Folks,
Anh had to re-subscribe to this list and asked me to post the following message for him. It's obvious that he uses his money for the RV10 and not a high pixel camera! 
Also, I included some photos myself. The first is a seat cushion from a hangar buddy of Anh's that is going in an RV6. It is beautifully done and Anh will have to tell you where it was made 'cause I forgot! The last 3 shots are the ones that Anh took.

I used 1/4" headliner from www.perfectfit.com that Tim Olson didn't have too much luck with. Same stuff Randy Debaw used except that his was 1/8". The fabric comes with the foam already stuck to it. I just sprayed the backside with 3M 90 (high temp) adhesive and stuck it on.
The material is 60" wide - not wide enough to install it length wise. So I installed it width wise in two sections. The fwd section covers from the windscreen to the aft edge of the door where that natural step is on the canopy top. The aft section covers from there to the end of the baggage area.
I cut the edges 1/4" from where you want them to be leaving room for the molding strips. I used a fresh razor blade and scissors sometimes.
I made molding strips out of the same material. Cut strips about 1 1/4" wide. Fold it over with 1/4" overlap. Sew straight down the middle of the strip, over the overlaping area, the entire length of the strip. The cross section of the molding strips look like a figure 8. The straighter your stitches are the better the molding strips will turn out. I threw away a few practice strips. Cut off the excess material at the overlap area.
I brushed on adhesive material from www.Airtexinteriors.com and place the molding strips over the edges. one-half of it (the figure eight) goes around the edge against the fiberglass top where you had left 1/4" open when you trimmed it. The other half goes on the headliner edge itself to cover the cut.
Hope this helps,
Anh
