Re: Lowered or not lowered: this is the question
Hi, My shock and rear spring pretty much settle from first install, I did prefer the standard load for tyre pressure for my car 36psi at the back but with original I prefer the comfort pressure of 32psi with same tyres.

Re: Broken plastic in my car after work done by garage
Hi, Do you have arm rest and rear cup holder? If so I'm certain those are clips broke from the arm rest side or/and rear cup holder trim. The mechanic would have removed the arm rest / cup holder to gain access to adjust the parking brake cable.

My polo have those foam in the A pillars trim from factory and without airbag there. The foam has a part number if I've remember correctly so maybe its something you need to buy separately from the new A pillar trim

Re: Lighting behind heater controls
If you have vcds or obd11, you can replace with second hand HVac module pretty cheap. Its relatively simple to remove exist module and replace with another. You do need to code match to you existing module.
