I have worked in the auto industry for decades. After I left for military, I no longer worked for dealers, but part time worked at stereo shop. We have done this on many cars. But your kit seems way better than the stuff our customers had us use. I am not so much into the looks stuff with cars, maybe some carbon trim and outside spoilers etc.. But for how much you spent on materials, the cost is low for this feature. You did a good job buddy! I wouldn't do this to my cars, I make them fast, and I make them all performance oriented. But for show car folks this is pretty cool. Did you know that Rolls Royce charges $12,000 for this feature in their cars? I thought you'd appreciate that... Good work, I bet the wife and kiddos love it.

Just got finished installing this in my 2016 Sonata and this video helped me out a ton, so thanks a bunch! I bought pretty much everything on your tool list. The gorilla glue worked like a charm, and the trim removal replacement kit came in handy for a few retainer clips that I broke while removing the pillars. I ran into the same issue of not being able to get my headliner out of the car so I also had to work inside, incredibly tedious work! I ended up routing the cable up the B pillar like you considered doing, as in my car you are unable to reach the trunk from anywhere in the passenger compartment. I'll add a bit of advice for anyone that may be watching this video - DON'T buy the light kit with multiple sizes! Especially if you have a light colored roof like my own (tan). The largest of the strands left pretty noticeable holes in my headliner, much larger than I anticipated. It looks pretty awful during the day, though at night you can't tell the difference. I'm considering going back in and wrapping my headliner in black like others have done and then pushing the strands through the new fabric - we'll see
@ReynaldoVelasquez5 жыл бұрын
JayyDoodle awesome! I’m glad i was able to help out a bit. I wish I had a second camera guy just for recording. Did you get to document your process? Upload a video I would love to check it out. I got all the same size strands because it came with MORE. And one of my buddies told me with the twinkle effect, some will naturally look bigger and brighter than the others. So for me there really was no need to go bigger. But that’s a great tip, thanks for sharing about the hole sizes. How long would you say it took you to complete with breaks included? Make sure to give us an update.

@chadjay8283 жыл бұрын
No you should be good they are highly durable and the only thing with the hot glue gun as you cannot touch the metal tip of the hot glue gun onto the fiber optic or then it will mess it up but as far as The normal every day heat from outside will not affect the fiber optics I noticed in the video he said it was 100° outside and his Starlite system was still working without a problem not just that but at night the temperature should drop so it should not affect the starlight system

SportsDomination hey dude, lol I meant to press reply and accidentally removed your reply. But let me see if I can remember your questions: 1) will your headliner fit the projector (light engine) on my video I show how I ran the fiber optics into the trunk and store the light engine in the trunk. I did this because of its large size and also because if the light engine ever goes out you can buy a new one a small swap it out without having to drop the entire headliner again. There are others who have purchased a cheaper $30-$60 smaller light engine and packed it into the headliner but those are cheap and don’t twinkle. And some have gone out... probably due to defects, and guess what... now they need to drop the entire headliner again. What a pain. 2) how does it have power? The light engine box came with two plugs that power it. An AC adapter for a wall outlet and a lighter plug for a car. I just used the car lighter plug and ran it between the split foldable rear seats into the backseat car lighter. It powers the lights when I turn on my car.

Rez C maybe get an automatic self dimming mirror installed. If I look in my mirror I can still see the lights and I also have dark tint in the rear window. But also try dimming your lights

Are those fiber optic strands resistant to the sun’s heat??? Are you gonna have a hard time removing it, should the fabric ever deteriorate, and start draping over your head??? If one does this to their vehicle, it’s good to think about long term repercussions of this projects.

Honestly you can do anything you want as long as you put your mind to it as long as you stay focused and take your time I really think you can’t do it without having any experience look all the people that post their videos on KZfaq about the starlight headliner system it was their first time also but they put their mind to it and got it done so go ahead and give it a try good luck sorry it was supposed to say I really think you can do it👍

@ReynaldoVelasquez4 жыл бұрын
Matt Miller you should look up some videos on doing wiring. I suppose you could, but obviously look at what other videos say to do. Possibly use a relay and definitely insert a fuse between the battery and the the light engine. But yes I’m sure it would work. I’m not an electrical genius though. Haha so look up wiring led under glow kits etc on KZfaq to get the correct advice. And when you do it... make sure to share it with us too
@chadjay8283 жыл бұрын
@@ReynaldoVelasquez you beat me to the punch I was going to say the same exact thing but whatever he does he needs to put in an in-line fuse just in case of overheat protection it’ll pop the fuse instead of starting a fire but besides that yes you can run it off the battery in the trunk that is what I’m going to be doing with my Chevy S 10 I have to add a secondary battery because I have an airbag system neon lights for under the truck sound system and this summer we are going to be installing the starlight headliner system but in my case I have to run with a bigger alternator so it can charge both batteries but honestly you made one bad ass video it’s so easy to learn from how easily you made it for everyone else to understand it I just love the way you broke everything down and explained it now I’m just waiting to find the second video you did on wiring it all up thanks for a bad ass DIY VIDEO !!!

Shasta Shannon hey! Yeah, that’s the wonderful thing about this project! You can literally do this on a car, with or without a sunroof, truck, SUV! The only thing that may change is the way youll remove your personal headliner. But yeah! I dig it, you should totally do it!

Does this make it obvious to people outside of you car that you have that installed? I guess in trying to say is it obvious to cops😂
@ReynaldoVelasquez4 жыл бұрын
Skyelar Brennan I answer that question in my FAQ section towards the end. Details are in the description. But no it’s not obvious at all. No one will see it unless their car is lower than your car. They would need to be low enough to be able to look up at your ceiling. Plus the roofs of cars are usually Concaved so it’s even harder to see. If you turn the brightness all the way up or even mid range, people may be able to see your face changing colors or shining and then dimming as the stars twinkle. But that’s about it. And it’s harder to tell if you have window tint. Cops don’t care at all. I’ve turned the lights on and stood outside... nobody will know you have them, it’s like a surprise when they step into your car.

Headliners that have the hard foam backing are put in at the factory before the windshield is installed. Many things like the dash and even certain types of back seats that are bulky because of mechanical electric reclining features are often sent through the windshield opening and are impossible to remove without taking out the windshield or breaking them to get them out. That's why installation of certain custom items like this is so expensive, they have to do intensive things like removing the windshield.
