Remove the nob to isolate the battery & prevent drain 

So if I'm going to leave the car standing I take my nob out 

Oh ok... i just cant work out in my head how it works. Good idea tho 

[Tfsi_Mike]

There's some insulation in the main body.  Haven't looked properly but the knob screwing in completes the circuit.

don't you reset the ecu every time you take the power off?

[Tfsi_Mike]

I won't do it that often. It just means I have to put a pin code in to be able to switch maps

[Tfsi_Mike]

Don't think I posted a pic of the gauge I replaced the VDO with;





Big thanks to EddieNL for correcting my wiring so it comes on with my lights

Sending my steering cowling off for flocking today. Should be back in a week.

I found thread on here where you we're looking at getting some Seat alloy centre caps for your TD's, did you ever get any that fit?
I have TD's on my Leon and the centre caps are looking a bit tatty so I was thinking about getting some Seat caps to fit the wheels if there is any.

[Tfsi_Mike]

Dave at sere measured all the available ones and they where all the wrong diameter :(

If you have the VWR 1.2s without the text around the rim, they are designed to fit with oem Vw centre caps and perhaps Seat ones too?

[Kevscupra]

Oh well thanks for the help, mine have the text round the rim so I'll just have to get some new TD centre caps.

[Tfsi_Mike]

I don't like my TD centre caps either.  haven't had them fitted for a while

[Hurdy]

Mk1 Seat Leon centre caps should fit. My TD1.2's fit MKIV VW centre caps, so if the design is the same as the Leon then they should fit......if you follow me. 

[Tfsi_Mike]

Yeah you'd think so. I'm sure Dave gave me all the diameters available & non of them would fit :-(

This is in black mind you, perhaps more are available in silver?

Won't be an issue when you have an R-Tech map Mike
