Got it from Ebay - a breakers I think. Cost me £80 delivered.
It was missing 2 bits - the handbrake slide cover and the cd changer!
Cover bought from VW for £11, IPOD dock to fill cd changer hole supplied very kindly by Very Cherry for free!
Fitted the whole lot myself in about 30 mins - its really straight forward and simple.
Didnt bother with the ducting - looked to be a pig of a job! There isnt often anyone in the back of the car so it wasnt worth the hassle!

if i got a mk5 without an armrest, think this would be the option. breakers and get the armrest in. the rear vents would be nice, but then most cars don't have rear vents and are ok. main thing for armrest is comfort of left arm ;-)
but yeah good plan, get an ipod dock/ connector in there too

Wouldn't worry about the rear vents, almost no air comes out of mine?? Anyone else find the same or are mine faulty??

ive bought the ipod dock for mine, so i'll do a how to on fitting the arm rest as i need to strip it all out to run the cable to the headunit.
