R32 Air Vents... do yours Illuminate?

[ranton-inc]

As above i know the R32 style vents are of similar if not the same design to a bora.. however.. do they illuminate like the bora..

Mine dont...

do yours?

[dubbed]

Bora vents illuminate? Dammit I wish the Golfs got these cool gizmos too.

[ranton-inc]

yeha they get electric seats too

[andy_gti]

what do you mean exactly by illuminate?

i'm guessing the dials that control direction etc.,

is that what illuminates?

[gareth_oau]

illuminating air vents? god how can humanity ever survive without these????

Just another dumb gimmick to spend more maintenance dollars on

No they don't illuminate. I've seen quite a few R32s now and apparently it's only the Bora that does. In regards to electric seats I don't thing it matters for us R boys anyway as the Konigs are too chunky anyway. Which would you rather have?

Some of the R32's came with the LED's in the vents though they weren't wired in, it's easy enough to do if yours are there. Graeme checked his ages ago and he didn't have them, I have never bothered to check.

Do a search on Vortex R32 forum there is a how to on there with pictures but you'll have to search the archives as it was a few years ago.
