Well, I didn't want to unpack the whole thing before sending it back, but here is the pic that I sent them... The label on the outside said "Perforated", so I knew not to go to the trouble of unpacking the entire headliner, since it was going back anyway.

This kit won't look anything like an original Suburban headliner. This installs with bows like most 60's-70's cars. Read the description in their ad
https://www.ecklerstrucks.com/chevy-...1960-1966.html

It would probably look fine but not like the original. I haven't seen anyone that makes a perforated vinyl with the backing like the original.

If I ever get to the headliner on my suburban I will buy perforated vinyl and glue it to a thin closed cell foam.

Re: Ecklers trucks headliner kit

Update: Well so far I STILL do not have the correct headliner! They are drop shipped from the manufacturer, and I have received 2 incorrect ones so far. Still working with Ecklers to get the right one. I'll keep you posted...

Re: Ecklers trucks headliner kit

I didn't even see the hole/no hole option. I hope this works out for you, I'll be happy to order a $250 kit and not have to figure out how to make something.

Re: Ecklers trucks headliner kit

Update: STILL waiting for the correct headliner! Supposedly their part numbers were screwed up, which messed up the ordering from the vendor. Finally one of Eckler's tech support guys got involved... I should be receiving "something" in another week or so. We'll see, I'll keep you informed...
