To glue the headliner, you first need to remove it from inside the cabin by taking off the plastic covers from the pillars. Once the headliner is extracted, completely peel off the old fabric covering before installing the new one. While also removing the foam part, scrape away all the old glue so that new glue can be applied.

After the new glue has been properly spread, place the new foam and fabric on top of it, so the headliner can be reattached inside the cabin.
