It is amazing how a problem we all share, can re-activate a quite list.

what he said.... 

Just get all the old crap off.  A little WD-40, some turpentine, a putty 
knife and elbow grease.  I may have gone over board, but I wasn't going to 
do it again!  Make sure you then clean well with soap and rinse the hell out

of it.  Have fun

Nathan, I had this problem, as it was said to me..... 3 words 3M 
double-sided tape. (or is that 4 words?) 
Take the whole strip off and put that tape on the entire plastic strip after

you clean the old junk off. Super easy man.

My specific problem is the back 6 inches on the driver's door... Anyone know

the best way to 
re-attach this? I'm annoyed enough to use some SERIOUS epoxy at this point 
:-) 

Is there any reason not to? Is there anything behind that strip that needs 
accessing at any point? 
Please let me know how you've handled this problem (judging from the number 
of Jettas I have seen 
with that piece missing, most of you know exactly what I'm talking about). 

Thanks!!
