The look and brightness is soo much better, really happy with them! Without hijacking the thread too much....thought you might want a look.... :happy2:

What was the code as I need some bulbs

Martk19871:
White9, they were from PowerBulbs and the code is BULBINATOR,  if that's ended do a Google and might find another

I do indeed, i have had the lights on a lot lately  :grin:  going to get fog lights as well

Time for an update me thinks. I will admit that I very rarely re read this thread so don't really have a clue what mods I planned at the start. I find my modding to be purely guided by the for sale section of this forum.

I had my eye on these for a while, I've never really been keen on aftermarket tints but wanted the look, I opted for the sonniboy interior screens as these provided tint and came with no adjoining line in the boot section.



The normal before's and after's











For the price these are great give the car a far more aggressive exterior and the kids love them because they have something to mess with in the back, rear cup holders can now breathe a sigh of relief.

A box arrived, love getting car related parcels even though you know what's in them. The missus hates them she knows I'll probably disappear at some point on the weekend and leave oily fingerprints everywhere.



Evoms cai, it was always going to end like this, you new what this was, bloody forum.



Went for the evoms for many reasons, I like the way it looks really un subtle, price and great reviews. I also like that it retains the stock air intake for its feed. It was fairly straight forward to fit, even with the lack of instructions it's fairly self explanatory.

But people I cannot stress enough don't go into fitting the heat shield without the correct socket because you will feel the pain ( as I did) for half an hour they made me there man hor.  :signLOL:

Basically the plastic disintegrated leaving a smaller captive nut and I thought yeah fine get a spanner on it, but it wouldn't come it just wouldn't, no because there s a bloody nut on the other side of it that you can't see without psycic ability s, or 5 minutes of research. Who does that, who?  :signLOL:

Rant over, stock intake removed



Bloody heat shield



And fitted



I really like it makes some great noises but I think they need to be louder either that or I'm going deaf. The plan from here is to get the evoms engine cover and customise it slightly. I also bought some oem Audi r8 coil packs from awesome gti to compliment the evoms bits but I have discovered they are not the genuine Audi ones so will be up for sale and I'll order the others. Also plan to clean this area as well when I get the chance.

I've been busy collecting bits to upgrade my headunit. I decided that I didn't want a sat nav unit so went for the rcd 510 dab.

Genuine polo aerial and base
New gateway for battery drain
