Mine are cracked and dry rotted and I can't find replacement gutters anywhere, any tips? Thinking of going to a few scrapyards this week to see if I can pull off some better ones.
Duncan Bullen unfortunately they are extremely hard to find. The cheapest and easiest way to get them would be the Junkyard. Look in vwvwortex and ebay. Possibly someone parting one out near you too.
I was able to remove them starting from the back roof side pulling with just my fingers and working towards the front, just need to get the front loose
Phillologist Mine actually didnt come with them but I have read a light pass over with a heat gun might work to loosen the adhesive. if not, you might be able to use fishing line. Look up "debadge car with fishing line" same concept
doin it kinda wrong , way too much contact to the car with the tools. First loosen the lower side off rubber , start in door opening by pushing it away from the car. You can do that with only your hands , when the lower part is out the lower rail just click the back end loose and wiggle it a bit and it will pop out all the way and you dont need to use those tools at all.
Nice one dude! This is something i will need to do on mine soon so this is greatly appreciated

Is that rubber same length as mk2 jetta?
Do you have a good source to get some new ones? Thanks
Its my understanding these are no longer available so your best bet would be a junkyard

baklap141 it was my first time doing it and there were lots of stories claiming they break and distort easy, was just trying to avoid that. 👍
Helpful! But lose the music 😬 At least lower while talking. The song is fine, the volume is not...
Where can i find These Tools ?
Fabian Gaisbauer Amazon - Plastic Trim Removal Tools. Or at a Harbor Freight/AutoZone/Orileys
