Title: Interior door pull
Post by: Mk5 GTian on August 25, 2012, 01:12:17 am

The only scabby bit of interior trim on my car was this. It really looked rubbish with loads of scratches around the rubbery finish, and bits peeling off.

I bought a new one for a tenner from VW, and it has transformed the feel of the car, feels really fresh for an 80k motor.

Amazing how these little things can make all the difference.

Ijust got it from Colbournes VW in Guildford, and they fitted it for me. Apparently really easy to do though. And a cheap VAG part for once!

I fitted drivers and passengers yesterday. Well worth it, passenger side you need to remove the door trim.
Also, it's a slightly different finish, so should not mark as easily.
I also fitted mk6 bold sport silver tipped switches, so has freshened the interior up loads :)

Will do Tom, working away for work to pay for mods. Bought the later style light switch too, all goes well with the mk 6 climate too. Bold sport are cheap, but beware of customs duty and a parcel force £13 handleing fee :(
