How many have been effected by headliner sagging?

The tape holds it in place long enough to tighten the tray back in place which secures everything nicely back.
If you take your time, it took me a few attempts to get it right it looks as good as new.

That sounds like a great fix.....most of not ALL GTi's have this issue. Be great if you could fire out a tutorial as the uptake on this, i think, will be huge!!!!! :congrats:

No sagging just yet on my 05 GTI! Shame as this seems like a common problem. Looks like the only way to fix it would be to have it done again properly. Weird how the earlier ones don't suffer the same consequences?? :thinking:

I'm not sure about that but thanks :grin:
I feel like this issue is much more common on sunroof-less cars? With sunroofs, there are more edges and corners to glue onto for support, plus a gaping hole where material would otherwise be, so nothing to sag :smiley:
