I made a "special" tool from a dinner fork. I removed the center tine
with a Dremel tool. You're left with a slot wide enough that it fits
around the post of the plugs. Just slide the fork under the head of
the fastener, and gently pry upwards. The curve in the fork allows you
to pop out the fasteners easily.

When I was removing my old headliner 2 out of the four gray plugs

have to find them in a salvage yard does anyone have a suggestion
on how to remove these easily?
Also do any of you all have suggestions on how to install my new
headliner? They are so fragile. I have already reinforced parts
of the backer with a heavy packing tape.
Thanks,

Why not paint them with some matt black spray paint.
That should solve the problem.

Subject: [a2-16v-list] Black Headliner
Hi all,
I pick up a black headliner last fall to replace the sagging gray
one in my 91 jetta. I need to get the plugs that hold up the
center and the sunroof crank that I am also missing. What years
did the jetta come with a black headliner.
Thanks,
Jesse
