The first attempt at trimming the headliner was a fail  :sad1:.

Not enough stretch to get it tucked in where the a pillars are.




What adhesive are you using dazza?

Is the spray not good enough?
I ask because I'd rather have all info before I tackle this

Not been on here in a while. The retrim of the headliner is holding up well considering the car is never parked in the garage these days. But all the door card trim has now failed. Any tips for doing this? I did search  :ashamed:

As the golf is the wifes daily  :sick: I dont work on it as much as i used to.

But all of the doorcards failed.

I've now re-trimmed them with the material i had left over from doing the headliner.

The wife mentioned a knock while braking.

I'm wondering why you are not upgrading it to leather card doors as it will match the seats.

BTW I'm from Tarragona haha
