        Looks sweet! How did you do it? Currently have a pearl black 6c GTI and I'd like to black or change the emblems. Did it on my last 6r but u sure on how for the 6c

          Front badge, best way is to remove front grill, 2 screws in top corners along radiator support and pull forward (mine is a comfortline). Then it is very easy to pop out, push in 4 clips that hold it in.

          For the rear badge it is similar to this vid, just need to get an old credit card in there and use of plastic trim tool helped. No indent for the Polo to get started.

            • Thanks! Just came across this video as well. He has another in which he removes the front badge with a screwdriver without touching the grill, would it not be the same for the Polo? Thanks for the quick replies

                It is held on by little clips from the gloss back backing, but more likely to break clips this way. Taking it out completely as one is much safer and easier.

                • Can you not open the bonnet then twist the front badge to the left then pull it off like you could on the 6R?

                    No, not for the 6C.

                        I'm waiting for that exact intake, how was the install for you? and does it have a secondary filter separate or is it combined with the whole box?

                        Thanks

                          It's got a Pipercross pod filter inside. I had it installed by Phil @ Eurospec when it was in to be lowered. From memory the bracket was too long & he had to amend the coupling hose too. Nice bit of kit & HG MS where a dream to deal with!

                          • Any luck with the error code?

                            Would the plugs wiring be different from installing a 6r seat into a 6c?

                              Does the grill come out just like the Mk7 golf? The 6r grill I found a bit tricky trying to avoid breaks. And are the rear badges different on the 6c? Can't find any already done black. Thank a lot for the help

                                Not sure how the golf grill is removed but once you remove 2 screws, pull the grill forward and it unclips fairly easy. Apparently it is but I ordered 6c specific badges.
