Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before. We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

    Hi,
    Did a stupid thing and used blu-tac on my dash. Had vinyl repairers do their best and result might be fine for someone less uptight than me. Had dash replaced and hoping to take some of the sting out of it. Let me know if any information is needed.
    Here is the link to ebay with photos:

    There's an opportunity for someone to do some Alcantara upholstery. How come you use blu-tac if you don't mind me asking?

      My kids gave me a Chewbacca bobble head that looked really cool on the dash. I tried to be a "Fun Dad" but I had a bad feeling about that blu-tac. Left it for weeks. Anyway, Chewy now sits facing rearward on the parcel shelf.

            Haa, I know. It's not easy being me! I really wanted to look for a media unit that would put my phone/google maps on iPhone, on the display. Was looking at Audiosources but best put the wallet away for a while now

              If you don't mind me asking, what sort of money did it cost for fitting? That looks like it would be a right bastard of a job?!

              If it has an engine or heartbeat it's going to cost you.

                I think they underestimated it. They said half a day and $600. Pleased it was quoted as they spent two days on it.
