But I bet not a lot of people even know about them.Is it something silly like cup holders? I have 2 in mine and no coin tray. Apparenty not many have that....? I will have a guess at a genuine gear knob. I know you were looking for one the other week Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silver! Posted March 19, 2012 Report Share Posted March 19, 2012 No I already have 2 cupholders, soon to be joined by 2 cointrays.Gear knob, I already have one yes, and I was looknig for another, but no I think rarer even. I reckon I could steal this from your car and you wouldn't notice.You will be so disappointed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silver! Posted March 20, 2012 Report Share Posted March 20, 2012 I would need to have acces to your car with locks open.I will post a pic up, but you will be disappointed.Some will say " I never noticed that", some will say "I seen it but never knew what that was for" andothers the cool cats will say "yeah, I know. It's so cool. I have 2 you know."...and as well as being rare, it would probably be one of the cheapest parts if you could in fact buy it from VW.

JoeA Posted March 20, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 20, 2012 That sounds like the back of my car, i had a detail to do on a BMW last week and ALL of my cleaning gear is still there. Including a hoover in the footwell behind my seat. Last night, i didn't realise the seat wasn't clicked in properly (gti seats with the two stage click), braked and got a nice surprise!

JoeA Posted March 20, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 20, 2012 When will we find out ray? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silver! Posted March 20, 2012 Report Share Posted March 20, 2012 GTIs only, maybe 3L, but I'm not sure. Whan I can find it, hence my requiring another one... ...I know I have it, it's just a matter of where I put it.I thought about making a "tray" for my iPod using closed cell foam. cut out a nice shape for the iPod to sit in with connector attached, layer and glue it on top of complete sheets; I was thinking 2 or three, then shaping it to match the curved profile of the underdash tray. Sit it between the steering wheel and centre console. Black would be best, but it could be covered in the same type of material as the C pillar trims.

JoeA Posted March 20, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 20, 2012 (edited) I put an iPod dock in the back of my din tray, worked brilliantly! but as said earlier, double din now.Edit: the above picture is a good reason for nobody to ever buy a blackberry! that was a storm 2 (top of the range when it came it out) and look at it, they can't take photos or do a lot else as good as an iPhone. that is all.

scotty_82 Posted March 20, 2012 Report Share Posted March 20, 2012 I don't have my own account for that reason, use the more sensible halves lolTbh I much prefer forums for certain parts as its almost like dealing with mates, I roughly know who I could trust and send parts to knowing only a family or natural disaster would stop them from paying ASAP eBay is full of chancers and scammers which tarnish to normal folk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
