That would be them.  Good luck.  Mine was a battle most of the way.  Stripped out the lower hinge bolt.  Had to cut the pins out.

Hey Y'all, just got my headliner back from the reupholster shop. Question, is it worth applying sound deadening to the roof. lot of surface area. If I do, should it be the whole area,   or just a section in the middle area?

Most definitely worth it on the ceiling!

Depends what you use and what you want to accomplish but I covered about 50% of the roof with good results.

I have some dynomat for the floor, but its thicker and didn't want to cut the cab short for the roof. so I picked up 4 cu.ft from local car audio place. should cover most and I hope better than nothing that was there before. Just really glad to salvage the headliner. Guy at the upholstery shop had seen worse. Going in on Friday. Sucker is hot with no AC and no liner in there.

the roof isn't rocket science so don't get too crazy.  just a big chunk in the middle knocks out most all the echo-y reverberations. :L: 

hmm, yeah that is what I was hoping for. I know it won't be a Beamer as far as wind noise, but looking for reassurance. After this weeks heat wave maybe a bit less heat.

I used Noico on my roof and floor and was very happy with the results.

 

I used Noico 80mil also, and have been very happy with the results too. I was having my headliner redone and had the shop put in the Noico on the roof. This was before I did the floors, doors, back wall and up in the C pillars. That said, even just after having the roof done I could notice a difference. No, you're not going to fall asleep going down the highway at 70mph because it's whisper quiet, but from where it was to where it is now has been like night and day.
