Anyone with a 02-08 G w. OEM Alcantara Headliner Help Me Out

Fellas, My 08 did not come with Alcantara / Suede, Im going to add it and I can get wholesale from the dealer but I need a VIN # to order it. Pre 08 because in the rear section of 2000-2008 we have 2 pin light style reading lights and 09 up came with one in the center dome lamp. Ive looked on ebay and such but can not find a VIN. Can anyone help me out?

Aftermarket headliner, windshield pillar trim, and sunroof is about $600 to wrap aftermarket and 500 for labor taking on and off the liner. Ive been quoted roughly $2100 for OEM with the backing cardboard but that was with an 09 VIN # from my neighbors truck.

Seeking anyone who bought the truck off the lot pre 09 or with the in lighting in rear section with Alcantara.

I appreciate your help in advance .

ps - OR suggest me the most highly recommended upholstery guy in Nor Cal
because the two people I went to didn't give me the confidence.
