Wicked build thread mate.

Looking at buying a GTI at the moment.

Your thread has just inspired me to look harder.

Got a bit of an update !

Customised my GTI steering wheel to operate as a MFSW, due to my highline dash needing the MFSW to work correctly.

So:.
Removed the plastic covers to find the foam that needs cutting away...


Weapon of choice !


Didn't last long, went back to using stanley.






MFSW Buttons




The scews to hold the buttons in place. P/N#N 909 680 01


Ch Controller required:


Thanks to the help of Eddie-NL keeping me right with the codeing...  :happy2:

 MFSW  :driver:








Now figure out what to have on display using the Polar unit, it's a cool option to have.
 :nerd: 8)

What do you other Polar users have on display???  :popcornsoda:
If it's not broke, Mod it.....

Congrats on the job well done! :congrats:

I wouldn't be able to do it myself. :notworthy:

At the moment I have 5 active screens on my Polar FIS. On the 1st one I have these parameters:
1-Boost pressure (actual)
2-Exhaust temperature
3-Boost pressure (specified)
4-Intake temperature
5-Oil temperature
6-Engine temperature

Love what you've done to your GTI! :happy2:

Cheers matey !  :drinking:  It was much easier just to use a sharpe blade, plus the small discs to cut broke a few times, wasn't worth the injuries that could have been casued  :confused:  tiny bits of cutting disc flying about place...  *** Safety goggles save eyes ! *** 

I'm just happy it all worked out.  This was more a test to get my highline working...I do like the look of the ED35 steering wheel...  :innocent:

Thanks mate !  :happy2:  You wouldn't or couldn't ???  Once i cut the first bit, that's when i said, Ahh there's no going back now, at the point of no return!  :signLOL: Once the first side was done, the second was much easier to do.

On the Polar, They look like a good selection of options to view, think i need to have time spent playing around with it... Not to sure how to add extra screens yet, also how come i only have 5 options to view on screen ???
One big one and 4 below it.

If it's not broke, Mod it.....

I wouldn't be able to finish the job... :laugh: Need more skills. :ashamed:

You can set 10 different screens, I think, and how many parameters you see in each screen. It's all customizable. :happy2:

Just spend some time getting to know the different options available. It's not too hard to figure out after a while. :smiley:

Yeap, but if you set it from 0-60 it will count as soon as you make the last click. Better to set it from 1-60 to be easier on the hand pedal coordination. :laugh:

 :signLOL: Will do mate, cheers, i also noticed it's possible to add a title in, think someone had R-tech on a highline screen, Mine has "DK ED30 +" !
 I'll have a search for some reading to help me along the way.
