I don't know about the Gen IV headliners but I can't imagine it's really hard. I did my own, it didn't come out as good as I would have liked but it was because I had never done anything like that before and I used suede which doesn't stretch.

If your using headliner material it should be pretty easy.....just go slow, do sections at a time don't try to do the whole thing at once. and make sure you use a good glue. I used Elmers upholstery glue (white can, orange cap) and it works great

The hardest part will probably be getting the headliner in and out of the truck

whatever glue you use make sure you do a test piece so you know if it will bleed through or anything
