DIY Camper top headliner help?
After staring at the bare cieling of my camper top I haveve come to a road block. Just wanted to see what everyone has used for headliner in a camper top. I wanted to use the same carpeting that i used on the interior and walls but it seems too bulky and a pita to work with. My only thought is to use a staple gun to get it set in place and lined up. Then go back and attatch accordingly, but I am open to any suggestions.

Sorry no help with headliner, I was looking for inspiration my self.

You might check this youtube vid:
It's for a standard car headliner, but it shows how they're "normally" installed and it might give you some ideas. I'll be doing the headliner in my GTRV pop-top van pretty soon, I'll be sure to take lots of pictures.

Not a camper, but my wife decided to glass a bunch of simple paper topographic quadrangle maps to our roof as a headliner.
The roof is fiberglass and we simply used clear resin and applied the maps like wallpaper.
We did have the advantage of being able to remove the top and work upside down. Gravity helped a lot with this project.
