I did the ceiling on an enclosed trailer---Not a F River but another brand--Before I put up the paneling I ran all of my wiring for ceiling lites etc and then got foam bord insulation and glued it on with liquid nails, this will keep your ceiling much cooler. We then fastened the panels with SELF DRILLING screws to the roof cross studs/bars- much easier and quicker way of fastening them----for a nicer finished look we used the clear/white joining?? strips like they use on wall paneling between the 2 panels so you do not have any exposed gaps where two panels meet. Take your time and it will come out nice--measure 2-3 times BEFORE you do any cutting of holes etc so you don't waste any material and it cuts down on the number of mistakes/boo boos as you are installing the panels---good luck on your project---Comp
