Fitted LED number plate lights from DamoP.  Wasn't too difficult, even for me.  Did get a dash warning light, but it turned out I hadn't clipped the cable in properly.  Looks good now!

And re-stuck my front pressed plate - trying Harris number plate this time.

Tidied up my calipers and had new tyres fitted.

The 225/35/19 Michelin supersports look a bit wider than the 225/35/19 conti sport 5p
 
Hope they don't rub :-/

I order the same one a few months back, had no problems and very easy to install. Thumbs up to the seller.

Went to the local VW shop and watched my Tech replace an intake cam and hpfp on a GLI, due to cam follower failure, for a personal learning and observation session. I mostly wanted to get a good look at the PCV and EVAP duct and route through the valve cover itself.

I can honestly say i miss these. Naturally they can be retrofitted to the Mk6 but i just can't find any at a decent price :(

My mate was stripping a Touran and had it left over, nice freebie for me.

I am off now to put the caron the ramp to take off the B12 kit, Eibach RARB and S3 brakes. Will be a shadow of himself afterwards.

Changed from Goodyear Eagle F1 Assy 2's to Michelin PSS on the front to give them a try and they're fantastic. Will be putting some on the rear very soon.

I changed from eagle f1s to pilot sport 3s and noticed a difference, so super sports should be even better!

Just gone from Dunlop Sportmaxx RT's to Eagle F1 Asy 2. I find they are miles better and quieter. Only experienced slippery dry/damp roads so far today
