Title: Privicy glass
Post by: Zig star 2003 on May 02, 2018, 08:19:11 am

Hi
I have an edition 30 and was thinking of changing the rear hatch glass and rear windows to privicy glass as i noticed that some Edition 30's already have it fitted.
Just wanted to know if this is a costly job and how hard it would be to change the glass myself

Pain in the ass. You need to remove the spoiler to get the glass out.

I bought a set of custom fit car shades for my GTI and used them on other cars I have owed.

Great fit and give a similar effect.............https://www.carshades.co.uk/

Sounds like a lot of hassle
Pity as it looks good on a silver edition 30 that i saw some time ago

Wouldn't it be easier to fit window tints?

yep why not just have them tinted, that’s what I did with mine
