The VW power window switches are held into a plastic surround. if the  
plastic surround is damaged, it will come off your door panel. When  
popping the switches off the door panel it is easy to damage the  
surround, instead of popping the switch out. Perhaps that is your  
real problem. The surrounds were available at the dealer the last  
time I needed one (2 years ago).
