If they're filled with human hair, a few guys might need donations if they plan on making some. w:pw

the headliners you order comes pretty close to size so having enough headliner material left to make two of them probly not...i could have someone sew me two of them out of material and fill them with jute or other material..that is why i was just thinking of using that soft foam and cutting it to the right size or maybe even sewing material around the foam.....

I was just thinking the foam might be too absorbant for back there, if moisture ever got in in would stay for a while and you wouldnt even know it.
