Can a single cab headlining fit in a hard top 90?

I know this question has probably been asked previously but I just wanted to know if a single cab 90 headling could fit in a full length tin top 90…at least the front bit that is?
I have seen some pictures and they seem to have different edges on the back but if I am recovering could I just lop the extra bits off?? Any help would be very much appreciated.

Regards Blue

As you say the back part is different in a 90 van to a pick up, in the pick up it curves down like this

as you can see the line below the speakers is where the headlining finishes and is fixed in place above the rear window

Thanks for that mate, well the one I have seen doesn’t look like that so don’t know if it is a cab one now!! Not sure if this is just a normal front piece that can fit in a normal tin back 90??

Any help would be amazing.

The van ones are straight, they fit tight to the roof and where they fix to in the van which allows the back headlining part to slot over/under the front headlining

To me it does look like it will fit as it is different to the one in my pic
