lupo1.0se Posted June 5, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 5, 2014 Nice GTI! Did I see this at Stonor park?Yes I was at stonor. Still needs more work though.Hey mate where did you get the mats from?Next to impossible. Been obsolete for years. I put it as a want advert. I missed out on 1 set by a couple of days (quite annoyed as the guy was selling a GTi with two sets of mats!!!!). Then another guy offered me a set. Although they are pricey......

rozzaa146 Posted June 6, 2014 Report Share Posted June 6, 2014 are the silver speedo and revmeter covers GTI standard or are they custom made? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lupo1.0se Posted June 6, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 6, 2014 are the silver speedo and revmeter covers GTI standard or are they custom made?They are standard on all GTi's. Sets do come up from time to time but you need the clock covers as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lupo1.0se Posted June 24, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 24, 2014 (edited) Right. Managed to get a new gear knob! (and some new suspension caps as the originals where cracked). So the interior is now fully back to standard. Â Â Please excuse the grey mats they are protecting the originals!!! I also cleaned the washer bottle, it was full of dirt and who knows what and found out why the car smelt a bit damp. It was due to a blocked drainage port on the drivers side.

Danyutz Posted June 24, 2014 Report Share Posted June 24, 2014 What's with the sticking cable out of the radio? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattarosa Posted June 24, 2014 Report Share Posted June 24, 2014 What's with the sticking cable out of the radio?I believe its a tape to aux cable, its a tape that you put in but the cable is a male aux allowing you to use mp3 devices.

malte Posted June 24, 2014 Report Share Posted June 24, 2014 .....why the car smelt a bit damp. It was due to a blocked drainage port on the drivers side. Can you tell me more about this? My car also smells alittle "damp". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lupogtiboy Posted June 24, 2014 Report Share Posted June 24, 2014 In the area where the ecu is kept, there is a drainage hole that leads to the wing, and these can block up with leaf mulch and other crap. Mine did the same, cleaned it out, no more water! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
