how do you go about fitting the highline dash? Cost?

Nope, all my own work. Got to keep on top of it when you own a black car.
As regards the Highline, Darren (mortygttdi) tried a couple of times to source and fit one and wasted many an hour of his precious time on my car trying to get it to work (for which I still owe him :happy2:). Problem was trying to get hold of a set of clocks for my age of car that would work. In the end I contacted a company called Hazzydayz, who are VAG specialists.
They supplied the brand new (still sealed in the box) cluster, and had the genuine VAG VAS tablet for programming. The whole thing cost quite a bit (about £400) but the stealer wanted more, and didn't even want to do it !. The owner, Gareth Hawkridge was a real nice and knowledgable chap to deal with, and the whole operation went pretty smoothly. Of course these sort of modifications aren't worth the money, but you've got to have it - right ?
Greeners:
Looks spanking chap! :congrats:
Wheels look the biz! :happy2:

Looking very nice, the two tone cabin is growing on me, is it really a GT? Thought they had different front grills.

I prefer the MK5 version as well tbh, looks less fussy

Cheers Greenhouse, appreciate it.

Yeah it's a 2005 GT 2.0 TDi (the 140 version but mapped) pre face lifted model. The later GT's and GT Sports had the GTI style bumpers.
I changed the radiator grill a while back for a Caracteur (sp) one !
