Re: EL Light Install Polo AW 2019

So is this to replace the white light we already have with one of another colour of our own choosing + dimmability? Not sure whether to go GTI red, or will it look like a portable knocking shop from Amsterdam? :lol: Volkswagen Up GTI has the red light, I think that it looks incredible! :D Personall...

Re: EL Light Install Polo AW 2019

No it doesn't replace an existing light. We tap into headlight switch (dimmer) to make the light turn on and off with internal lights. But this is a brand new light strip added to the dashboard which was not present before. My car has those lights as standard, but in white. Is this specific to the ...

Re: How to remove dash board trim

Interesting. I’m 49 and love the red inserts. Originally I was set on the grey until I sat in the demonstrator and loved it. It makes the cabin a much brighter more interesting place. I do agree it’s likely to be one of those personal taste issues. In my old GTI people used to say mice car shame ab...

I too wanted to replace the red interior trim of my car, but for the life of me I couldn’t figure out how to remove the inserts with my trim remover tool, I was too worried off breakage...at least with order...

Re: External Exhaust Sound

I have had the sound actuator turned off and I definitely hear a sound difference in the different modes although not a big difference it is much bassier in sport especially in urban areas or covered forests where the sound echos however I have only done 180miles in my new car due to picking it lik...

Re: 2019 lead times

So today is not a good day. My car (GTI+) is currently sat at the dealers ready for my collection, but they are closed. Been told it will now be 15th April earliest before I can collect. That’s just a bloody tease. :( I'm in the same position. It may be worth getting the car registered in March bef...

Although mine left the factory the same day, my car won’t be in Emden until next Saturday (7th) and will be a further 2-3 weeks from there. Watching sailing routes has aided my African geography, but just want my car now.
