      Are the mirrors designed to be at least manually folded? If so, this might be sufficient for some.
      Happy to be of service

        They do manually fold, at least on my 110TDI.





        Pictures should help you know how to angle turn it...good luck!

          Thank you Eaglehawk. Problem solved or half solved, depending on your personal requirements.

            Anywhere up to 128gb sd card, the tech at North Star vw in brissy said it can read up to max of that and the media player can read up to 4 folders deep so
            Artist>album>folder>folder

            He said to put the music into iTunes and then drag from the actual iTunes folder withing the application settings folder and all artwork and album order stays the same

            Worked fine for me so far and can add new music at anytime which is handy.

                    The best thing I can see coming out of this is the morons who create ADRs losing their jobs and Australia harmonising with say European standards.

                    Per the article I can't see it feasible importing a lower priced vehicle by the time you factor in all the costs and loss of economies of scale. I suspect it would need to be second hand as well, new cars would be protected by territory agreements (where imports are done by third party groups as opposed to VWA which is owned directly by VAG) and good luck making a warranty claim on it!

                        Pity they aren't for baby seats! I am about to be a father, thought I could get a nice ISOFIX unit here, but nup, and they have made it illegal to not run an Aus standard one!!
                        I am in NZ at the moment and they often have Au/NZ approved units, but these days here they are using EU standards from the few shops I have looked at, so I am screwed.

                              Sadly you will still be fined if caught using the best seats in the world, Recaro.

                              I even asked both my local member and the Government directly why they made it illegal for me to use the best seat in the world for Junior Dubber to no avail.

                              I know VW did a run of child seats in GTI tartan for their domestic market - not sure if there was an R version - but again can't source here.

                              • For those who may not have seen it in the other thread, I removed the front number plate mounting on my R:



                                I think it looks better.
