    WA Hail damaged repair.

    Hi all! I got hail damaged on my Mk5 TDi. It so bad the beaters are replacing most of the panels including the roof. What I want to know is, is it safe remove the roof and fit a new one? Won't it affect the structure etc... can someone enlighten me...

        Have a look at this thread ( http://www.vwwatercooled.org.au/show...ve-hail-damage ). It's very long, but I think it was in here that some-one was talking about the roof on MkV & VI Golfs being laser welded, and the technology to properly repair being unavailable in Aus.
