Got a couple better pics of the tailgate, and also got the headliner covered! I always say overkill is underrated, I used 3 whole cans of 3M 90 adhesive. I must say I LOVE the headliner material that Hancock Fabrics had, I'd definitely recommend spending the extra few dollars on it when anyone does theirs. I had absolutely ZERO wrinkles to deal with. I think the plastic foam backing it has promotes adhesion also, allows the glue to soak in it a little bit and really hold well. I test glued a small piece to the center of the headliner and after 10 minutes I picked up the headliner by the small piece and it held the weight of the entire thing!

Cab lights! Didn't have time to finish wiring them up today, but I have all the wires run. I've decided to tie the cab lights and mirrors into a switch on the dash to use them all as running lights that never blink. Got to pick up a switch. I got the headliner up and decided to call it a day when I got to the visors. I can't stand trying to get them back in grrrrrr I'll tackle them tomorrow. New headliner looks so awesome though.

Looking good man. Really like the gate, wish I could find a gmc one like that.

I want cab lights too, but scared about drilling all the holes in my roof....

Just measure, measure, and measure. I did like most others did and taped off the front of my roof with white masking tape and went to town with a tape measure and a pen.
