What Accessories are you buying for your MK6 Golf?

[dave_r]

Back on topic, I bought a VW luggage net and it's great for keeping things secure in the boo.t

Yeah I got one chucked in with the car, its great. I've had some heavy stuff in the back and it holds it in place nicely so I don't have to adjust my driving

is that the same to this?
Volkswagen Golf VI 2.0T > Search > On Sale > ES#447739 Cargo Net, Black Elastic Nylon With Hooks - For Smaller Loads - 8J0065110

thinking of getting it but shipping is almost twice the item's price...

I may have to invest in one of those luggage nets.

hooba, did you get yours from your VW dealer, or from a third party?

Yes, that's it. As with most things from the US, shipping is a decent factor. So whist shipping starts at $33 for that one item, if you whack on a bunch of other items, the shipping may only increase to $45 - which makes much more sense from the value point of view.

Are intending to fit coil overs in the future ?

ET45.

no i dont intend to.
Would they foul?

[wooduck]

Fab_R,
Speaking from my experience I have having fitted coilovers and with ET 45 19 x 8.0 OZ Ultraleggeras to my R they rub. I had the mounting face machined 5 mm to get it to ET 50. Just picked them up this morning.

Thanks for the info wooduck...

Ah nice work...any pics of them?

[Mr_Bob]

wooduck,
Given your offset change, I assume are you referring to rubbing on the guard?

going from +45 to +50 would give you less clearance between the inner edge and the coilover.

[Fab_R]

yeah i was thinking that just now...?

[wooduck]

We will know tomorrow if it all works.

Pics to be posted soon.

Got it from the dealer. The VW one has smaller hooks than the one in the link, and it suits the VW small tie down loops (the boot in picture doesn't look like a golf). I like the fact that they both got a "pocket" in the net.

Thanks hooba.
