Do the pillar mounted ones interfere with the airbags?

Cream? Need a pic of this!  :popcornsoda:

Why not paint it? As for boost gauges, look at Defi or Newsouth. Out of the 2, I'd go with the Defi one but it does cost more, quite a lot more.

Defi review....

I know someone who has a 54-plate Mk5 GTI with 'cream' leather uphosltery. It was a factory option in the early days. His is Laser Blue. The 'cream' looks more 'light tan' or 'biscuit beige'.

....Yep, that's the geezer. He's got a tow-bar fitted as well - Strange on a GTI, in my opinion. When I last spoke with him he wasn't impressed by Heritage(?) taking over Loders.

Reminds me of my old V6 4Motion which was Indigo blue pearlescent with cream leather.

we had a choice of either the cream or anthrite grey--choose the grey as the cream leather would need cleaning every day due to my job
