I think mine are 35w mate pretty sure that's what I bought but was almost 3 years ago now.

Not too sure on changing the bulbs as mine came with H7R's but should be fairly simple to do I would have thought.

Came home to a box of new engine bay goodies for the car.

Love a parcel

This was all inside

-Forge washer bottle cap
-Forge DV re location kit
-Forge silicone cam cover hose
-ECS carbon fibre engine cover

Thanks to Al @ Awesome GTI

I also noticed people running Forge 007p's are getting free service kits/upgraded pistons sent out, soooo I emailed Kris at Forge and I asked about it as I have a 008p and he said he's sending me out a service kit anyway, FOC. Thanks Kris

Oh and I've also got a black anodised power steering fluid cap cover on its way from the US.

Thanks to Jay @ JCaps for sorting me out

nice box of goodies tom

I've recently bought one of the screen washer covers, they're very good quality

Nice update Tom but here comes the bad news, my ecs engine cover is a piss poor fit, the front screws don't reach the holes. I'm selling mine for a forge one. Dk did tell me before I bought It and I didn't listen. Ps want your seats

Yeah it does seem great quality

Cheers Sam. Appreciate the feedback. I was aware of this but thought I'd take a chance on it and give it a go. Might go and have a quick trial fit in a mo and see how it gets on. I couldn't get hold of a Forge one. Just fancied something smarter than OEM so if it doesn't work out it'll go back and I'll tidy up the oem one a bit.

The seats are epic. You need some, but prepare your wallet first... Good set isn't far from a grand

Plus black forge hose ftw

Eh? What do you mean?

I already bought s3 Recaros so won't be changing, but if I had the cash I would love the same set as yours.
I can make my cover fit better if I make the hole when the oil cap comes out a little bigger, means the cover can slide further towards the front of the car. I hope yours is better than mine. Only issue with the forge version is the green tinge in the carbon. Ecs is black carbon

Fair do's. Doesn't take much to beat the standard seats. Most of our cars on here should have better one's fitted now.

My cover seems to be a better fit Sam. Just did a trial fit. The holes line up with the back clip in place also. Didn't fit the rubber washers then the plastic screws, will give that a go on the weekend if I have time to tinker about then. Looks like it'll be ok though!

 

[sambryant]

That's a far better fit than mine I will get the dremmel out soon

Where did you buy yours from? Too late to send it back I suppose!?

I bought it from a guy on a forum, £50 included the front cover too.
If I spend some time with it it I can get it to fit as it should.
I was thinking of carbon skimming the oem cover, perfect fit that way
