I've got a guide hosted on some of my personal web host, and I fitted mine myself I will tell you what i found best.

I struggled to see how people fitted these easier without fitting the rear vents, I tried to do this and followed the guide and still couldn't get it too fit. In the end I followed the full guide took all the centre console off (not fully out just loose so i could fiddle around underneath it. This was was so much easier then trying to force the thing in.

I then fitted one in my mates, no guide and air vents like mine, took me 40-60 minutes, not the quickest time but that's fully functioning. Just got for it all out it's so much easier then trying to push and pull things into place.

Betty02 thanks for your post - i cant seem to get your link to load up is it working ?
I had the guide saved in my favourites, but when i tried to access it i realised i did not actually save it properly so it does not work , if you can repost this guide I would be most gateful

also do you know if i need to order the 6 screws(clips) from vw or can i use ones from the old one?
