Cars after 56 should all be badged as GT Sport on the front (2.0 TDI on the back I think) and came with the dark headlights and gloss black grille insert as standard.
Mine was the single year that came badged as GT front and back and had the silver lights and body coloured grille.

I think some other options such as cruise control and the convenience pack may have become standard on the GT Sport as well.

The mirror lenses were from goingfast.com via their ebay item. You can either buy through ebay as normal or contact them on there and they will send you a direct buy link at a discounted price (as it saves them on ebay fees), which is what I did :happy2:

Marvellous thanks very much for your help, yes indeed i did have GT sport on the front grille and also 2.0 TDi on the back (with a red 'i') but i have just taken these off and swapped the grille for a GTI one with a blue strip to be a bit different :)

I didn't even get onto waxing it unfortunately,  I was running out of energy doing it the hot sunshine. Going to have to get a proper polisher at some point

You mean the little things I made to do the temporary RNS battery drain fix? Mate, you can have it for free, it's just two pieces of cable with spade connectors on the ends.
PM me your address and I'll send it tomorrow.
