Title: At last - I have my Red Ed30
Post by: WhiteHartMart on August 20, 2009, 08:31:41 pm: Picked it up today - love it already - have fitted my rear privacy blinds now and really impressed with them. Just waiting for my RNS510 to arrive and that will be it for a while. More mods will follow though I'm sure :grin:

Excuse the state of the garden and garage door - builders have been in for last 3 months building an extension to the house! oH and the pictures are very rushed so could be better I know :grin:

Just a quick question though - there are no mats in my car - where's the best place to get them??

Post by: Oli on August 20, 2009, 08:36:03 pm: Very nice, are the rear windows dark from just the blinds?

And the ED30 is standard with red trimmed mats :happy2: So someone has nicked them!

There's a pic in my other thread without the blinds for comparison

So someone has kept the mats by the looks of it - pretty useless unless they have another Golf I suppose - they had the bottle opener also ..... just as well I kept mine from my previous Golf :grin:

Ta for the ebay link James - will keep an eye on that. :smiley:

Post by: Oli on August 20, 2009, 09:38:27 pm: Still cant tell = Has it got factory tints?
Title: Re: At last - I have my Red Ed30
Post by: WhiteHartMart on August 20, 2009, 09:46:48 pm: Might sound stupid ..... but I'm not sure tbh. The dealer spouted on about 'heat reflecting glass' or something so not sure if thats what he was referring to.

Now I look back at my photos the backs do look darker???

Will have a proper look tomorrow now and report back :smiley:

Post by: Greeners on August 20, 2009, 10:04:46 pm: Check the fittings on the floor of the car as the one's on E-Bay have the older style so wouldn't fit mine. :happy2:

Thanks for that mate - noticed my floor pegs are round (I guess that's the newer version?)

Managed to find another set of used mates with the correct fitting - drivers one is a little 'heal worn' but I'd soon get it like that anyway. They'll do for now :happy2:

Oh and Deako - couldn't get any further away form the car without falling into a pile of masonry/concrete etc - damn untidy these builders :grin:

Will be giving the wheels a clean and seal today - will drive the car to a location to show off a bit of the Cornish scenery for the next shots (and yes the whole car will make these) :happy2:

Post by: WhiteHartMart on August 21, 2009, 09:18:26 pm: Put my RNS510 in today - cracking bit of kit.

Can't believe how much better it sounds than the RCD300 too!
