Starlight Headliner kits use long narrow fiber optic style cables to transmit LED light from an source hidden in the vehicle. These fiber optic lights are inserted into the top of the vehicle's headliner to create the starry light effect in the car's cabin.

The process starts by disconnecting all dome, map lights and other trim pieces and removing the vehicle's headliner. Hundreds of small holes then need to be drilled or pinned in the top of the headliner mold, to fit the Fiber Optic lights, which are individually carefully placed just above the headliner fabric. These Lights are then attached by adhesive, and then strand together to be run to the location of the Light Source, typically in the trunk, rear seats, or under the vehicle's dash. The process can take many hours, depending on the quantity of lights you're installing.
