I posted it in the other thread, use code THANKS10 for 10% off, also potential cashback through Quidco or TCB (if you use it).

Quick trip to see Alex at AKS tuning to change my Cam follower as I could not do it myself being a 2005 Gti.

Good news old follower showed little wear and camshaft looked ok considering car has done 68k.

Possibly been replaced before but I have pretty good service history which would suggest not.

Happy Days :happy2:

I think megs do a headlight restoration kit that requires a drill. Could always have a look at that.
:

This tiny kit really does a fine job;

kit looks good, was going to place an order but you must spend a minimum $100 for international postage
its all in the small print  :confused:

why not buy this, i just have for £8.33  :signLOL:

Just ordered that kit, even though I don’t really need it…thanks Steve :happy2:

Mine looked the same when i change it at 58,000 miles. Don't seem to wear too much on the early ones. Still always worth a check though.

Got my Goodyear F1v2s fitted... much much quieter, and they seem to grip well even though they are not srcubbed yet.

New BBS VZ's on and looking ever so shiny in their Hyper Silver. Then it was off to a local bodyshop to sort out my FUBAR'd side skirt!   :fighting: :sad1:
