The rubber trim is often a bit delicate and crusty, usually due to sun damage... and the things being 20 years old! I took mine off the roof rails, soaked them in hot water, to make them supple, cleaned them up and then refitted using a bit a washing up liquid as a lubricant to ease the rails back in. Parrott Bros rule! :-)
Thanks For that buddy, really useful information as always 👌🏻 one Tteam one dream
For these rubbers the best is that small rubber care Wurth bottle, the one with the sponge and red cap. Does wonders and my rubber partss are still soft and supple since I've been using it for all these years...
A simple, informative video, thanks
Another simple but effective video with clear instructions and tips nice one Dom 👍🏼😎
Thanks buddy 🤙🏻
Just found this after ordering some Mauritius Blue to respray my shockingly peeled/corroded rails.
Thanks for that, easier than I imagined!
99% of all tt’s are in exactly the same boat haha.
Glad it is of some help to you
I'd be interested in seeing a full headliner and pillar removal video 👍🏻

I was at audi today for a price of them and wooow £240 each £480 for the pair ridiculous price. Very useful video this was.
What’s the chances! Yeah crazy money when really you can use some off any tt and refurbish for a damn site less
@@TheParrottBros lol yes
Hence the name Udi Stealers !
It’s been a long day, I meant AUDI STEALERS, but l guess you got what l meant to say.
@@neilrigden8991 lol yes hhh
Cheers bro. Need to have a go at sanding my bubbling spots down and re-painting them. Wish me luck lol.
Good luck!
Spot on 👌
Great video was always wondering how these come off as need to wrap mine
Thanks buddy 🤙🏻 yeah I always try and do the little strange videos haha
thank you very much, this video was very useful, it’s time to repaint my roof trim
My pleasure. I need to pull the ones off my v6 too as they are starting to lacquer peel 😅
Brilliant video again cheers buddy thinking of doing mine black...... hmmm we will see haha
Thanks man 🤙🏻
Brilliant video
Thanks bud 🤙🏻
Need to paint mine this summer. Lots of corrosion under the paint.
You and me both, the front of mine is peppered with stone chips and corrosion
Can you do a video on how to remove the rear window trim ? I’m searching everywhere to find some help
Could you do an inner door seal remove, replace please? Need to do mine.
I’ve no need at the moment but will look into it for you buddy
Would you have a video of how to remove the ones on the 2001 S3 quattro please.
I don’t I’m afraid, would expect it to be similar to the tt, feel free to drop me
Some pics via email
You're literally going through everything that I need to get sorted on mine! One question for you as it's hard to see from the video - with those rails removed, is the top of the car still weather proofed? I need to take mine off to redo the lacquer, but I'm wondering if I need to get it all done quickly, or if it's going to be ok if it's off the car for a few days and it rains...
Hey buddy, feel free to send me your to do list for video ideas 😂
Yeah still weatherproof, I wouldn’t leave for months but a few days will cause no issues
@@TheParrottBros Hehe! Well, both mirrors need the lacquer redoing, too, so any tips on those would be great! I only found your channel recently, so I'm still catching up - this weekend I'm redoing the lower bumper grilles!
I do have a video for mirror removing I shall put on next week for you 🤙🏻
Show us how to fix the first aid kit flap that keeps popping open 😂
Buy another one that works simples 😂. That or take the spring off the mech so it doesn’t pop up on it’s own 😜
Ps I have one for sale haha
@@TheParrottBros 😂 hadn't thought about taking the spring out lol thanks for the tip 👍
P Bros. Thanks for the videos! How do you remove the black metal trim that goes between the roof and the glass? At start of video you had your right thumb close to it. Thanks!!!
The trim around the glass is riveted on I believe. Personally never had to remove it unfortunately
Follow up, the metal trim around the glass is riveted as mentioned. Remove the rubber door seal, and drill the rivets out, then it can be pulled out 👍
@@luisc853 brill thanks for the follow up
Hi question for you or anyone for that mater, i removed my trims for painting, removed the rubber seals, and what a nightmare trying to get them back on! any tips for doing this? it isnt just a case of sliding back into the groves of the rails , it just dosnt want to play!
Thats something i have heard before unfortunately, you almost need to feed them on at a 90 degree angle as when you push it down from a 90 degree angle it opens up enough to go on easy usually
Have you sprayed yours yourself
is it similar process for a a3 8p?
Thats a good question that i can't answer im afraid, if it has similar fitting at the back then quite likely
The black trim just down that goes around the winds is that removable as mine could do with replacing
The one above the door window? If so yes but it’s riveted in
@@TheParrottBros yer the black trim that goes around windows was hopeing it would just be a clip in
Why is the paint on my roof rails fading but the rest of the paint on my car is perfect?
A couple of reasons they could have faded, they are thick aluminium so in hot weather they will go through more heat cycles, they may have less paint on them as painted off the car, someone has repainted them
What do the buttons do ???
They are for anchor points for roof based accessories
