Well the cup holder finally arrived today so I finished work at 5 and got it fitted :) Last mod on the interior unless I decide to change the lights to the white led's I think, cant think of anything to add interior wise  :grin: So I'm going to save some money and look at getting a revo remap depending on the insurance :P

Just emailed Matt so it'll probably be tomorrow morning when I pay him, fingers crossed they come for Monday so I can fit them on my day off. How long does it take to change them all monte?

Well everyone has been painting their hubs recently and mine were realllllly rusted so I thought hey might as well join them :)

After stupidly melting my back light where the bulb holder goes I'm on the hunt for a 30 ED drivers light, so that's another £60 unnecessarily wasted  :rolleye:

The GTI had a service last week and whilst it was in there I got them to enable the fogs as DRL's at 60% output, might need turning down a bit more, not too sure. I know some people don't like it, but I do :P I ordered some 9006 LED's so then it makes it look more DRLish  :rolleye: Arrived today and here's the outcome :D Not as efficient as Red Robins, but it's a hell of a lot cheaper :D Fingers crossed I don't start the old war on DRL's :P




Finished result

They look really nice.  :happy2: My first thought on opening your thread was... It needs darker rear lights  :grin:  :grin:

I'm really thinking about getting the hella rear light clusters.  :drinking: Am i correct in thinking those are the hella ones. They are on autowagens for about £180. After looking at yours the old credit card is about to get a pounding. :scared:

Just ordered a set of decals for the car for when it goes in next week :) Just don't know if i should stick em on the front of the doors or back near the rear wheels? Only just realised I ordered them in white.... Hopefully you can see them on a silver gti... lol

I would have thought the back Jonny, but each to there own.

Some ppl have them on the front doors, if anyone was handy with photoshop, get them tried out before you stick them on!  :happy2:
If it's not broke, Mod it.....



Silver is the way !
