How to Replace the Headliner for a Xj8 Jaguar Vanden Plas
by Oliver HillReplace the headliner in a Jaguar if it starts to tear or sag in the center. This is a moderately difficult task that can be performed with common household tools.
Step 1
Unscrew the individual, silver bolts in each corner of the Jaguar headliner with a wrench. Feed, carefully, the loosened Jaguar headliner through one of the back doors within the Jaguar.
Step 2
Wipe the scraps of glue left on the exposed roof of the Jaguar with sandpaper.
Step 3
Spray a thin, but covering, layer of adhesive glue on one side of the new Jaguar headliner. Press the Jaguar headliner on to the roof of the vehicle.
Step 4
Cut all, if any, overlapping headliner material with a pair of scissors. Screw the individual bolts back into their respective corners in the Jaguar Vanden with the wrench.
