Re: 2016 GTI LED FOG LIGHT BULBS



I've now fitted some of these bulbs to my 6C Polo GTI here in the UK (bought from a different seller). Like yourself I'm very pleased with them so far. Much brighter than the standard yellowy Osram H8 filament bulbs and the colour temperature is a close match to the LED headlights (although the ...

Re: Removing emblems

Warm them first, either with a hairdryer or hot water and use strong fishing line to cut the adhesive foam, for the tidy up, a caramel wheel or tar & adhesive remover to remove the remnants of the foam, wash and polish after removal!

Job done!

Re: New GTI

Wooo! It's being built :D

I must admit the process of ordering the car and then waiting for it to be ready is something I hadn't thought about as I've never had a new car before. It's excruciating!

This GTI is the car i've wanted since I was 17. I'm now 41 and loving it :mrgreen: Well ...

I did this myself. No fees, no interest. I "withdrew from the contract". Also got a year's free insurance.
At which point during the 14 days did you withdraw?

Re: Possible new GTI

Tip: you can take a PCP then pay it off immediately and still retain the deposit contribution discount and any other incentives offered such as free insurance.


This was mentioned when I ordered the car though I was sceptical! Spent the last hour trawling t'internet, seems there are virtually no ...

Re: RARB

Theoretically exactly the same as the front ARB, Adds an extra link across the rear suspension, had a 20mm bar on my Fabia, but as it was fitted at the same time as I fitted Eibach's it's hard to say how much of a difference this one component made, all in all after they were fitted the difference ...

Re: Possible new GTI

I done much the same thing, took carwow & DTD quotes to my local dealer, they couldn't match but got comfortably close, which saves me trawling across the country to pick it up when it arrives!

Got nearly £1600 off list on a cash sale. If I'd taken a PCP and had a VW in the household I'd have be ...
