I got a set of chrome electric window switches which I'm about to install. I saw you suggested removing the entire door panel to avoid breaking the trim around the switches. I looked at the instructions on how to remove door panels, but I thought I'd also ask you if you have any tips to make it easier? I haven't done it on the Polo, but on other cars the clips usually are very tight and something usually breaks when trying to remove the door panels.
Look at these pictures, notice the black box that I drew on the image of the clips:

With these tools you can remove the door panels in easily way and without break anything.

Why is it that I've only can find foldable mirrors for RHD? Shouldn't there be any for LHD?

LHD 6R never had folded mirrors as optional equipment from factory, only for retrofitting with original parts. Long history about it... :)

You need to remove the "s" in "https" for the YouTube video to show on the forum. :)

And you need to remove the privacy setting. ;)

Will work perfectly in your BlueGT with automatic lights. (also in cheba's WRC :wink: ).
BTW, have you installed the new bumpers that you said me? I was just wondering because of the type of light switch that you bought and because your BlueGT will be stunning with them installed, I'm looking forward to seeing it.
