i agree the originals need something, i would prefer something that look like the knobs on the nav unit though

The great thing is that if you don't like them you can easily remove them, and slip them on as a make-shift c*ck ring instead!  :happy2:

I also think they look cheap and nasty.

Did you graduate from Charm school?  :grin: :booty:

No, but i did graduate from Honesty School and with honours from I'm Not Going to Kiss Your Ass for Scene Points School.

 :P

....Funny but I didn't get on with your posting style (sometimes) at first but now I don't take it personally and respect your honesty. I'm similar to you in some respects but I possibly choose my words more diplomatically (sometimes!).

I don't like these rings either but then I don't like any of the silvery bits VW have added to the Mk6.

I think TC is right - They're a bit crude because of their thickness.

:smiley:

I leave the diplomacy to the politicians.  :laugh: I have to be diplomatic every single day in IT support, errr, actually....no i dont. I take great pleasure in telling people that what they want isnt possible.  :signLOL:

I'd like them to be a tad thinner and have the ridged outer to match the stereo controls  :smiley:
+1. Far too chunky to match the styling

I saw the lower ones elsewhere. Was thinking of buying them as they suit the dash much better than the other rings.

The GTI isn't just a machine. It's very much a living, breathing thing.

Where can I get these, and are they plastic?
