Headliner issues 2005 convertible

I have issues concerning the attachment of the two side corners of the headliner; it seems as if it should be attached by a feeble piece of elasticated cord that frays, together with some plastic fittings that seem to have a habit of breaking. It seems to be a common problem? Latest check at my VW garage looks as if two new kits are needed (one each side) at a cost of about £30 plus VAT. Can anyone advise about how these are fitted.please?. Regards, Mik

Worth trying to sell as a project car

I also posted this in a different forum but didn’t get any responses so I don’t know if maybe I posted in the wrong one? I’m currently trying to sell my 2002 new beetle, hoping that someone will restore it. It was my first car and I would hate to see her sold for scrap. My main question is, am I wasting my time trying to find someone who’s going to love the car as much as I have?
