Cheers  :happy2: I think it needs to go a little lower... but the only issue I have right now is that its home is in the middle of speed-bump city and it catches now...  :laugh:

Am on my phone so bit hard to tell-if it catches now it will cause a lot of problems if you do go lower

I really want one of them front bumpers for mine, Makes the front end look miles better. Think I prefer them to the GTI front, They should stay on the GTI only imo.
How easy was it to fit?

I took me a while of searching... then a 200mile round trip once I found one... best thing to do is keep an eye out for the jetta boys who change for a GTI front

Finding a decent GTI front is hard too!  :stupid:

Looking good that! what a difference it makes to the interior though with just a head unit and steering wheel.  Again I really need to change mine as it really dates the car.  Can't justify spending over 200 quid with an airbag though for a flat bottom.

Airbag was a straight swap from old style wheel

That's funny... as the original invoice for the car states it has minus the heated seats as the info on this states the owner didn't want them.. but obviously as it's my car I'm wrong and your right  :stupid:

Mate I went from my old TDI to a GTI and the steering wheel is so much nicer to use and feel. You're constantly using it, it's biggest and nicest upgrade interior wise you can do IMO.

Plus you can use your airbag from the 3 spoke in a GTI.. it's the same.  :smiley:

Wow, did I touch a nerve? Didn't really expect that response, I don't come on here to cause grief.

The reason I said what I said is because winter pack is inclusive of headlight washers. Unless you've swapped the front bumper, you haven't got headlight washers.

Enjoy your day. :popcornsoda:

Electrically heated front seats (standard anyway on the Edition 30)
Heated windscreen washer jets
Headlight washers
Low washer fluid level warning light.
