Garth's GTI build thread

New updates:
I didn't like the black badge on the front, so I sprayed it grey to match the paintwork and I'm much happier with it now :smiley:
I also have got to work with my soldering iron to replace all the orange led's in the instruments which look really naff in my opinion. I have so far replaced all of the orange led's with red in the buttons and have only the fan speed indicator to finish. I'm going to do this blue to match the dials, but need the perfect blue led's to match everything. I now need a standard stereo to rip apart for the led's :grin: My fiance's mk4 stereo was butchered for the red ones but the correct size I need are the ones that illuminate the screen in the mk5 stereos. Progress so far:
:P

Crikey that's alot of weights :confused:
looking good on the car though, I like the colour change on the interior lights, I've been tempted with going white :happy2:

That's what I thought :confused:
It doesn't bother me though as the tyres are not staying on for long. I'll be getting a new set of F1's or Pilot Sport's in the new year. I'm presuming it's the tyres that need all the weights and not the wheels themselves, but either way as long as they're balanced I'm happy :wink:
I was thinking of white too for the led's but I want everything in the car to match perfectly, hence the red.
Andy:
it will be the tyres thing they are called sunnys that are causing all the weights to get it balanced right

Yep, Sunew's best tyres :grin: Quality at it's best! They were only ever meant to be a temporary solution
