So they make more money when people take it to them to do it rather than do it themselves.

Next question :lol:

LOL i veiwed 6 GTI's 2 black one's which had red badges front and back, 1 red one that had met a ditch and repaired really bad and 2 silver ones but one had sky high mileage (120k) and the other i brought. :D
All GTi's had xenons and by law you had to have washers for xenon head lights, not sure if its changed but every car ive seen with xenons they have washers.

Washers are an MOT requirement with xenon headlamps.

What were all the blank switches for again?

1 for ESP
2 for heated seats
1 for airbag?

That's all I can remember

There's one, that possibly gets used by the manual air-con I think.
