Haha yeah mate it will be interesting to see what can be achieved from the GTI engine.
Just had the fresh quote come back yesterday at just over £1300 so its an expensive upgrade.

Gutted about the window Bradley, hopefully that will be put right on Saturday though

Didn't know ya could have these on the gti, would the screen have to be fitted in at Vw??

How does it activated the wipers and that?

Mine has it. It's just a new windscreen with a rain sensor mount, a new wiper relay and an autodimming mirror with rain sensor and some wiring

Quite easily done

Tidy little upgrade to any GTI and much prefered over the origional

do you have a p/n and price for this bradley? smart polo really liking this one. well done.

I havent im afraid buddy,if you're planning on buying one from the main dealer they can search for you and it'll be on their system.

Thankyou dude,try to keep things subtle and looking tidy.

Got mine from ebay mate. Try there also.

There's currently a seller selling some labelled for a 6N polo GTI... however, they do look A LOT like the 9n3 GTI handbrake in the pathetic picture supplied. Not sure if it's genuine or not though.

Here's a link http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/New-VW-Polo-6N-GT ... 3a6234b848

On further inspection, I think that's the correct part number on there too. 10 available... may just go for one

APOLOGIES TO BRAD FOR HIJACKING HIS THREAD

I've emailed the fella selling these on ebay... it IS the 9n3 handbrake cover He sent me some more detailed photos of the item, if you want I can post them here

Well my cars normally pretty clean but the paint had been crying out for some attention after the tough winter.

Today was the day to give the car a good clean up.

Token Foam shot.


Some reflection shots.

Looking good dude, what did you use? Hoping to do mine in the next couple weeks, been used and abused over the winter, time to give it a full going over.

Thanks man,i have it a snow foam and then washed it off,Washed with two bucket method,clayed bad parts of paint,one strike of Auto Glym SRP then sealed up with a coat of Collinite 476.

I'll wash it next weekend,then possibly apply another coat of Wax and give the black parts some loving.

It does need some paint coreection so that may come into play in the next few months.

Looking good! Be good to see it at the meet next weekend

Paint correction, what you got planned brad?
