Fitted some new replacement xenon bulbs - had to remove the headlamp for access but all was good in the end



Just need to upgrade the other non xenon bulbs now  :smiley:

Well as threatened last weekend, I changed out my drivers window regulator this morning which failed last Saturday.  Failed due to lower cable having terminal internal corrosion to the point of jamming.  Gave my Dad a shock  :scared: when he popped round in his R32 to find my GTI stripped of its door skin, crash bar, glass, regulator and motor.  Not a bad job - took a couple of hours but that included cleaning up the door internals and throwing some waxoil about whilst I was in there.  Used a genuine regulator (£95) but figured that (having owned the car over five and half years with no plans to sell) it was worth it as the old one had managed over 9 years and 82k before dying.

Gave it its first wash in four months. I'd forgotten it was black!  :ashamed:

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

Not a mk5, but, dragged this out of a shed where it's been for about 20 years, belongs to a friends dad. The idea is me and some friends will get it up and running (if possible). Needs a lot of work done!

Gave the Golf a quick wash and wax. The paintwork needs correcting in a big way  :sad1:

Removed the globe box mid kit as I never use it. Will be in the for sale section soon if anyone's interested.

Got 2 new Eagle F1s on the front and gave it a good wash.

Spent this weekend, retrofitting an armrest, Euro cup holder, centre ashtray (then changing the ciggy lighter over to a 12v item) and connecting up my bluetooth module and mic....and soothing bleeding knuckles.  :surprised:
