Declan96 Posted September 22, 2015 Report Share Posted September 22, 2015 hi, ive had a look on the forum but cant find it covered anywhere but im sure someone must have done it before. i want to remove the original boot handle, smooth it off and where the badge is insert one from a golf or Passat where the boot handle is actually incorporated into the badge i.e pushing the top of the badge opens the boot. I'm assuming the boot is opened by a metal rod rather than electrically? just trying to find out whether it is relatively easy to do because I think it could be a right ball ache and wanted your opinions before I started.Declan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silver! Posted September 22, 2015 Report Share Posted September 22, 2015 You need to find a boot from something like a MK5 Golf.Cut out the section holding the badge\handleCut out the badge recess and weld the replacement into your own boot.Connect wiring etc.Been done a few times now. Looks good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
