A DIY Account on How to Replace the Headliner of Your Car
When one has hardly any clue about how to go about fixing their car, you can hardly expect them to know how to replace the headliner of the car either. Having said that, one can actually do the latter themselves as long as they have a clear picture of what they are doing. It is basically the fabric part that is attached to the roof of your car.
