Reflex Silver GT TDI

swebster94:
So in June I bought myself a MK5 GT TDI and have been following this forum ever since. Seeing as I've never posted on the forum I thought now might be a good time to start a thread for my car.
It's a 2005 GT TDI with Mfd2 satnav, climatronic, heated full leather seats and high line cluster.
This is how she was when I first got it, all standard




Since then I've fitted
-Team Heko wind deflectors
-LED sidelights, number plate lights and interior lights all round
-GTI Monza alloys
-MTEC Super white bulbs

I've also given it a clean, clayed it with a meguiars clay bar kit and polished it up
This is how it stands now:




Over December/Christmas I plan to fit an RNS510 to it to replace the standard mfd2 so I will be needing a new CAN Gateway at the same time.
Other plans I have for the car
- Retrofit OEM Xenons
- Fit GT front bumper
- Retrofit TPMS
- Boot pop mod
- Retrofit Bluetooth to RNS510
- Retrofit Underseat drawers
- R32/edition 30 rear lights
- Wrap roof black
- Lower it slightly
- Eventually buy some nicer 18" alloys

I need to replace the rear badge as its suffering from the whiteworm, I've seen the 3D effect ones which id like if anyone has the part number for them

Feel free to post any ideas/feedback

Cheers
Sam

Reminds me of how mine used to look before I join this website as well! Nice looking motor mate and look forward to seeing some updates!

I've just been looking through your thread mate. Your cars nice mate, it's pretty much what I'm aiming for with mine :grin:

lewisako:
Yea when I saw what you wanted to do I thought it'll look very similar to mine haha! Good luck though, and keep us updated!

Last weekend she had a good wash, Polish and sealed ready for winter:










So today I picked myself up a bargain through a mate..



I'm not sure if I need to upgrade my can gateway or not to prevent battery drain, im not sure of what revision my can gateway is and I haven't got VCDS to check with.
Not sure if I should just get a gateway just in case so I don't end up with a flat battery? Would have to get a precoded one as I don't have VCDS to program it with, unless anyone around the Stroud/Gloucester area has a lead I can use.
