Faz's Black GTI SOLD - Now a Shadow Blue GTI! Stage 1 complete
shoaybmakda:
@fazi123 you got the MDI fitted in the end? Did you DIY?
Good job on your gear gaiter I need to do that to mine. Was it hard to do?
fazi123:
@shoaybmakda I ended up getting it fitted :ashamed: - the chap had to take apart the Armrest and all sorts to get the wire up for the dock.
The gaiter was VERY easy to do. You just have to be very careful when you separate the actual leather gaiter from the plastic/aluminium trim as the plastic trim (holding the leather gaiter to the surround) could snap. It took no longer then 30 mins though to be honest. If you can fit the MDI yourself - you'll have no issues ;)
shoaybmakda:
@fazi123 ah I didn't know the leather could be detached - I thought it was all one thing. So I'm guessing it's detach the leather, gaitor gets separated and then you can wrap etc?

@shoaybmakda almost... once you've detached the leather you them disconnect the connector which powers the lighting on the gear selector. Then you can take the surround out of the car. Then before wrapping it you should separate the aluminium trim from the plastic surround. Then a quick clean and your ready for the wrap! :)
Give me a shout if you need any more details. It's really easy!

So I've been having difficulties with a wet passenger footwell. Not sure how longs its been an issue but I've only noticed it recently.
I've booked it in to a garage on Saturday to get it looked at - should hopefully have some positive new then :)
