Guest Lauryn Posted May 28, 2009 Report Share Posted May 28, 2009 Its a pig I've heard, might get round to fitting my red GTi ones if I keep the car! If you manage yours Kara then come do mine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jon_273 Posted May 28, 2009 Report Share Posted May 28, 2009 It's easy when you know how You just need a socket set, small flathead screwdriver and some torx bits IIRC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kara Posted May 28, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 28, 2009 been told what to use on SVAG so hopefully should be pretty straightforward!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobG Posted May 29, 2009 Report Share Posted May 29, 2009 (edited) took me two hours or so to do all mineIts easier if you take the back seats out completely, But yeah, it's just a case of undoing screws on trim, then unbolting the units themselves. The hardest part i found was getting the rear trims back in the right order.You can see the tools i used in the pic below. I didn't take any of the actual process though.

RobG Posted May 30, 2009 Report Share Posted May 30, 2009 Thanks robg..2 hours!! i'll set aside a WHOLE day then!! Nah, 2 hours is about all it takes, I'm a complete wuss when it comes to taking cars to bits. Gimme a shout if you need a hand, I'm not that far away from you. Also make sure you get lupo belts, I think Linz said she got some arosa ones, and they have different fittings or something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Lauryn Posted May 30, 2009 Report Share Posted May 30, 2009 Kara do you have black belts yet? I swapped mine for red ones but when I fit the red ones I will have some light grey ones sitting around, if you're stuck you could maybe dye them? Just a thought!Lauryn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
