Lovely mk2, some really trick mods

 

[jake]

the tailgates all lined up and fitted now, stuck my spoiler on to so its all taped up

i got to use a £200 a tub wax today, 80% carnuba wax, and well what a pile of pants, ive never used such a hard wax to remove, in the end i had to coat it with my hd wax to remove the stuff, so lesson learnt, stick to what you know.

heres a beading pic anyway

also my car came with uprated aftermarket speakers, i though it sounded pretty poor tbh, then saw a thread about cutting the adaptor wires, so i did this and its still crap, then when messing about with the fader i noticed the rears sounded better, quick change round of door speakers and its back to quality listening now yeah...

This looks lovely nice work done.

Are the rear lights a direct swap??

Thanks

Fitted the footwell led lights today. Really easy to do and pretty cool too

Next job was to sort tbs winter wheels out for the tyres which came today.

I thought to myself, with winter being so mucky what colour can I get away with not cleaning n just leaving for a while. I'm sure you'll agree this is perfect for hiding the dirt.

Interested to see how you wired up you good well lights? Did you just wire it to interior light?

just ran a fuse tap to igg live and then did it that way, so there always on, im tempted to get another genlabs relay though so that they dim with the headlights

Well just ordered my Drl lights as per the ebay link you gave me 8 to 15 working!!! days for delivery ( mite get them by crimbo ) and have just ordered my Genlabs Drll2 thingy....

So once all the stuff arrives i'll hand that little electric job to my dad...I must say your car is giving me lots of ideas please stop....ha ha...

 

[jake]

The lights did take some time, but it's better than £20 a pair lol

Don't forget the fuse tap, there is a spare location in the fuse box in the car. And it's ign live too

 

[jake]

Did a couple things today. Firstly I took the exhaust off and then Re fitted the original minus the centre box. Tbh it's pretty quiet now but I may decat it for noise.

I've took pics of the horror that was done when it was made I'll stick them up in a bit.

Secondly my boot pop parts came in, the scirroco bumpers and the Davis struts but the struts must of changed as there about 5" short.
