Title: Black roof lining in MK5's?
Post by: Vick N on April 11, 2010, 10:09:48 pm
Hi guys,

Could you tell me which mk5's came with the black roof lining? I have it in my mk5 but have seen other mk5's (Tdi models mainly) with the light grey one?

Do people ever consider upgrading to the black setup as I did this with my old mk4 and fitted a mk4 anni interior setup which looked better.  :smiley:

Cheers

Vick  :drinking:

Reserved for the higher models, GTI's and R32s. Although I've seen one or two early R32s with cream headlining.

Hi Darren, yes the roof lining I have spare is for a 3 door but I have heard it can fit a 5 door with some tweaking! got all grab handles, a and C pillars.

Maybe worth putting in the classifieds?  :confused:

The Golf V originally came with light grey headlining. The GTI was set to come with the grey headlining as well but as it was a pet project of Piech they were able to get black (anthracite really) headlining past the beancounters (who said it would be too expensive for a low-volume halo vehicle). The R32 used the same black headlining.

R32s and GTIs with cream leather came with cream roof lining.
