May want to consider before installling. Its not an air conditioning thing.

Temps during the day will get held inside the cab as the outside temps fall at night, sometimes leaving some considerable condensation. The plastic headliner might not allow air circulation to dry it out. It may take years to cause rustouts but hey. The condensation drips down the sides of the roof into the driprail area which is sandwiched metal. That moisture really gets trapped.

They LOOK great. :2cents:

Very good point. It will only be kept in a garage so that will probably help the night temp issues.

Don't know if this will help or not, but I'll offer it. Here's a link that shows the Highliner in my truck + some discussion regarding it.
