Greg, Be careful. The backer is pretty fragile (brittle). When I took mine out of my jetta I put the front seats all the way forward and the seat backs tilted forward. I then got it out one of the back doors. It was in sorry shape, cracked and corners broken, so I was not overly careful. I would like to hear if someone has a better way of getting it in/out of a jetta.
I just picked up a black headliner from a guy parting a jetta out. It is replacing the stock gray one. I got all the black trim pieces with it sunroof cover, sun visors, and sunroof trim. I did not get the plugs that hold up the middle form the guy. I hope the dealer can get them and the sunroof crank, the other piece I am missing. I think the black will look better than the stock gray one. I need to still install it so if some else has a better way of getting one in a jetta please let me know.
