Polo GTI fog grills ( Honeycomb )

[G-VW-PGTI]

It would be interesting to see if these ones have the part number left on them, as the ones I've ordered from vagteam had the part number "erased".

They remove the part numbers for some reason ... i friend of mine bought the same stuff and his part numbers was removed

"Thank you for purchasing from VAGLiNK. Your order has been shipped."

Hong Kong Post "The item left Hong Kong for its destination on 18-Aug-2009"

I ordered after a few of you so should be in soon! Was concerned about stock as a few of us ordered at similar time.

The fog light ones pull straight out, though the drivers side has a screw to undo first !

The middle one is easy with a set of snips ... cut through it in the middle so it flexes more and it pops straight out !! New one just clicks straight in - easy !

i tried to pull mine, and it didnt come out (or move a cm...), i can see even the bumper have change shape due to my pulling...

Should i just keep pulling?

Are you talking about the centre one ? If so, I cut mine with snips to create more flex .... otherwise you need to pull the whole bumper off

Here's a printscreen I took from etka - chinese version with possible part numbers:

I think those marked there are the right codes as they seem to match with what noone posted.

Tim needs to add this item to Dubaddiction

[Gti Dave]

Yeah, I had difficulty sourcing them too especially with no part numbers and weren't able to get back to Tim about them but since there are now part numbers, it should make things easier for him to get them in. Hey Tim, u interested?
Yay I also got my grills delivered today (according to the wife anyways)
Gonna try and install them this week end. Should complete the front end nicely. Still thinking whether to get the front lip though.

So, as I've provided the part numbers, i expect 10% royalties off each grill imported direct from VW / VAG.



Hope i don't start seeing too many around tho. Can probably get the part # off the side pieces too if anyone is interested (I got the non ventilation version and will self-ventilate (hack).

I tried to order this stuff last night but for some reason when i click on proceed to checkout the next screen comes back with blank information ... it just has the vaglink banner and the links but nothing regarding the order at all ... anyone else have this problem ??? or could it just be a firefox issue

[noone]

Don't know mate, could be a browser issue.

I got the cheap one, used a Dremel equivalent to open up the drivers side for ventilation to the SMIC.

Grafted the old air scoop onto the new one.

Money well spent.

No...
Just the fog light ones...

[noone]

Drivers side has a screw to the center side of the fog light. Screw was not in contact with the grill on mine, so both came out with light pulling.

Should not have to pull with much force, check for screws (would be visible from the front) before having another go.

Approximately what length of time from when you order to when the stuff arrives?
