MK6 5dr Glossy B Pillar Trims
« on: May 12, 2011, 07:22:47 pm »
Hey Folks...

On my walk into work this morning i noticed a mk6 golf, with glossy B pillar trims (like i've highlighted in the pic!)

Knowing that my mk5 has a kind of satin black trim, i'd kinda be interested in upgrading to the glossy ones, cause i think they look better, and blend more into the surrounding glass...

Could anyone help me with a part number? or indeed, how easy they would be to fit?

heres the pic:

I'm presuming you don't have a gti or r32 as all the mk5 versions have glossy pillars, only the standard models have satin versions.  Just order the mk5 versions, they are apparently easy to replace :happy2:

Sorry to jump in but does anyone know how they are replaced as one of mine has a small dent in that really winds me up! I'm hoping they just clip on! Wonder how much they are.  :laugh:

There was a thread which had pics etc. Apparently you have to bend a bit of rubber and there are some screws.

They are just under £60 for all four. I will put pics up later of mine. They look a lot better and took about an hour to change all four
