I love what you did to your Touran! A lot of work involved but it certainly paid off. :congrats:

The Helios are my favourite wheel for the Golf mk5 but they're too big and too heavy, though. Not for my kind of driving. :laugh:

What are your future plans? I can't think of much else to do. :drool:

Well the bits have started to trickle through

Short shift



Some headlights



And bought this last night



Also fitted the shifter last night with the washer mod, i only wanted to reduce forward and backward throw a little without making it notchy as the touran lever seemed a little longer throw than the golf but it feels much better now

I love the feel that the 42 DD bushes give to my gear stick while shifting. Much more precise! I now feel what is happening with the gearbox. :wink:

Couple more bits arrived yesterday

Superpro camber adjusting ball joints and 2011 touran vents



So naturally fitted the vents right away





Oh and this is happening
