    Sirius/XM "Roady" with original GM truck radio

    Wondering if adding the Sirius/XM "Roady" to an original GM squarebody 2700 truck radio is possible? I had one in one of my S-10s years ago. Worked great. Anyone have experience with the connection and difficulty of doing this? I understand the subscription part.

    Looking for tips to clean my headliner

    Looking at the headliner in my ol' truck, doesn't look too awful. What is the best way to clean this? Looks kinda fragile to go scrubbing on it. I haven't taken it out yet. Sorry, should have added to "Interior" section.
