obviously you know about as much about a VW as I do about Civics (other than that a lawnmower has more Torque :P ). I dare you to look under the headliner and tell me there isn't insulation under there, I dare ya I can show you the remains of the headliner insulation that is (was) permanently glued at the factory to the inside of the metal roof
