Today on Workshop Quick Takes (wqt): Every passenger vehicle cabin is built to be a temporary living space. Whether basic or luxurious, the starting point of any modern vehicle includes sound reduction materials, carpeting and seats. Over time, these can become worn out or soiled. Unlike a living room set, these cannot just be swapped out on a whim. What does that mean for your older vehicle?
Join us in our 2000 Jeep Cherokee XJ as we demonstrate how to disassemble a vehicle interior, deep clean, apply fresh sound treatment, re-carpet, and replace the seats -- all using basic tools and materials that you, too, can work with in your free time!
