Need help: VW Badges!
« on: February 14, 2009, 03:28:37 pm »
Hey Guys, with thanks to every one who arranged for the Carbon Fibre badges, I now have a Sweet pair of Carbon Fibre Badges! Although there is a problem I have the front and rear badge but have no idea how to change them. Any help would be appreciated! :)

This is what i was sent:

Front Badge:



Rear badge:



Boot handle (for some reason):



Thanks!

–   Separate connector -7- from release element -1-.
–   Remove bolts -2-.
–   Loosen release element contrary to the -arrow- from the retaining brackets -6-
–   Then remove release element -1-.

quick question mate,

did you buy the same gti front badge as everyone else or was your badge especially for the gt/r32?

i bought a gti grill for my gtsport and tried fitting the gt/r32 badge and it was much bigger and didnt fit  :confused:

in other words the gti badge is smaller than your r32 one, just letting you know before you got to the hassle of fitting  :happy2:

O...k, did not expect this to happen! I tried changing the front badge this weekend when realised it fit in the space but I could not twist it into place! Top Cat, i am going to ring the TT Shop, see what they say and then I will send you a p.m if thats alright? Will keep you guys posted!  :happy2:
