I have an LTD one here too, just not sure about the chrome bezel... maybe I should make a hybrid of the 2?

I did consider it, but I'm hopeless at cutting straight

I did consider it, but I'm hopeless at cutting straight yeah i had to be very careful when trimming the headlining .... there is a 'little' cutting/trimming of the headlining but as long as you don't get carried away you will be fine. the headlining i'm currently using also has extra 'holes' cut for the smaller interior lights. two at the front & two at the rear passenger doors. will eventually get around to fitting terri interior lights & sunglass holder. also have the FG versions as well  edit - i made it easier for myself & had a roof upended so i could actually see how it all fits.  thinking of doing the same with a EB Longroof

I don't have the space or the patience for that... in theory though - roof should be the same for all BA / BF, yeah? So since I need the headlining reglued anyway, if I get a BF LTD headlining, lights, and overhead holder it should all be a straight swap?

Speaking of - is that a factory dash mat? I was looking at getting one for mine, but the Falcon, Fairlane and LTD use the same part numbers for the aftermarket, whereas yours has the clock section
