Where are people buying there led side lights and brilliant white number plate bulbs from ? Seen them on eBay for £5-£13 but not sure wether or not they'll be good quality as this price doesn't seem a lot ??

Just a little update, got my Osram nightbreaker unlimiteds, LED number plate ballasts ( not just bulbs ).

Done a bit of reading on various threads and also got some brilliant advise on parts etc from a long term member on the forum to point me in the right direction  :happy2:

so today I started at the basics and I picked up my new revision G DV to get the ball rolling  :laugh:

Few little pics below, waiting on a few parts to come through the post, so I'll be back shortly with a bit of news.



Thanks for reading

I thought the Rev G was cheaper than that... you can get it online for less - seems odd.  Perhaps VW have realised that it's an ongoing problem and hiked the prices. :fighting:

I seen people were paying around the £32-36 mark, with TPS being a stones throw from work I just phoned and collected it on the way home. I'll get it fitted tomorrow before it gets dark  :happy2:

I would say so mate, I spent hours reading threads on here and a lot of people say the rev G is on par or even better than aftermarket types like forge.

I spoke to a guy I here about maintenance/tuning and he said this is best, and on the plus the Car doesn't need to be mapped to install it.

I've got a home built intake to go on so I'll be mapping before Xmas hopefully  :happy2:

Recon you'll change your DV? My next thing is replace the PCV amd cam follower to the newest revisions to be on top of maintenance before issues occur

TPS 06F 145 710 G £37.08

Turbo kicks in @ around 3K and it feels like it pulls a lot harder  :smiley:

I notice it more mainly because my old one had a split in it so sometimes it felt a bit sluggish as it was faulty and wasn't holding boost properly as it should. But now it feels much stronger

Very happy  :happy2:
