Nothing for this car is lol
The kit I'm looking at is around £300, we will have to wait and see, maybe Santa will bring me something
Expensive enough then! Ha I'm betting on Santa bring me lots of car parts too
Thanks dude
Yeah the clocks come as a complete unit, worth keeping an eye on eBay as they pop up every now and then. Mileage and immobiliser data needs transferring so you'd need someone with the right tools to do it. It's a really nice upgrade though and you get audio and nav info from the RNS on them. Would need to be pre-facelift as the facelift ones use a different system so aren't interchangeable.
Oh yeah that's right I forgot about that. I'd be abit scared about changing the clocks incase anyone thinks I'm lowering the miles on my car (when I come to sell it) I'll keep an eye out on eBay, could be tempted. How much was it to get your mileage ect transferred?
Lucky for me I bought the car with the springs he already fitted.
The springs are £180 on eBay inc free delivery
Yes the tyre size I have is 225 x 40 x 18
Keep up the good work with your mate
Lucky indeed! £180 ain't bad, I can deal with that lol..
Good job same size as mine, cheers for the heads up.. Maybe buy springs with my crimbo money
I like what you've done with the door trim mate, I'm tempted to do mine.
Do they just clip off or are they glued?

Yeah nice touch, they are clipped in but if you use a credit card/trim remover they come off no problem. Hope this helps
Well we're in seeing Seat today because when they serviced the car they didn't secure the under-tray properly, also broke all the clips that holds the engine cover on. Will let yous know how it goes.
Well all sorted, Seat told me that the clips on the Engine cover sometimes break (all 4 though) & they're very sorry that someone just put it back on and didnt say anything. They're also very sorry that they didnt secure the Under tray. Back in on Wednesday to get the clips fitted (Didnt have them in stock) & also get the Undertray fixed.
About time you got the RR up matey. The cars lookin spot on. The gloss black interior handles are a very nice touch and match the R handles. Might do that myself.
Hi mate,
Lovely example of a pre-facelift, quite a few ideas there for me to pinch
Did you purchase the facelift climate control unit from a dealer or was it a used part? How much did it set you back if you don't mind me asking? Quite tempted but mine has heated seats also so would probably be harder to find if it was used.
Cheers,
Dave

Thanks! lol, go ahead
.I found it on ebay and made the guy an offer, he only had the climate control listed but after messaging him found out he had the other bits..
Managed to get everything for £60+P&P absolute steal!
Yeah I think it would be tricky to find one with heated Seats option also, stealer's would be looking like £150 though id imagine, or not far off that.
Hi buddy,
Just been reading through your RR. Looking good, need some alloys on that soon...
My Cupra is lowered on H&R springs, couldn't fault them tbh. think they were £180.
peace![[B)]](/forums/styles/seatcupra/oldforumsmileys/shades.gif "Cool [B)]")
Cheers dude, Yeah some nice chap sold me his old alloys
The H&R springs seem to be the ones to go for, Ill be buying some just after christmas
Small update:
Fitted my LED rear licence plate lights:
Error free ebay jobs, awesome quality.
Only took a couple of mins to fit, looks much better in the metal
