installed the headliner "backing plate" today .. and "prepped" for the cab/canopy transition .. I used the original Trekker "cab rienforcement" roof piece .. as a "transition" for the canopy/cab fabric headliner

well again , I am waiting for the uhplostery guy to do the headliner .. he was supose to be here the previous week , but did not show up , then he finally showed up last week to take measurements , to order the material .. so I guess because of the snow storm back east , he didnt get it , and it's supose to be here this comming week .. I hope so .. so I have just been "tying" up some loose ends .. got the other canopy strip , stripped and both of them painted ![[Linked Image]](http://i76.photobucket.com/albums/j2/bj_bumperboy/MY%20Trekker/SSPX0670.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](http://i76.photobucket.com/albums/j2/bj_bumperboy/MY%20Trekker/SSPX0671.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](http://i76.photobucket.com/albums/j2/bj_bumperboy/MY%20Trekker/SSPX0673.jpg) also finished up the tail lamps .. Ordered new lenses , because the old ones were ... well old and 1 was broken .. ![[Linked Image]](http://i76.photobucket.com/albums/j2/bj_bumperboy/MY%20Trekker/SSPX0675.jpg) The Mojave Chrome lamps i'm using have the back-up lamp chrome surround and the new lenses just have the black ones .. So I proceeded to drill out the mount stems and remove the black surrounds as well as the chrome ones ![[Linked Image]](http://i76.photobucket.com/albums/j2/bj_bumperboy/MY%20Trekker/SSPX0676.jpg) removing the chrome ones I noticed there were both marked R .. huh !! ![[Linked Image]](http://i76.photobucket.com/albums/j2/bj_bumperboy/MY%20Trekker/SSPX0677.jpg) and got the pieces swaped ![[Linked Image]](http://i76.photobucket.com/albums/j2/bj_bumperboy/MY%20Trekker/SSPX0678.jpg) and tail lamps installed ![[Linked Image]](http://i76.photobucket.com/albums/j2/bj_bumperboy/MY%20Trekker/SSPX0679.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](http://i76.photobucket.com/albums/j2/bj_bumperboy/MY%20Trekker/SSPX0680.jpg) just got to get the canopy on now !! .

thanks guys ... so good news ... my headliner material is in .. Talked to my uhplstery guy and It looks like a sunday install I had to "level" the roof strips and install a couple of "tack strips" . Because the headliner wont be 1 piece and will have to be sewn , We decided to follow the body line , to give it a "subtle" custom look .. also I added a rear dome lamp mount .. ![[Linked Image]](http://i76.photobucket.com/albums/j2/bj_bumperboy/MY%20Trekker/SSPX0683.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](http://i76.photobucket.com/albums/j2/bj_bumperboy/MY%20Trekker/SSPX0685.jpg) .

well .. sunday has come and gone .. another bust on the interior . ![[Linked Image]](http://i76.photobucket.com/albums/j2/bj_bumperboy/MY%20Trekker/SSPX0687.jpg) started off all well and fine .. trimmed out the centersection , cut and fit , and Tony took it back to his shop for some sewing ... well I guess his sewing machine took a turn for the worst , and decided not to work . Broke all of his needles , so I guess he has to order some parts and fix his machine :'( .. one day I might get this done !! .
