took a 4hr drive to see Chris and get the alpine ine s900r fitted today--when Chris removed my old header unit (alpine 320 with sat nav & ipod interface) he was shocked to see how a top Company that was in sunderland had wired up and botched the install..Chris reconnect the wires and installed the new unit..the bonus bit was the buttons on my mk6 steering wheel works now as well...its a excellent bit of kit now i have got the hang of it---i went for this unit over the rns10 because i am running to amps and a sub in the boot--also averaged 56mpg so all in all a good day for me

I love it Andy. Looks perfect mate.
Far more mods than I thought! :notworthy:
I love the footwell lighting. :wink:
Is the Hazard Warning switch easy to fit? I got mine delivered the other day.
I'm really wanting a couple of interior lighting mods myself.
I want another Boot light on the passenger side, and also I'd like the footwell lighting to stay on at night. :laugh:

I have to say that your car is lovely and that it is one of the best cars on the forum, IMHO. :congrats:
Usually most of the non GTI owner go for the GTI look. I find it great and an inspiration to other non GTI owners that you kept the OEM front bumper but improved it by a great deal by adding the Votex spoiler. With the other mods (wheels, brakes, etc) I think your car is quite complete.
Again I think the car looks AWESOME and I would like to congratulate you on the progress so far! :notworthy:
The more I look on other member's ride the more I find really great builds such as yours. This is one of the reasons I like this forum so much :smiley:

it's screwed onto the battery cover mate

How did you split the engine cover to spray that yellow mate?
If you turn the cover over there is some clips you take of and it should separate

The xenon lights are on the next job list to do,going to put the side skirts on but with it been lowered not sure if it will go on my ramp at workMaybe you can measure the clearance you have in the middle of the car to see if the side skirts would clear of not. :confused:
The perfect side skirts for your Golf are from Votex and they're chunkier than the ones from the GTI/R32. :\

It's getting the ramp legs under that is the problem as I have to jack the car up to get the legs under nowI see why you haven't fitted the side skirts yet. :\
They'd look great but you'd have an harder time getting your beautiful Golf on a ramp. :(

Andy I think you need to rip that engine out and slot an S3 engine in. Seriously it looks has nice as mine did. What did the company do to the Fromm bumper?
Hello Daz,did you forget your pass word :signLOL:.would love to put a 3.0 litre turbo in if I could,got sorted with the bumper and got my money back in the end so not to bad really..Wish you was still doing retro fitting as keep thinkin about putting xenon lights on

One thing I found interesting in your thread is the s3 gear selector... did this make a real difference was it worth doing?
Also I find my changes from 1st to 2nd are pretty clunky, it never crunches but it's not smooth like all the other changes. Is this just a common problem that us Mk5 owners have to live with, I would assume the s3 selector wouldn't help with this, as it seems only slower gear changes help.
Cheers, Stu.

A couple of questions if you don't mind - where did you get the wheels refurbished as I live in Newcastle (well South Shields) and will potentially need mine doing, not that I've actually got the car yet but hopefully buying one this week!
And also, the detailing you've had done looks amazing, are they a local firm? One last one. The switches that you got (lights, electric windows etc.) are they the cheap ones on eBay from China or genuine parts?
Thanks, James.

put the r32 ones on your tdi .

Who can photo shop my bbs ck alloys on to the r32Those wheels look awesome in any Golf! But for going over potholes the Omanyts are really strong so you don't really have to fear much when driving with them. Mine are 17'' and have taken a lot with no issues over the last 7 years. :wink:
This is closest pic I could find. Not CK but the shape isn't that much different.
