Maybe it is mate - too scared to try it myself!!!
-
The button turns the sensors off inside the car, for example if you left the dog in the car you can lock it without the alarm going off if you press the button :happy2:
-
As for your rear Cupholder, unfortunately you will need to be the whole rear part (except the plastic cover that you see when Cupholder in closed position - it clips on to the main Cupholder part), part number is 1K0 862 532

Cheers man! Nah going to keep em for when I come to sell it as I'll take the air with me.
So I picked up my car yesterday from the guys at plush. I'm more than impressed with the quality and service I received. Definitely recommend them to anyone thinking of going down the air install route.
Here's some pics

It turns the alarm sensor off inside the car, for if your locking a dog in or being towed etc
It will be standard on ones that have an alarm yes, the GTi has 2 buttons there, one for if the car gets lifted/towed
Air install looks awesome, really sets off the black on black!
-
One thing that's always bothered me is that one rear is a few mil further in the arch than the other side. I'm told it's a common problem with mk5s?
Was wondering if I use a 3mm spacer will I need longer bolts?
Also I don't suppose anybody has a spare passenger wing?
-
Did they notch it as well? Sometimes it's down to the notch not being done properly
Looks great btw :happy2:
-
I was going to ask if you have had to chassis notch it?
-
Black on black looks awesome
-
Yea it's been notched, they did a real neat job. It was the same on coils anyway came like it from the factory.
Just going to order a 3mm spacer to sort it
-
FOR SALE
-
I go back and forth on doing my Monza's black, not Monza's I know but looks really good.
Howcome youre selling? GTI?
