cheers for the warning i have a bit of condensation in the high level third brake light, is that normal or should i get it sorted?
-
side bulbs are normally easy to fit, i wouldnt touch the main xenon bulbs tho! lol interior colour, its black with black leather. i'm thinking of cambridge lights too, think the grey would suit the grey anthracite
-
have you got different side light bulbs to make them look more white i had laser blue side light bulbs in my last car and they were pretty white, might give them a go
-
just went out in the dark, the xenon lights are top as you said! the side lights do look yellow compared tho!
-
finally picked it up today, looks better than i remembered it!! the grey anthracite is a cool colour it didnt come with locking wheel nuts and they tried to fob me off saying it does come with them, but i showed them the brouchure where it says that are standard and they backed down!! really happy with it, just hope it gives me many years problem free motoring!!

Taking out my standard head unit
academic replied to Xtina's topic in Interior and In-Car Entertainment
is the standard vw headunit any good tho, what power has it got? -
so in the boot there should be: pump metal catch to get the centre caps off with, tyre repair can locking wheel nut key what those blue lights called, they look cool, i have heard of silver vision bulbs, they similar to them?
-
the indicators are at the bottom of the main light, thats where i have seen blueish bulbs yeah when i pick it up i'll checks its got the repair kit, is the compressor basically a pump? see this pic: http://forums.clublupo.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=11767

another couple of questions for you lol some gti's i have seen on here have blue bulbs in the headlight, what would they be? also have gti's got fog lamps where the other models have indicators?
-
polo gti is group 12 insurance, where as lupo gti is 11
-
early one i think, square headlights, yeah that would 90bhp
-
another beginners question whats a BMC, a lot people seem to have it and talk about it is it basically an induction kit, but a lupo specific one?
-
the early vtr's had 90bhp, the later ones with the rounder head lights have about 100bhp i think
-
think i am getting this wing mirror question, so if i want a big passenger mirror to match my drivers one, i'd have to get a euro n/side mirror or if i wanted a small drivers mirror to match the passenger mirror, i'd get a euro o/side
-
probably prefer 2 larger mirrors tho, sorry if i'm being thick!! lol also my lupo has leather seats, im picking it up saturday, so does that mean they are heated aswell?
-
its all confusing. so the bigger mirrors are the uk ones?
-
if i wanted 2 big mirrors instead, i'd have to order a uk passenger mirror right? how much would that cost since they are electric? think cambridge lights would really suit my grey lupo
-
my passenger side is the small one, so i'd have to order a euro drivers side one? i dont mind having the drivers side slightly bigger, more useful then! how much are cambridge lights, and do they fit in without any modifications to the wiring etc?? cheers
-
so the euro mirrors are smaller? my brothers lupo sport had 2 small mirrors on, so they must be the standard size
-
i noticed on the lupo gti i have bought that the drivers side wing mirror is bigger than the passenger side. is that normal, or has the previous owner changed to a bigger mirror cos the normal ones are small
-
cambridge special edition? so the lights are VW made then? thanks for ya help, when u get urs done can u get pics up so i can see what they look like on the grey gti? cheers
-
its grey anthracite (spelling) BMC? whats that? i've heard of cambridge lights? what they like, what can i get them from? its still got 2 years warranty so i dont wanna mess with it too much thanks for your help

just reserved a lupo gti 04 plate, air con, cd player and leather seats. i'm new to the lupo, so what are the cheap, quick mods i can do to it?
