I am looking for a headliner for my 1984 (American built) Rabbit. The car is a sunroof but let me know what you have. I would also appreciate it if someone could send me pics of one in a car. I don't think it would have been a bow type but I don't know (car was missing it when I bought it).
I don't know about the Rabbit headliner holds up, but I just pulled the headliner from my 1992 GTI and it was completely toast. The fabric had seperated from the fiberglass type backing and backing had more or less turned to dust. Pretty nasty actually.
I would recommend finding somewhere that makes replacement parts. JC Whitney has one for $115. Not sure what kind of quality it is or how well it would fit.
Its a cardboard backer. Since the Wabbit is so small, go get yourself some stiff cardboard from an appliance store or home warehouse, cut to size, wrap with felt from a fabric store, and install. Total cost $20 or so.
Fixed a few A1s like that and all looked factory.
I think I am going to try to make one this weekend I just figured I would see if someone had one for sale.
$500, comes with a car!

Can you please post a picture of the headliner at the rear section and the rear post. I have no idea how it goes together because the po took it out because the material was coming unglued.
