Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before. We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

    Consider some R32 wheels and Painted GTI bar and front lip. What are your planned mods?

      Actually i quite like the wheels the GT has ^_^

      My plans at the moment are to keep playing arround with small things, possibly getting the front lip soon, some yellow highbeam bulbs, and brighter headlight bulbs.

      Also im waiting on a cable to extend the MDI as i need to hide the unit somewhere !

      apart from this, the only things i can see are the gti sideskirts, and some form of lowering that wont affect my insurance.

      Do you have any other ideas on small fun stuff?
      I also put in LED number plate lights, will have to take a photo of all this when the car is clean

        GT Seat inserts. Look clean and nice. Maybe a set of R32 tail lights , Brushed silver Air con dial rings. I can send you the link. Have a look at Benough GT and Poyta. The best GT's i have seen .

          What are the seat inserts?
          Also i tried to find Benough's build thread but can't seem to find it under his threads, where can i view that?
          Thanks for the tips!

            Benough hasn't exactly got a build thread. But there are many pics of his car on the forum. Send him a PM. In regards to the Seat inserts this is what theu look like.

                    Had no problems with them but talkin the car down in price was a challenge. I am happy with my purchase. Changed the hedunit myself to a rcd510. Well worth it, prob wont bother with an mdi kit. Have to pull the unit out again coz i forgot 2 screws lol
                    Gonna wire up an aux lead in the back n hope that works, dont see why not tho.
                    I reckon its an awesome car, my glow plugs sometimes dont function, but its rare. So i juss wait till they work again. If it were a major problem id get them fixed lol

                      my car's been off the road for a while with a broken clutch, but once it's fixed i'll be fishing to see if some peeps want to go for a little drive.

                        Hey mate I havn't yet, hopefully soon I can make it to some, I'm a pretty busy uni student on placement atm, so weekends are usually recovery from a friday or saturda night, but I'll try and figure something out!

                        And yeah pumbz, I installed the RNS510 instead with Bluetooth and MDI, put all the ipod cable wiring out of the centre console so its nice and stealth. Also have a sub in there!
