How to seal off a slide in wall and keep headliner


Recommended Posts

Have a good idea on how to do this but would like input help pictures etc on how to go about this. 

Thinking cutting wood as big that will fit in between box and sides and roof attaching with screws. Also should this be double thickness or is single layer fine. Then putting some sort of caulk backing or weather stripping in between the wood and the roof and sides  and caulking the seam to seal it up.

At the point of caulking to the headliner it's going to be ruined anyway. What's the goal? Removable with no damage or just a clean and sealed off install?

If you're not chasing tenths I'd just build the trim piece out of 3/4" and wrap it in carpet or whatever material you're matching. We've even used carpet as a padding/flex-fit layer and wrapped the finish material over it (suede or vinyl etc.). Make sure it's a good tight press fit everywhere then mount it to the box. Remember too that once the box is slid into place you can add side mounting points if you have access. Make sure they're removable to slide the box back out.

Static drops are my bag.
