just ordered mine.  over £50 but under £51. Can't remember the exact amount.

The guy at the sales desk says he has never sold one before.  :surprised:

Awesome are also selling them for the same price, but with delivery on top!

Cheers guys. Will have to add that to the list of things to order.

Anybody have VW fit them? Any issues there to be aware of?

Thanks

VW labour charge will be over the top! Find a local indie and it should be just half an hour's labour.

Give it a good firm tug! 
Mate don't ask. I've yanked the bloody thing hard enough to pull my fingers off my hands and it still refuses to come off.


I thought I had to lift the engine cover off to get to the DV, otherwise it'd be a bit tricky?

The GTI isn't just a machine. It's very much a living, breathing thing.

Lol I had to practically kneel in the engine bay whilst pulling at the cover. Helps if you know where the mounts are tho so you don't snap it!

When you get it off put a dab of silicone grease on the dowels it will make it easier to get off next time.

about £45 from memory.

Now that is a good price!! I would be worried if I were Forge Motorsport, IMHO.

How much would a garage charge to fit this on an Edition 30? ( VW and INDY) I guess it'll be alot easier than std gti?

I'd attempt it myself, but i managed to break the number plate bulb holders by just looking at them!
