I've posted 9 photos of the bare Interior framing of my 26' GMC. Photos were taken to help with my replacing the Headliner. I've annotated the photos as to the beginning point for the tape measure in the photo. Sorry the tape measure is upside down in all photos, but easier to deal with the smaller numbers.

Now why didn't I think of stowing club pins in the headliner material? :-)
My headliner is similar except that it's actually Ozite Indoor-Outdoor
carpet (cheaper than hull liner/headliner from the family furniture store).
You do nice work. Glad to see someone else is not ashamed of exposed
screws. Makes life lots easier and is more "honest" than trying to hide
every fastener.

I'm Using Komatex, similar to Sintra. It is a German expanded foam product, used in the sign industry. It is water proof. It is flameproof, once the open flame is removed from the material, my experiments show that it is self-extinguishing. Because it is a European made product, it comes in Metric sizes; 2m X 3m, and 2m X 4m. Shop that I bought it from did not tell me that it was over-sized, or I would not have let them cut it down to 4' X 8'. At least, I grabbed the cut-off pieces.
Product is available in several thickness, and 12 basic colors. I used white. If you want different colors, you have to purchase a shipment of 200 pieces. This would make for a very expensive project. Since I only purchased 5 sheets of 2m X 4m, the cost was $55 a sheet. If you buy 200 sheets, it is only $21 a sheet. Heck of a mark-up.
Should be finished by International.
