Starlight headliner
Fiber pulled through the roof lining, one strand at a time. Five to nine hundred points depending on the roof, sized so the front and back rows read the same.
Peoria, Arizona
Your ceiling,
full of stars
Fiber-optic starlight headliners, ambient interior lighting and underglow. Panels come down, every strand gets hidden, and the whole thing runs off your phone.
What we install
Three ways to light a car
Ambient interior
Doors, footwells, dash and console — a clean line, not a row of dots. One color across every zone, or a different one per zone if that's your thing.
Underglow & exterior
Rockers, wheel wells and grille, sealed to survive a monsoon. Runs a flat color, a fade, or the full spectrum end to end.
Process
How an install runs
-
Step 01
Send the car and the idea
Year, make, model, and roughly how busy you want the ceiling. A photo of the interior helps. You get a price back, not a range.
-
Step 02
Book the slot
A deposit holds the day. Most starlight jobs are a full day, bigger builds run two — you'll know which one yours is up front.
-
Step 03
Drop the car off while we do our thing
Leave it with us in Peoria in the morning. Headliner out, trim off, fiber pulled and routed, engine mounted somewhere dry and reachable — then everything goes back on factory clips.
-
Step 04
Pick the car up once we are finished
Before you drive off we set your scenes together — daily color, show color, brightness at night — so it's dialed in by the time you leave.
The work
Cars we've lit up
Shot in the shop, lights on, no editing. This is what it looks like at night.
More builds go up daily on @vivid.autocustoms
FAQ
Before you book
Does pulling the headliner wreck it?
No — it's designed to come out. The board unclips, the fiber gets pulled through from the back, and the strands sit flush with the fabric. Once it's back in, you can't tell it was out until the lights are on.
Is underglow actually legal in Arizona?
Partly. Arizona restricts lights that show red or blue toward the front of the vehicle, and anything flashing or rotating — that's reserved for emergency vehicles. So the build gets set up with a street scene that stays inside that, and your reds and blues live on a separate scene you run at shows and meets. Worth confirming for your own setup before you drive it.
Will it drain my battery?
Not if it's wired right. Power gets tapped to a switched source, so the whole system dies with the ignition instead of sitting live overnight off an always-on circuit.
How long is the car with you?
Most starlight headliners are a single day. Add a second row, ambient zones or underglow and it's usually two. You'll know which before you book.
Can you match a color I already have?
Yes. The engines are RGBW, so we can land on your factory ambient color, your wrap, or whatever you're chasing — and save it as the default scene.
What if a strand goes out later?
Bring it back. Fiber doesn't burn out the way an LED does, so a dead point is almost always the engine or a connection, and both are quick to sort.
