Title: Headliner Repair Mk2 GTI
Post by: moby dick on 26 September 2010, 07:16: The headliner is shot on my Mk2. The vinyl feels pretty bad. I am planning to drop the headliner and replace the material. I am not suew what material to get to replace the vinyl. Any suggestions warmly welcomed.

Thanks
