Hi All

Im Alex from Poole :)

Bought myself an 07 Golf GTI Edition 30 yesterday, so thought it was time to get on a decent forum!

Here she is:

Got plenty of extras such as the DSG, sat nav, privacy glass, parking sensors, highline comp, cruise control, ipod integration, bluetooth....the list goes on and on and theres still more than that!

Cheers!

cheers all!

Ill be sure to get some photos up as soon as I pick her up - needs a good claying, polish and wax thats for sure.

Have been looking into a few little mods - namely a Blaupunkt THB 475 amp, and a Blaupunkt SB310a subwoofer (which came out my polo GTI).

Has anyone got a photo of the empty amp location under the passenger seat?

Ye that'd be helpful mate. Are you still running stock speakers? If so how much difference does it make?

just read your post mate and havent got the pic yet, but just remembered all the amps under the 555 fit under the seat so i think you`ll be ok with yours.
 And the stock speakers sound alot better but are at there limit  :signLOL:
