Default Question: Leather on Hothead Headliners

I just installed some HH HH in my 4 door. I have a Mastiff who lives in the back and in an effort to not have hair and slob on my headliner I have had the idea to cover them in perforated leather.

Question: Would the leather affect the performance of the HH HH negatively ?

Hi,
if you were to cover the rear headliner panel in a perforated leather or vinyl it would negatively affect the headliners ability to dissipate heat. That being said, even if the rear most panels wasn't performing as good you probably wouldn't feel it much since it's all the way in the back. If you do decide to put some kind of material over them try to find something light weight. Real leather would be way too heave and very expensive. If you want to run any ideas by me just give me a call.

best regards,

Mark
