Video now posted on my thread mate :) listen out for the redline :wink:
Been washing it every week mate but still havent given it a good going over yet, my mate lent me some of that show room shine stuff and to be honest its a real good product if your looking for a fast clean.

I need to get myself some more Poorboys Glaze in the coming weeks because i'm sure the paint will come up a treat with a few coats of that stuff, it worked wonders on my GTI

I wish :(

No need a bit of work to get them in, although nowhere near as much as the newer golf seats.

Will do a detailed write up when i come to fit them.

That would be quality mate always wanted to know what's involved in fabricating new seats in. I never understood why you couldn't take runners off of old seats and just whack them on instead
