Default One thing leads to another...

I just had my mustang in an upholstery shop to have a new headliner cut and put in. They didn't have the color I picked, but I OK them to go ahead and use another that is very close. That was 2 days ago. They told me they wouldn't be able to get around to it until today, which is fine. Throughout the day I'm expecting a phone call saying it's finished, but they didn't end up calling until 4:45, 15 mins before they close. Which is kind of annoying because I live 45 mins away from the shop. Ended up being able to pay over the phone, they left the keys under the mat and it's all good. I get there the cars fine, but the dome light isn't turning on when the door's open, and the radio isn't turning on when the key is in on the "on" position. Is it possible a fuse is bad? I can't imagine why they would monkey with the radio or cut anything to the overhead light. All the dash lights work and the center console controls light up fine. The new headliner looks fine I'm gunna look over everything tomorrow when it's not dark, but the radio and dome light bum me out.

Thanks in advance the help.

you can buy a oem headliner already to do for cheaper than I'm sure you paid to have that done...oh well what's done is done, they could of left the dome light un plugged, when I did mine I had to take mine down, or maybe the working around the light knocked the bulb loose or it's bad. also who did the work, your in my area iirc??

Well I didn't wanna do it cuz I figured I would glue it back, then it would fall apart again. I'd rather it just be done professionally and be finished with it. Plus it was a christmas present so I didn't have to pay for it. It was Paymer & Phillips's upholstery shop in Laurel. If that is what happened with the dome light I still dunno what the deal is with the radio. I just remembered that the glove box light isn't working. It's probably a fuse.
