Hi, with the original take of plate I bought it’s designed around the OEM plastic housing.
I’ve since changed and fitted a FSI oil filter housing which is alloy. And tig welded AN fittings on.

Thanks.
Did your take off plate look like this?
The plastic oil filter housing has an coolant outlet, I've drawn on roughly where it would be, that would have run through the original cooler. How did you blank that outlet and the coolant hose that connects to the old cooler?

Yes exactly that.
Umm I can’t quite remember now. I think I put a blanking end cap on the metal pipe just above it.

My mate has done a quick clip of the golf out on the road if you’re interested
I also took advantage of some Black Friday offers and ordered a coolerworx shifter which should be with me next week.
I have also bought new seats…

Wow! Those are some impressive looking seats. They put my wingback to shame & I bet they're crazy lightweight too!
