cheers... great help

all installed and working properly now... lets just hope this one doesn't get nicked now!

could anyone tell me which wire is which please

I have...

red wire
brown wire
brown/red stripe
white/blue stripe

then 4 others which I assume are for the speakers

am trying to install new headunit into mates polo cos it got nicked and they hacked the wires so there are no connections, but so far ...

I too need to know this as my flat mates radio was nicked and they just hacked off the wires to get it out - trying to fit a new one but already blown the fuse 3 times!

help please

some days my polo is happy to play and drives nice and fast... other days it won't have any of it.. and find myself being tested by little micra's and 106's and stuff... very embarrassing...

thanks Si... beginning to think mine wasn't fixed properly but think it must be... def felt cold in the cabin with it on... when I got out the car I felt a heatwave! I'm just overly paranoid as has taken sooooooo long to get this problem sorted... I'm talking 7 months now!!

Mine is 2000 X reg

Silver, red seat belts, red door cards, 1 on the seats, rubber pedals, climate control, 6 disc changer in boot, and a sunroof (which was fitted as an option I believe)

picked mine up yesterday... they say they have finally fixed the air con... faulty mechanism linked to the compressor... all done under warranty. Seems to be working... kinda ok... it does cool the car but not frosty?! driving later on so will test it again then

does seem to take a little bit of ...

Silver 3 door for me... went to see a red one but when I turned up it was balck?!

think they look nice in red though cos the rear lights blend in with bodywork

corrosion on the alloy wheels seems to be a common problem... if buying from dealer try and get them replaced before you drive it away cos I am having trouble getting them replaced under warranty! and they cost £300 each to replace!!

mine was involved in rather nasty "incident" when it was in for a service... got a lovely long scratch/dent down the rear panel... they fixed this for me with no charge of course, but while it was in for this they managed to scratch the sh*t out of my drivers side window ... so went back again and ...

thanks guys... Josh, will these springs make the ride REALLY uncomfortable?! Also looking to change my tyres shortly as one has slow puncture and rear ones fairly low... was thinking of getting Toyo's as I only do about 6/7k a year so don't need hard wearing tyres? are these a good choice?

for improved handling and a drop of about 30mm - 35mm would a spring/damper kit from the likes of koni be ok for a Polo GTi

what are the benefits of coilovers as these are much more expensive?

jon, did you do this yourself or get it done properly?

ok... so I think I better tell them then.... have some replacement rear lights on order and didn't really think about the insurance till after I'd ordered them.

I want to colour code my front splitter also so would I need to mention this... seems like such a straight forward thing to me.
