What did you and your MKV do today?

[MC71]

Dissasembled both my R8 Oil cap and 911 Coolant cap and realigned them. IIRC the Audi one took minutes......the Porsche one on the other hand needed loads of modding to get facing the right direction, PITA.

That bay looks good. I've modded my cover to work with the intake system. But I've just priced up a TT cover today. Quite cheap.

Is R32 calipers worth doing on the fronts?

[Jcarroll]

tried cleaning out the rear badge mechanism on my GT as its stopped closing. Didn't work...

Upgraded all interior bulbs to white LED including the Glove compartment and footwell  Looks so much better....need to invest in some number plate lights now 

Also...treated myself to a 8" Sub and Amp with the standard system

@MC71 did you take pics when modding it? as i seen some how-to but look kinda confusing

^^^^ That will look awesome. I paid £80 for the 2 dash trim pieces. Am sending off a load more pieces to be done now! 

For those that've asked. Here's a pic of mine. Needs rebuilding and fitting but looks the nuts IMO.......

How difficult is it to get that trim piece out? Is there a thread explaining how to remove it as the missus wants it doing in carbon! I can see this being a never ending project!!

Fitted a non resonated cat back and changed all interior lights to LED's

Drove it for the first time in about 2 weeks... brakes had pretty much seized up completely, it wouldn't move in Reverse (DSG)

it's kinda easy! just search on google or on this forum for "golf mk5 how to remove rcd510/rns510" etc and you will see when they take both of the plastic pieces out!

Mine did exactly the same the other week.......rears were totally seized after only one weekend. Took some real effort getting them to move again.

DS2500 rears.
