i take it then that the xb sunvisors are a different material than in the tc, because i checked my car and the headliner, pillars, and sunvisors are all the same fabric material.

I might just have to try this on a small part of fabric...and then do my whole roof!

 

Yes, the xB has really cheesy, cheap vinyl visors.

 

I havent found any other visor that would work in there...the Toy Taco's has the closet thing...but still not spot on.

 

If anyone else is looking to get this stuff for their pillars, visors, handles or headliner... "Automotive Everything" Can hook you up if you're buying 3 or more cans.

tell them "ebay ken" referred you.

(they can also get just about any accessory for the XB... Window guards, bug shields, rims, intakes... etc. I get all my stuff thru them... they rock!)

 

where did you guys get it from? i cant seem to find it anywhere.

 

Get what?

 

I'm going to have to try this out, looks really good. Has anyone tryed to paint the headliner? I'm not really digin the contrast I'll probably wait to get the headliner done. Great mod though.

 

the vinyl dye. i checked city mill, walmart, craft stores... cant find that stuff.

 

Check an autoparts store, Autozone, Pepboys, etc...
It's duplicolor vinyl and fabric. I can get a pic of the can if you need it. It's been a while since I've been on the island, but you should have an autoparts store somewhere...

 

can you get me that pic please?

I just did this with my tc's sunvisors, and it looks great!





I'm done for today, but I plan on doing my whole headliner and all the pillars with this stuff. It looks great and is really really easy to do. It probably took me 45 minutes to do both sunvisors, although it took a whole can of paint.

 

wow, I wonder how many cans it'll take to do the whole headliner!?

 

its wasier and looks better if you just rewrap it

 

here's a source for vinyl dye:

So..what color do you use to dye it?
Charcoal grey, black satin, dark blue satin, gloss jet black????

 

charcoal is the closest color to the dash.

 

Great. then charcoal it is....Im glad I didnt jump the gun and buy all that black...woulda been up spit creek.

 

Just an FYI: you don't want to get anything that says it is a vinyl COATING like this:
http://www.duplicolor.com/products/vinyl.html - WRONG!

You don't want to coat it, you want to DYE it. I used to be able to find the vinyl dye at auto parts stores, but I can't any more. All they have is vinyl COATING. I have been buying VHT from Amazon recently:
http://vhtdye.notlong.com/
and it works great.

To reiterate: you want DYE, not coating. If it doesn't say DYE, it's not the right stuff! Coating can come off, dye won't.

i just got my monitors, and im thinking about puting them in the visors or making a custom "visor" that will stretch the whole way across and house the monitors and some other stuff
