Super quick, subtle Mini mod to save my sanity.....

Always plug in passenger seat belt if no one is in the car cause it knocks and bangs while im driving.

I put a strip of the soft half of velcro on the buckle.....

....then realised why not just use the other half and can stick it to the pillar when not in use :)



....Brilliant! I get irritated by the belt banging around too  :drinking: I've already got some velcro with sticky backing I can use.

You should post this in the How-to's section.

Went to Revo to get stage 1 reflashed and DSG software loaded.  :happy2:

Also picked up some parts for an oil change (oil from VW is really good VFM)

Took a drive over to Richmond to Andy's (Maxitrol) place to get 4 new Hankooks fitted. A bit of a drive but worth it to get it done by somebody who cares about our cars.The drive back home was much quieter and dead smoooooth,,,,, :happy2:
Thanks Andy.

Regards,

John

yes they are audi s line reps 19x8.5 et48 with 235/35/19.

lovely looking wheels just a shame they have a bit of white worm starting on the polished lip and the tyres are too big and rubbing slightly
