoying. You would also want to put foam under it or it won't be thick enough.

Yes but you will want to securely attach to roof or with a piece of wood behind the headliner. It is a good size for the back row. I have had no problems and it was properly installed.

Hi, I'll be glad to give you my thoughts on this.The LED lights get a little warm bu not to melt the type of material you will use those against acrylic/polycarb.Go for it, these look amazing.

It should. As long as the power connector is present above the headliner it will work.

I'd suggest face up so people can see it. It doesn't do anything anyway, so if you paid that much for it...show it off!

Tops as in top ends sound like mids and high it should do well. What's tops? I have to DJ speakers and might chain link one more. Please write back,Kjv prod.

I wouldn't expect anything, especially without a custom tune. It's more for looks and sound, IMO.

If your vehicle has an auto dimming mirror, factory installed, then you already have a 12V source coming out of you headliner. If you dont, then you want to wire it from a good 12v source and ground, run it up the headliner and down an A-pillar. If you really dont want to do that, do what I did and pay someone to professionally install it.

I'm not sure how you would make it attach to a headliner (wouldn't work like that on any of my cars). I would think another concern would be ensuring it's at the right angle and that the car's metal roof isn't interfering with the signal.The good thing about using the visor, is you can adjust the angle of the detector for optimal reception.

In a band situation it might be difficult. When I use the lights for a band I pre-program them to DMX so I have exactly what I want. When I'm DJing, I find the best spot to mount them is near the sub so they're more active to the beat rather than the vocals. One option you might have is if you could send a completely separate stage monitor to be next to the light stand and only have the bass guitar or kick drum sent to this monitor. Adjust the sensitivity to that.

In my experience (2003 Xterra), I had to remove the whole headliner from my truck. I wanted to ensure that the bond was thorough and would last. This is a tough job depending on your car but it is well worth it. 1. I removed the headliner from the vehicle and removed the old headliner fabric. 2. I highly recommend that you scrub off the old foam from the headliner so the adhesive has a fresh surface to adhere to. 3. Measure your headliner size and purchase fabric from any fabric store. Then you will make the proper cuts for lights, visors, etc. 4. Before spraying adhesive, lay out the new fabric to ensure it is in place. Work one side at a time (front then back). 5. The adhesive has different settings for spraying but make sure the area is covered thoroughly (the headliner and the fabric need to be sprayed), let it sit for a minute then firmly press the headliner material onto the adhesive. Making sure bubbles and gaps do not appear. Repeat this on the other side. 6. I let my headliner dry for about 2 hours before placing it back into my truck. This is all dependent on the type of car you have and how thorough of a job you would like to do. You can easily just spray and go but your results might just be a temporary fix.

i imagine you can but there isn't a way to cover the leftover fabric. the headliner excess goes under the board, the visors have no place to hide that.

I was unimpressed by it, honestly. You would definitely have better sound by purchasing a cheap Pioneer or Sony 6 or 8" subwoofer from walmart and building a custom box (1/2" MDF optimal)...cheaper and only takes ~1 hour max (added time for sealant to dry); this is what I did for the 12" subwoofers in my truck and the 8" subwoofer I have for my living room stereo. So I say don't go for it unless you have "loose" wooden floors and a good enclosed corner to place the main unit so that the acoustics of the subwoofer will be 'naturally' amplified.

Not headliner, but i use it on my sun visor. Had to bend it open just a little to get it to fit right. Has a good line of sight.

I used my own wax and everything seemed okay. I think you should be fine I used my own wax cause I didn't really like the finish the 3m left. I wanted a better shine.

i read some other guys doing it, but i think you will be a little weak on power, and i had a problum over heating when used at 90% gain. i had to back down to 60%to solve the over heating auto shut down, its a nice clean amp and at 60% it will push my 4 polk audio db651s very very loud and clear....i have 2 8in subs that will shake the car using a boss R1100m amp .....myself ,go with 2 amps, or just one on the subs and the fullrange off the head. the boss is low cost ,and has been getting thrashed 2 hrs a day 6 days a week for almost a year and every thing in the car works as new...... hope this helped

I went to a local car audio store to get the correct wire harness adapter and dash trim/din set, I would recommend finding a local car audio store that sells those parts to you can connect everything right and have it look nice. Mine looked awesome and played great, I don't have the car I put it in any more, and I really miss it.
