Default AU Roof lining

Hey guys

My roof lining is looking a lot worse for wear (Sagging, so on so forth), so I'm thinking of getting a fresh one put it. I was wondering if anyone had a picture of an AU falcon with a black roof lining? I'm thinking of going black to freshen up the interior a bit, but I would like to see it done first.

Also, I'm thinking of replacing the bulbs in the sunglasses holder with whiter LEDs - what sort would I need to go with?

Thanks guys,
Ben.

I have a black roof lining in my ute, looks ridiculously good, particular at night. However I still have the pillar trims in the original tan colour, so i'm looking at dying those black soon. I would recommend it but as always each to his own.

If I find time tomorrow i'll take a photo for you and send it your way.

Yeah that would be good to see a picture.
If you say it looks good I might just go ahead and do it, not sure as to how difficult it would be to make the pillar trims - also would it possibly make the interior too dark to have everything in black?

imo, yes. i hired a V8 Caprice the other week and it had black rooflining, and with the sunroof closed i found it kinda weirdly dark. i didn't care for it.

Here's a few of mine, was at night so it doesn't look as good as it does during the day.

- tried to upload and couldn't figure it out, here's one I now have online.

Sorry, that looks pox.
If the rest was black, then it would suit, but that doesnt look good at all.

like I said earlier, I plan to dye all other trims black when I find the time and effort required.
