Squeezed a sideboard in to it! OK it was an Ikea one in bits but still impressed by the load carrying ability with the rear seats down (and the passenger seat slid forward) :-)

Today.. order the parts for a covered cup holder!

Rattle in drivers door,main speaker resonating got local Dealership to check and sort it out.
Corkhills of Southport found it needed new lock and main speaker and they replaced both.
Good job done

Tried out my new karcher pressure washer and new snow foam lance. I'm impressed but still trying to get the hang of it getting it nice and thick foam. Mum looked very confused to what I was doing. She thought I was respraying my whole car :lol:

I retrofitted Bluetooth and Cruise Control (and got both working, haha!), and fitted a VWR intake! Grubby hands, bloody knuckles, and only two bolts left over... :D

Regrettably took mine to the JDM vs VAG meet in Birmingham this evening expecting it to be ok. I think it's safe to say I will never be seen there again. The scent of cannabis as I got out the car was the first sign it was a bad idea, and the more people that turned up made it easier for me to decide to shoot off!

Fitted gloss black vinyl to the interior silver trim, decided it looked cheap, and went about doing a proper job. The interior is now trim-less and the parts have been sanded and primed ready for a gloss black coat tonight and laquer tomorrow. Pics to follow :D

Pretty easy if you're not scared of removing interior panels, and have access to VCDS! Where are you based?

I live in the northwest near Liverpool. I have the rcd 510. It does have a bury system fitted but would prefer touch screen controls plus I have a mfs so would be nice to be able to use the buttons for it.

Gave mine a mini detail. Snow foamed , washed dried then went round with tough coat. Gave the tyres a coat of auto finesse satin now the whole car looks dripping wet.

Now before any one laughs this was a accident and not my fault. Slight accident with the snow foam. Unknowing to me For some reason the passenger window didn't close fully on locking the car. So i snow foamed the car to then see the window ever so slightly open :fall: . ( stop laughing !! :) ) I shit myself and opened the door to find the inside door had a few dribbles of snow foam running down. Quickly wiped it up and was all good. Shut the door and double checked the windows was all the way up before I rinsed. Could of been much much worse!! I kid you not my heart sank when I noticed the window down slightly.

Lesson learnt their! Always double check windows before you snowfoam.
