Title: Does this ED 30 have a highline?
Post by: Resonance on November 07, 2010, 05:50:58 pm: Hello Guys and Girls

Im hoping somebody could help me with my request.

I trying to find out if this ED 30 has the highline computer in it, here are the pictures, It has no extra controls on the wiper stalks, but it does have a MFSW.

Also in the first photo you can see the armrest extended out, is that a extra or standard on the ED 30?

What is a highline?

Highline is the term used to decribe which type of computer the car has.

There are two different types of onboard computer for the golf MK5 Midline and Highline, the highline one being the better option.

The Highline display is full height, rather than "half height" with warning lights at the top.

The one below is NOT highline:-

With highline you can change some of the comfort settings such as auto locking.

It is only a single screen in the dash, its just the screen can be half height or full height if when you open the door you get a little picture of a car then its highline, if you get an illuminated symbol then its mid line simples... that is definitely a highline if the pic you have posted is correct.
