What Accessories are you buying for your MK7 Golf?

[crainger]

So I got the rubber mats. Black, with red accents and GTI logo and I love how they look with the black interior with red stitching. The cargo mat is a tiny bit off in a one or two spots, but is thinner than the genuine mat so doesn't interfere with the cargo hooks. I use the hooks to secure shopping and the cargo net.

Also grabbed a GTI folding cargo box with the clark tartan seeing as I missed out on it on my seats.

Only new accessory so far... ‘Join the Golf club’ sticker purchased from this forum.

Will also fit the Rhino roof rack from my previous car, just need to buy new feet.

I picked up the Rubber Bootliner from ebay waiting for it to arrive, i wasn't sure about the rubber mats, i tend drive in barefeet so wasn't sure if they'd be comfy to lean on for long periods or not.

Has anyone swapped the door mirror covers on a Golf R yet? Not sure about the silver ones.... thinking black or carbon fibre look would suit a white Silver Golf R much better

It’s the first thing I did, went straight for the gloss black. I’m not a big fan of chrome or carbon fibre.

If you don’t mind me asking, what did you pay for it?

AliExpress has lots to choose from, just read reviews first as some don’t seem to be a good quality. Look what I found on AliExpress

I swapped mine for carbon fibre about 6 months ago. I bought them through eBay for about $175 delivered.

They’re legitimate parts complete with VW correct part codes (one is stamped SportWagon).

I’m really happy and they fit well. In fact the seller wanted a photo of my mirrors to confirm fitment before shipping them.

My gf said the same thing.

At the moment I'm debating if I should order some bumper plugs or make my own.
I'm struggling to find plugs to fit the 8mm holes left from the number plate frame.
I'm also struggling to find somewhere local that can sell the Indium Paint in a spray can. Tried autobahn and was told the code is too new and not in their books.

At the moment I just have some black trim clips. They are a little loose, but look so much better than the euro frame.

Anyone got themselves a centre armrest cubby tray?

The bumper plugs to fill the 8mm holes I ordered from Autoinstruct.

I then applied a colour matched spray paint (2 coats) and spray acrylic clear coat (3 coats). Both of the spray paints I ordered from here....

Also note that the ones you can order from bumperplugs.com don't actually fit the large factory holes left by the Euro plate holder. They are too small. They are designed to fit smaller screw holes.

Ah cool. I saw the auto instruct plugs. Will have to order some and paint them.

I got one. I wasn't a fan as it stops the armrest sitting on the rubber bumpers. Plus I didn't really have anything that needed to be separated that much. I tend to just keep microfibers and KFC towelettes in my centre armrest for the windscreen.

I bought the BumperPlugs and they’re quite expensive but finished perfectly.

As they were too big, I put a wrap of electrical tape on the plug and a dot of superglue to hold them in place. It’s enough glue to stop them falling out but not enough to cause a problem if I ever have to remove them. They’ve been in for over a year now without issue, even going through a brushless car wash without issue.
