What have you done to your mk4 (golf/bora) today?

[Coralon]

Definately interested in where you sourced the parts and any issues you had with the installation, that looks rteally nice and brings the old bora right up to new car standards.

thats awesome where'd you get all the parts for it?

[gringo_54_oval]

0oh thats real nice.good job.
man we need a like button!

[graeme86]

Yep. Can't beat an OEM Sat Nav with the display in the cluster.



That's a low mileage Bora by the way!

There is also another set of buttons you can get for the MFSW with a phone control on the left side where the blank button is.

One of the T5 phone modules then allows a phone address book display in the FIS as well.

Show off

But it does look good

That is awesome grtuned, you HAVE to write a DIY for this!!

[audi-tone]

washed it yesterday... its funny how much more you like your car when its washed and all pretty!

[grtuned]

Parts are available on e-bay but you need to check the German e-bay thats where all the good stuff is for vw's. I installed myself which brings down cost but all up not that expensive. You can put in original gear or buy stereo system and spend around the same!!

[kapowww]

After seeing that my life feels a little more insignificant. Great stuff grtuned! Can you give us a ballpark figure on how much you spent??

[grtuned]

Thanks jpflorez, First is nav unit around $400-$550 on e bay should come with aerial, steering wheel and air bag $250-$300, dash insert around $500-$600,tmc module $250-$300, connectors and wiring $50-$60, you will also need map cd but i'm sure these can be found cheap i was lucky a mate had version 12. All the stuff was from the States and Germany.
Sometimes installs like this get in your head and your not happy with yourself untill you prove it can be done.

Took it to the shops, and noticed that the Dash Lights always on when key is in and on acc/on even with the headlights off

[graeme86]

When you say "dash lights" do you just mean the cluster or every light on dash including switches etc??

If its just the cluster, then the previous owner may have done the "dash lights" mod.

If its everything on the dash then the headlight switch may be faulty.

Starting the mods on my MkIV R32 when the parts arrive

So far this is the list:

Rear wiper mod - mk5 aeroblade or remove it, unsure yet, what are your thoughts?
VWVortex.com - Removing/Delete Rear Wiper *DIY*

Painting brake calipers to deep pearl blue - G2 Kit
LB5R 6X Deep Blue Pearl Audi Volkswagen Custom Color Match Brake Caliper Paint

Floor mats need replacing - Does anyone know where I can get some r32 ones from? I've searched high and low!

Parklights, to white bulbs instead of yellowish

Painting interior scratched/peeling interior parks, steering shroud and shifter trim bezle

Interior leds, which I saw on this thread and thought were pretty neat

Also I'm changing my aftermarket stereo leds from green to red and blue, which I'll also post up the process.

Floor Mats you can get from TMTUNING

I've bought heaps of stuf from them with no hassle.

Hey Quozl,
Yeah i thought that was a sure bet, OEM and all but "(RHD and grey versions are unfortunately no longer available)." which must of happened quite recently.
