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,

New R car mats, love them that much
Getting back to the serious stuff, had to take one of the headlight units out to fit something
Do they self level and align as there was a bit of play in the bolts but I've got it close to where it was.Last edited by Candyman; 28-06-2012, 10:02 PM.8VSS2L/16 E9E9 XG MP SPP1 4ZD 6XK CSC5P with an extra free 10kW

I'd have the fully optioned GTI too, just add Stage 1 or maybe a bit more and I'd be sweet. I've seen quite a few R's on the roads and none of them drive with any vim; they might as well be in a 90TSI.
Obviously I haven't come across Fab_R in my travels yet

Knew they did the start up leveling process but wasn't sure how good it was (I couldn't get them back to the exact same fitting location so assumed the leveling function would sort it)8VSS2L/16 E9E9 XG MP SPP1 4ZD 6XK CSC5P with an extra free 10kW

I am guessing Candyman put some ricer blue LEDs into his headlight housing where the small extra light is that isn't hooked up to anything.---
