Default overhead console

are the overhead consoles the same for 2door blazers and 4door blazers? also, does anyone know a place i could buy a headliner, or a good way i could stencil and cut it out of mine?

i was at the wrecking yard and i found various blazers with consoles and was able to combine parts and piece together one that looked .. id give it a 6 out of 10. a bit unkempt interior that it came out of, but it will work.

My problems with it are the 2 clips in the rear that the console screws into, i dont have those, and the trimmed sections. Being that i have a 2 door im struggling with the rarity factor. in a perfect world, i would find a grey interior, 2 door, overhead console, *decent condition* and has the DIC. I got the ambient sensor and the front end was all torn apart so i know where it routes to so i know what to do there.

anyone have ideas for me to improve my odds on finding a used 2 door grey headliner that has already been trimmed originally? or any ideas on how to know where to cut and tips on what to cut with. i dont like doing sloppy work

as far as tool i would try a sharp utility knife applied with finesse.
for cut out i would line up the console and maybe try a chalk line method on the ceiling. that way it wont stain it much. the clips should be at local car parts store...or anything you can make clip on there really
