    black headliner/houndstooth combo

    Looks like it may be very difficult to source an OEM black headliner with a sunroof cut-out. That said, I could likely find a non-sunroof headliner and have it shipped over from Spain, then cut out a hole around the sun roof.

    What do you guys think of getting a section of grey houndstooth to fill in the sun roof section of the headliner, to match my houndstooth interior? Do you think it would look tacky or could it work?

    I think it could definitely work. I've been looking at redoing my entire headliner in black/grey houndstooth.

      I think it maybe too over the top.

              No they haven't yet...did you by any chance make a typo when sending tracking #? I get this message @ fedex.com:
