Sadly, yes. The stock FMIC and HPFP are the only ones keeping me from going proper Stage 2.

I've been delaying this post for a while amidst busy life, work and other commitments. So here it finally goes.
My latest mods include a NEW Mk6 Scirocco DSG MFSW and a Mk6 Golf 200MPH Whiteline Instrument Cluster. Mateyguv hooked me up with Mk6 Golf cluster and helped with the Scirocco face swap. He's a top bloke with great service and comms so highly recommended. I got the MFSW directly from Eddie-NL that he had advertised on the forum here.
Finally on 08 June I planned a trip to Eddie-NL. Was a long haul from South London but I had a break at Aldeburgh so not too bad. Took a while to get the Cluster coded as it showed the wrong door opened (right for left, and left for right)...after much fiddling with the CAN Gateways, Ed managed to get it sorted. But then some airbag MIL error kept coming up in VCDS. Eventually I ended up getting a New Gateway (Fatigued model) and then everything worked fine. Now the cluster even warms me to take a break every 2-3 hrs :wink: Steering wheel of course feels great and I'm glad I can now change audio tracks (and even folders) using just the remote. Certainly makes the 850W+ sound system a lot more convenient :innocent:
I'll let the pics do the talking now...

Few pics while she cooled down at Aldeburgh:
This one is with my mum:
Here's a brief video I recorded for cluster staging and the remote functions
These mods weren't cheap but completely transform the vehicle, as I'm sure most of you would agree. Feels great too and the white display is a treat to look at. I personally like the Engine Oil Temp and Speedo in digital format. Blue illuminated needles are defo nice! :drool:
Since this change, I've driven over 1200 miles for a holiday to the Lake District, Scotland (Inverness) and North Pennines. I'll post some nice pictures/thrills from my trip shortly.
Thoughts/comments welcome as always! :smiley:
