do the gti chrome dial surround thingys, will they fit on a normal polo mk5? and would it be a case of simply removing the old ones and screwing in the new?
also where would they be available from? VW garage?

Lol they are part of the clocks and not available seperately - yes they are transferable, but you will struggle to get your hands on them lol!

I'm pretty sure you cant buy the GTi dials to fit on a non GTi mark5

EDIT: ahhh there you go^

As i said, its part of the clocks, and unless you wanna fork out close to £200, then dont even think about it :P

You could chrome spray the currents :P It could well work if you can find a bright silver paint!

Does everything just plug and play if u have the clocks tho? I sure a scrappy would have a set for cheap enough.

Dude, yes it is all plug and play, but the mileage is stored in the clocks, so say you stuck in the GTI mileage clocks, then it will diplay the mileage of thon GTI and not actually your car unfortunately :(

The GTI clocks have an outside temp guage and a clock in the middle so probably won't fit.
