    Joe... it's different vinyl that you were looking at for yours... this is 'faux leather' vinyl that's on the Passat, as opposed to the 'sticker' vinyl that Jen/Matt/AndyP have on their cars...

    Looks like a simple upholstery spray adhesive they've used and stretched the leather-look vinyl to fit.

    Worth a go on yours though dude. You can 'do-it-yourself' then (with a bit of help)... but I'd be a little nervous about spraying adhesive on to my roof if it were me.
