Title: 2007 GTI new member
Post by: wesrev87 on October 27, 2014, 11:38:28 pm
Hi All,

So I thought it might be time to post in the new members thread, and post some pics of my GTI.

It's a replacement of my previous project "Chitty". To explain the replacement here's a before and after  :signLOL:

Welcome mate, what's the spec on you're GTI? :happy2:

A little too standard at the moment  :signLOL:
Manual GTI with no mods (yet)
Tartan interior
Auto Lights/Wipers
and things that need addressing:
No Cruise Control
No Sat Nav
No Bluetooth
No Armrest
And 17" Monza's

But it's a demo plus one owner, and is pretty tidy. Good base car. And still have the Rockford sound system that I managed to pull out of the Arosa, so that may be going in soon. Although the Breakers did the usual and cut up about £100 worth of wiring :sad1:

Spec doesn't really matter mate as you can retro fit so much to a MK5. :drinking:

That's the plan  :happy2: Just need to work out what order I'm going to do things in.

Welcome mate! I'm currently going through the retrofit stage, had the same problem as you trying to work out which order!
