Correct position of VW badge for alloy wheels.
« on: December 13, 2013, 01:37:10 pm »
Really anal but VW do actually  have a correct position for it. The lower edge of the W is to be set in line with the tyre valve.

Alex always puts my locking bolt opposite the tyre valve.

The GTI isn't just a machine. It's very much a living, breathing thing.

You need VW caps that are self levelling, a la Rolls Royce. Thems is uber cool if not a wee bit pricey.  :laugh:
