BD's Black 3 Door GTI
bad devotions:
small update on some changes on my car. I ordered an MDI kit just before Christmas and have managed to get round to install it. I found that my car didn't have the slot for the CD player in the arm rest so i had to order one of those. Luckily i tracked one down on eBay :)
old vs new :)
took quite a lot of fiddling as i realised that i couldn't just straight swap as my car has air vents in the rear and the tube feeding it got in the way. So, i have removed this. I would have preferred not to, but i don't sit in the back.
removed tube. This pipe was a little bugger to take out. Can imagine it's a pain to get back in!
all clear for the kit and new armrest now that the pipe has been removed.
mdi kit installed
quick test
I've also ordered some new wheels! hopefully get them tomorrow :driver:

so i got my wheels today. First time i have ever bought wheels and i have to say i am happy with them! My car desperately needs some attention in the cleaning department though! job for tomorrow if the weather is good!
Andy:
lookin spot on mate--glad you got the mdi shelf in--think mine is the other way round,not sure which one is right :signLOL:

Thanks Andy!
Like i've said before, i am not normally a fan of black wheels on black cars, but these just work for some reason. I really need to up my cleaning game though. I try, but am by no means a pro and have lots to learn. Tomorrow needs to be dry! lol
I've switched the MDI kit now so that it sits the same as yours; plug at the back, space at the front :D :driver:

Today i treated myself to a pressure washer and one of those snowfoam lances. Have to say that i am pretty impressed although it does appear to burn through the car wash stuff. Anyway, i wanted to clean the car and take it up the road for a couple of pictures. I didn't go to town on the cleaning aspect and actually, come spring time, i might actually pay someone to detail it. I'd be interested to see what the results are like.
I am super, super happy with the wheels now!
