Not really sure, but check out the interior/exterior section.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think the headliner will fit through any of the openings as a rigid piece. It needs to bend, or be two pieces. It might fit though a front door opening with the seats removed, but I have never attempted it...

I have seen it done by an srt4 in Ohio when i was visiting my aunt. He stated that he had to take all the seat out of the car and he had to bend in a total of 2 inches. Thats why you use fiber glass lol It will give a little bit. That was Before i bought my neon

Yes you can take the headliner out in one piece, without bending in, with the seats in (if you have vipers they go back further than the neon seats).

The front doors and the center consol have yet to be painted. The green is going away. The color changing paint on the dash tho is staying obviously.

If you don't have a DA sanding and have a clean understanding of body work. I would NOT attempt this. WAY more work than you think. Send it to a shop. You will be much happier. I am a professional bodyman/paint with all the proper tools to do this. Without them you will never get it.

hears mine..... and when I do my pillars I think I have to slightly copy those rears with the speakers... Probably go with something a little smaller and long like a 4x6 speaker.
