ordered some more vinyl - still got the original templates so easy to make some more. going to redo the inner ones too as they have a few bubbles and creases. But im on holiday next week so i'll get it done then.

I had the choice of 5 Jetta's at the time - all the same model, at different dealerships with prices from £4000 - £10000.
I didnt buy the £10K one because it was black (too many black cars recently.
I didnt buy a dark blue one (it was listed incorrectly as a manual, but it was a DSG), there was a white one, but it was a 2.0T 200bhp manual & again it was listed as a diesel. I saw this one and instantly fell in love with the colour - even with all its marks, scratchs, broken pieces of trim and random pieces missing.
I've got another front end that i'm getting colour coded instead of chrome - same with the lower trim & the outer sections, i'm getting the grill slats all done in black and i'm picking up a set of std headlights (on wednesday) that i'm going to split and paint the inner sction body coloured also - i'm also going to modify the outer lamps with sidelights and modify where the indicator side so they whole band flashes orange.

Tail light help!!
Ok so i've just received a set of Jap spec rear lights - however they arent LED's!!! They are just std normal bulbs - plugged them all in and fitted them (sorry no pics) and nothing works - just the bulb warning lights come on the dash. only the front headlights / indicators / side repeaters work - HELP! :confused:

I stand corrected on this, but the LED's are wired differently to the halogen bulb units. I know that when the guys in the US change over to Euro LED's, they need to change / add / cut some wiring to get them working.
What do the Jap spec rears look like and why are you going away from LED's? One of the best points of the Jetta imo.
