Boot lid badge.
« on: June 22, 2011, 01:27:43 pm »
I've done a search but not found a definitive answer. I've got a 2005 model, now the badge has gone the way of the white worm and I'm wanting a replacement, the only ones I can find on the web are those that I believe are designed for the later models, plus they are all black and I just want the origonal. Is there anywhere anyone knows of where I can get one other than a main dealer (howmuch are they)??? And can you just get the badge or do you need to get the full unit.
Laser Blue 3dr No 209683, Leather, Monza II's and a few other goodies...........GONE but not forgotten......now in an A4 S-Line Avant 170tdi......god I miss the Gti.

The flat ones are prone to whiteworming. Get a later version - should fit fine and no white worm but the VW and the circle are separate and distinct from the backing.

The GTI isn't just a machine. It's very much a living, breathing thing.
