Thanks man. Haha I was trying to figure out how to do it the proper way for ages and I gave up.
 
Got it now.

Planning on getting an aftermarket head unit (pioneer avic 8000nex) in the next few weeks....was wondering if it requires any vagcom coding.
I hear a lot of people have battery drain issues afterwards?

Welcome to the forum mate, nice looking car.

Regards the head unit and battery drain, post something in the appropriate forum and someone will get back to you.  Eddie-NL usually comes up with some decent information on this type of thing.   :happy2:

Welcome along. I'm from Ireland aswell. Is your car wrapped white or is that the original colour?

The wrap looks pretty good actually, how much and who did you go to?

Always an idea I've thought on but never followed through...

Tbh it was on the car when I got it,  I was told he got it around Blanchardstown for about €1500, although I can't seem to find the place anywhere on Google.
