Seat height adjuster inserts
« on: July 19, 2010, 12:33:51 pm »
Sorry in advance if this topic has been done to death.
Just bought some of these from eBay however don't know how to get the colour showing through the lettering. Did a quick search and a few people have said they've used electrical tape. Is this the best thing to use? As I can't imagine the quality being that good and also don't they fade pretty quick? If anyone has any suggestions it would be greatly appreciated. 

Also just bought some autohaus number plate surrounds, is this an easy Job? Never done any of these things before so bit of a novice. Cheers chaps.

Who did you buy them from?.

Anyway just incase it was me,I used some thin red card.Just enough to cover the lettering leaving plenty of room for some thin dbl sided tape to hold them down with.
I cut mine from the folder developed photographs come in,it was exactly the right shade for me.

Oh...If you bought them from anyone else,..The ignore the above....  :booty:

Hi! To be honest if I knew you did them on here I would have definatly got them through you. However on eBay I searched and it only brought up one for the gti and one for the r32. So I'm guessing they must be from you?! Thanks for your advice anyway.

 I think that's who I got mine from aswell. Like I said when I searched for them it only brought up the ones from these guys. Whats your eBay user id? I'll have a look what you have on offer.
Sorry I didn't get them from you!  :sad1:
