headliner removal?

[JCunningham]

Anyone drop the headliner. Putting a NMO antenna mount in. No info on the 2500/3500HD removal. I dont need to remove it just need to drop the rear. Any info on doing it would help. thanks

When i installed my NMO Antenna - Removed third bake light , see how close your headliner is . Drill slow fish cable thru hole reach thru third break light . grab cable and fish it down the rear cab piller . NO need to drop headliner

you were able to do it on the 20+ 2500HD/3500HD with rear spoiler? I have to go up. the mini uhf connector for the radio is already on the coax.

maybe try you tube,  but most headliners I have seen simply pull down,  get something behind it and carefully start prying

You could also check any mobile 2-way radio shop .

Didnt have to drop it. its actually easy. just removed the top panels on the pillars. the rear has a bungee cord and  7mm screw. then the cloths hook is 10mm.  pulled down for enough to get your arm in there. I used a Laird nmo hole saw.
