Well, had a busy day ordering bits off ebay, In no rush for them to turn up as long as they do turn up!

So far ive ordered:
Front centre cupholder with shutter and bottleopener (Genuine)
Electric window seitches, petrol flap release switch, mirror switch and headlight switch off a passat (Chrome trim on them, Genuine)
Upper steering wheel trims in aluminium to match interior
Seat wrench insert trims with Golf logo on them
Climatronic bezels in aluminium
Door warning lights front and rear (Genuine).

All coming from hong kong so should be here mid january!

Also fitted my engine undertray, Team HEKO wind deflectors, LED interior lights, front and rear mudflaps, lockwood door sill covers and had the rear windows tinted with a 40% tint at the weekend. Will get some pictures when I get the chance.
How hard can it be?

The wheels finally sold! Just trying to decide on new ones now, Thinking of something a little different, But still VAG themed.

Fitted all the Passat switches, centre cupholder with shutter and seat inserts today. Also fitted the door warning lights. Just need to have them turned on now.

Headlight switch


Passenger door


Drivers door, all the switches have been changed bar the door locking one


Centre cupholder with shutter


Door inserts.


Next on the to do list is to get the Jetta front bumper repaired and painted, Fit it and also paint the Vortex rear spoiler I have and fit that. Then lower it 35mm then fit the new wheels.

Another parcel turned up today, So fitted them.

New GTI pedal set and a footrest plate off ebay.


Also had the lights coded in that I fitted to the doors yesterday.


Also why he was coding in the lights I asked him to turn on a few other options. Now have the anti hijack (locks the car when it reaches 15km/h), rain closing on the windows, Boot pop, selective door unlocking (Unlocks the drivers door with one press, then unlocks the rest with anohter) also the extra wipe a few seconds after its washed the windows.

Will get some daylight pics of the Team Heko wind deflectors and window tints when I get the chance, Just realised I never mentioned i did them just before christmas!

Love this so far, usually dislike moredoors. Just out of interest, where'd you get the wind deflectors from? I've been searching for some for ages... Cheers.

Thanks, Dying to get new wheels next and get all the bits i have here fitted, Just missing a bumper moulding now as i have lost the ones i got  :rolleye:

They don't, they go up with no trouble at all, I didn't bother with the metal clips that came with the kit, Just used more double sided tape around the edge then put them in the seals.

Had the day off and put together the Jetta front bumper.





Got a lot of tidying up to do on it. Got a crack to repair on the left hand side, and a scuff on the lower splitter. Also need to find a way of sorting all the chrome out as its pitted and has lifted in some places :( Was thinking of using some of the chrome vynil to sort it out but wandering if there is anything I can buy or even do to sort it out?
