yes all the pieces are glued and wrapped except the visors it does not need glue. i have to traced out the old cover and tuck it back in like the original form. it's actually the easiest piece to do than the rest.

I have done this in a single cab s10 but I don't think I could do something like this.

you said you already done one on a s-10 this is no different just little more work that's all. this the first time i ever pulled off a headliner and first time wrapping it. it's pretty easy trust me. i watched bunches of youtube video and write up on cherokee form and that kinda help out a lot.

Yeah me and my friend used some kind of fabric that was supposed to be like something you sit on the ground of your car or trunk almost like carpet but a lot thinner. I think the hardest part in that vehicle was just putting back the sun visors but you are right it would be the same just on a bigger scale and a couple more things to cover.

well got all the pieces back in i am pee off cuz i pick up pioneer speakers from best buy and figure they come with grills but they didn't. looks like im going to have to visit the junk yard and see if i can find factory one for the '96 console. i have the grill that came with my '98. i'll probably paint the grill camo green.

That looks really good and clean. I thought they would come with grills, I think most aftermarket speakers do, you may want to check best buy just to make sure they were not supposed to.

done finally... well sort of lol. i got one more thing i want to wrap, center console arm rest lid. today was actually real good day. found the the factory grill off a '96 xj at the jy. i barter a center console lid lock latch for a chip and key fob from a guy i sold jeep parts to on craigslist. he just install new after market alarm and does not need the key fob was a sweet deal for me. the po of my jeep lost the key fob on mine.




chip/key fob and grills

this the chip i have to replace. the new chip is the top one that's what have to put in to make the key fob function. since mine have chip already i can take to the dealer and have them program it. for how much? i don't know probably a lot. but i don't need to i swapped out and it works flawless.
