VW Volkswagen Genuine Luggage Cargo Net Golf V/VI

Found some VW Volkswagen Genuine Luggage Cargo Nets for Golf V/VI on ebay. Seems the real deal and for $30 i'll take the chance rather then ordering one from VW for $110.

It matches the VW part number - 5N0 065 111 Luggage Net. Hopefully it will turn up.

Here is the link if any of you guys are interested.

Thanks! Good idea

ccoops79, I am interested in cargo net. Hate having things in the boot bumping and grinding.

Would you let us know when you get it? Do you know how much the dealer wants for the real deal?

At 5:10 on this video YouTube - 2010 Volkswagen GTI Review there are some velcro dividers for the boot of the car. I am really interested in these but have no idea what they are called or where to get them (and I don't want to pay excessive prices at a dealer).

Does anyone know what they are called so I can ebay search them?

[Corey_R]

They have multiple names.....
Here is a link to a listing of them

I would call them Velcro Block Cargo Organisers... but yeah...

That ebay cargo net isn't the same as the VW one I got, don't have photos though. I'm sure it will do the trick however, I didn't pay for mine and $100+ is crazy!

Got a APR Stage 1 ECU Upgrade and Stage 2 Carbonio Intake and piping through Canberra VW Centre. Excellent service, highly recommended for anyone in the ACT.

ordered neuspeed torque arm insert from Awesome GTI UK on 09/03/2011, arrived yesterday 01/04/2011.



did a quick DIY this morning.

tools used: 1 trolley jack, 1 jack stand, 1 honda jack (to push the insert in), 1 breaker bar, 21mm socket, 1 torque wrench (to tighten the bolt up to 74ft/lbs), 2 pieces of bricks (for blocking a rear wheel from rolling) and 1 silicone spray can.

i hate the vw scissor jack, it almost slided and the thread screw almost caused some damage to the panel area in front of the side skirt. i damaged my 118tsi panel on the left side under front door last year because of the stupid scissor jack.

time taken: 30mnts

after install: noticed slight vibration in the dashboard area during idle and there is an amplified resonating noise in the cabin during idle, worse when reversing slowly.

haven't not driven it spiritedly yet.. but the gear changes felt smother.

I had a look at the other items this guy was selling, and he had a rubber mat for the boot with the GTI logo and some other red graphic in the middle. I asked what other non-GTI mats he had and got this response:

Thanks for your enquiry, for the original one by Volkswagen(Volkswagen Genuine Flexible loadliner

(1K0061 160)), the price is $70US and the other one is $40US.

I then have images of two rubber mats, one completely plain (labelled 'original') and one with the GOLF logo bottom right (labelled OEM_Golf). Not 100% sure which witch is which but I'm guessing the one with the Golf logo is the dearer one.

Okay, follow up to my very expensive clear door sill. Picked this up last week from Bayside VW Moorabbin.





I can't post any photos after the install is because they are so clear looks invisible to the camera. The application of the door sill is like applying the iPhone Invisible Shield or screen protector. But for $120 I should've chose something different.

[Corey_R]

Thanks for the photos aVex. They are handy because they are obviously already cut to the exact "template" that you require for your car. If you had to cut manually from scraps of Ventureshield, it'd be more difficult - especially since you've got a couple different bends and surfaces to attach the stuff to.

I guess having different options is always a good thing

It's now ten days since I received my vehicle from the dealership and I've already done 800KM's. I've now placed an order for a Bluefin Stage 1 upgrade, but I've got to wait since there isn't any stock left. I'm telling myself six months later I'll then consider a downpipe, six months and not in the next 2 weeks.

[Ryan_R]

6 months?

Good luck

Does Bluefin have an upgrade path to support the downpipe?

yeah, does the stage 2 upgrade support downpipe?

i'm 80% about to place an order for Bluefin Stage 1 too and the stocks wil be arriving next week.

I already have fitted Gruppe M CAI + Carbonio State 2 intake pipe + Akrapovic catback and link pipe; so perhaps an APR downpipe will complement the stage 2 wish list :p

other wish list is a set of H&R small sway bars to complement my PSS10 which I plan to install when the new wheels arrive.. but i don't have plan to track the car.. yet.

then once all the above are done, i've got to find out how to stop the car better. already have adams rotors and gruppe m brake line kit, but the MY2011 GTI came with smaller rear rotor, hence different caliper
