Big Blue - 54 Plate MKV 2.0 TDI 16V
« on: April 16, 2017, 09:58:29 pm »
Builders thread and personal log for the mods, upgrades and refurb work I'll be doing to the car I picked up at the weekend.

I'll be taking pic's shortly of the issues with the car, but firstly here's a quick list of what immediately springs to mind;

In no particular order....
Floor mats - Missing attaching screws
Find - decent TDI blue/grey floormats
Cruise control upgrade
Replace - Headlight switch
Replace - All internal window switches
Replace - Boot Logo
Replace - Interior door handle trims
Replace - Headunit for DAB/MP3
Remove - Tow bar
Replace - Back Bumper (due to big hole for towbar)
Remap ECU
Refurbish - Alloys
Upgrade - headlights
Figure out what that plastic thing is that's fallen in the hole to the right of the drivers seat!

If your talking about a hole on the pillar between the doors it is for a alarm and anti tow switch
