Covered, it holds the headliner which fits inside the fuse. Now the headliner comes out as one unit. (Well, two or three pieces, but you get the idea.) The rehab of the upper fuselage plug was an extra expense to me, but hopefully the plug can now be reused to do make more headliners. Give Mark a call (541) 504-0305.

My intention is to use this to make a fiberglass molding that I can cover with headliner material like I plan for the rest of the fuselage inside top. I have tried to "carve" hard Styrofoam into a shape that will fit the door frame, but it's a three-dimensional curve, and I was not able to produce a satisfactory part from solid foam. I then tried to use some "weather sealant" spray foam, after taping over the subject area. This was a TOTAL MESS--spray everywhere except where I wanted it. The foam that actually got near the right location dripped off before it became rigid.
