Re: New member, my GTI

A couple of issues, the xenons dont auto adjust (if anyone could shed some light on what that might be that would be grand) Common fault - the plastic ball joint socket on the back of the lights has probably cracked, so the arm from the adjuster motor is not connected to the back of the lights anym...

Re: My Website, Check it Out

Site is nice enough, but I would try remove some of the links to try and get the photos + videos centre-stage. Look at this site, I think it's great - it's basically just his pictures - www.softbox.ie

Best of luck with it!

Re: Quiet forum

The forum has got an awful lot quieter than 2007 / 2008. The problem is people move on from Polos. On my local VW forum we have members from age 16 to 65, noone leaves when they trade up.
