Headliner in a 51 need advice

I bought the headliner kit from DC most is pretty self explanatory except the back window. How have you guys measured or marked them to cut the panels for the back window larger their instruction don't tell how to do it and I don't want to mess these up.
Thanks Jim

I always think of the old saying "Measure, measure, and measure again.... it's always easier to cut multiple times, it's a lot easier than adding it back on after it's been cut.


I always thought I would remove my rear glass and install the headliner and cut headliner in place to fit... then replace rear window.
