neilGTI's Polo GTI - New Centre Caps Fitted

[neilGTI]

Got myself a new head unit:






I didnt want a screen, but i did want to fill the gap, it does MP, IPOd, USB, streams music from phone via bluetooth, handsfree kit, etc.

My plan is to buy a 160gb hard drive and plug it into the usb port which will mean all my music will be in one place reducing the amount of CD's etc.

What do you think ??

If I'm honest it's a pretty ugly device, which doesn't seem to offer anything more than a single DIN unit would, except it being freakishly large. To each his own though.

lol i'm not a massive fan either i'm afraid although i'd need to see it in the flesh...i think the best option for a 6n2 because of the shape of the dash is a touch screen carputer

i looked at this headunit, its quite a good spec....i hate to criticise but im not keen on it in the polo either

[neilGTI]

well everyone who goes double DIN in a polo goes for a screen of some sort, i even bought one myself but changed my mind, i dont want to be the same as everyone else

[Tim_GTi]

Seems a little silly to take 'originality' so far that it sacrifices funcitonality though?

They're popular for a reason that most of them are highly equipped with literally everything you'd need. And there's plenty of them out there to not be clashing heads with everybody at meets.

You probably have many a reason to why you bought this one though, and I'm sure it does what you want it to. so Enjoy!

A couple of updates:

New 25th Anniversary GTI Door Foils:


I had new grilles at christmas and finally got round to sticking the red pipning on the the main middle one:


Auid R8 Oil Cap:


Camo Roof Vinyl:






Some New Borbet A's as the Lenso ones were starting to rot:


I had to higher it to get the Borbets on but i am planning on getting the arches rolled to i can go down a abit more again.

Also the wheel company sent me the wrong centre caps and i should be getting the flat caps during this week.

[Tim_GTi]

Looking good mate!!! Borbets will look suit once the flat caps are on and the arches are done . Liking the roof, original touch

[neilGTI]

Cheers Tim, the flat caps should hopefully be here this week but i wont hold my breath as the bloke i bought them from doesnt really seem interested.

[Tim_GTi]

That sucks. How wide are the borbets?

[neilGTI]

they are only 7.5J but they stick out quite a bit because of the ET

[Andy1.6]

Loving the camo roof vinyl, looks fantastic, could you give me some info on it? Borbets look fantasic are they 15's or 16's?

[Tim_GTi]

Borbets dont come in 15s!

[Andy1.6]

Well lah di Dah!!! *walks away with tail between legs*

[neilGTI]

The wheels are indeed 16's, what do you want to know about the vinyl roof ?

A company in Burton upon Trent called Lime Turtle did the work for me, he normally charges about £160 to have what i have had
