Going into VW tomorrow to see if we can order from UK.

Failing that maybe Beijing can help us us???

Beijing would you be willing to help us here in the UK?

I want this but want it to fit with all the correct plastics.

i ordered mine from china, its wobbly. not being funny but BEIJING polo is the one bigging them up.
if it was an original part why is it made from a completely different plastic?

arm rest = disappointment

Did you order yours from VW China?

You got any pics of your one fitted?

What colour did you get?

Does it match the GTI plastics?

Any part numbers?

Also Beijing only gave his opinion as some of us asked.

Thanks
