Video tutorial

In this video, two temporary solutions are presented for gluing the roof, or headlining (the fabric part) of the car for just a few pence. The repair done this way is only temporary, and for a permanent solution, removing the headlining fabric is essential.

However, as an emergency solution, we can adopt the two strategies shown in the video. The first involves re-gluing the headlining using metal pins, inserting them 15 cm apart.

The second, which is definitely more durable, involves self-tapping screws instead of pins.
