I have just waxed it for now, should be sufficient for  the summer, was fine on the Polo, will probably get some nano glass sealant at some point though.  I was worried about removing the wiper arm, as on the polo it was stuck fast...but I just loosened the nut, popped on my ball joint splitter and it came off really easily

Every time I see one of these glass dewipered mods it makes me want to do mine more and more. Where'd you get the glass blank/grommet from?
Oh and car looks nice by the way. Nice mods.  :happy2:

So the power steering symbol didnt go...turns out my ABS pump was screwed, along with some wiring.  So the car spent 2 weeks in the garage and cost lots of pennies...but its fixed now.

Did an epic 5 hr round trip to pick up a fully smoothed GTI front bumper...bump strips and splitter smoothed in.  Needs a bit of tlc before fitting though, so in no hurry to get this fitted.

I will just leave this here
