Starlight Headliner Thoughts?

Dominic-Toretto · 10 Feb 2021 at 11:34

Hi everyone,

I have been considering adding some further subtle modifications to my A45 recently, I am happy with the performance so I am looking to enhance the interior ambience with lighting. My car already has the ambient lighting pack, but it is a little bit too understated for my taste. I am considering a starlight headliner, These were originally seen in Rolls Royce, but now I can see many aftermarket companies offering to fit these, for a price of course. Any thoughts?

Example image below:

Exactly my thought before i even opened the thread and saw the OPs name.

You've already wrecked the A45, this isn't going to make it any worse (or better depending on which way you look at it!)

Lol talk about throwing your toys out of the pram

Oh yeah, I think it looks awesome... in the heavily doctored marketing photo.
The reality, however, is that it will look like you got some cheap Christmas tree lights on sale at your local garden centre and, with your eyes shut, stapled them to the inside of your car.

Case in point:

I think you should do it...
You are already single, right? No kids to worry about, or anything?

Your video is not a finished example. It hasn't been snipped to be flush with the headliner.

Are the constellations accurate?

It is an option, extra cost ofc.

Do it... You won't though.
Have you actually done any of the mods from the threads you make concerning this angular shoe box and your journey to turn it into a Max Power Corsa rival?

Some yes some no.

Did you slam it or put one of those stickers a cross the windscreen.

A highly skeptical one.

Skeptical of what exactly? All I stated was that the one in the video is not complete.

Luckily it's only LEDs these days so there isn't much heat or voltage

Fibre optic strands are used from what I have read.

Thanks all for input, I was overwhelmed by the amount of support on here for the starlight headliner. I had these fitted, approximately 500 stars. It is hard to capture on camera, it looks stunning IRL. It is very subtle and adds a great ambience to the cabin. Thanks all

would be good if they could do it on the sunblind as well

not quite my taste but looks ok maybe if i was 20 years younger

They can be done on the sunblinds on some cars

So it's not even the whole thing? Just the bits around the sunroof?

That's fantastic. A bit like people thinking they can hang with the Gucci crowd with just a belt

Lmao
