      Which switch are you talking about? One of my window switches in the driver's door panel cluster of 4 sticks. Got quoted $100+ for a new one. Would love to replace it for $3.99 if it's the same one!

        • I put my alluminium ashtray cover, drink holder flap and socket cover on; haven't got around to doing the side pieces and the climatronic yet. Figured they'll take a bit more work to get on...

                            • Yesterday actually, got it up on the ramps and checked that the fan external resistors were still in place and the bolts were tight, they were! Also fitted back the under engine splash guards including a new centre piece as the original was broken. Oh and while I was under there I cleaned off some oil on the bottom of the block, need to keep an eye on that to see if it is leaking or is just old oil there.

                              • Scanned and documented the code for the blown front bags.
                                Fitted new front bags, module and clock spring.

                                Gotta say the GTI steering wheel has much beefier clips that hold the airbag in place, compared to 4 spoke wheels.
