What have you done to your MK 7 today ?

[Booth11]

Been a busy week in the Wigit house

The wife's R was three so treated it to a full detail and redcoat and omg it pops now, also had a brake fluid change, MOT and back in next week to try and cure a rattle around drivers door or footwell, they cured the one due to the fake sound thingy

Also sorted out my replacement for the rental Golf R Estate which is going to be a black UP GTI having sorted a deal and got the place in the queue sorted before 2nd Feb

That’s a change from the R Estate wigit. Don’t need to extra space anymore?  Be really interesting to hear your thoughts on the up! GTI when you’ve got to grips with it. Mrs wigit’s R must be looking very nice after its birthday treat.

Here you go sean:



I think it's well worth doing, the white standard lights just don't fit in right but the red really pulls the lighting together

I can’t see the pic... were they from the ebay link and were they easy to install?

I've had problems seeing some pictures, refreshing the page worked for me albeit they took a while to appear. I did my lights as per the instructions on this thread http://www.golfgtiforum.co.uk/index.php?topic=275882.0 but you can buy units outright now on ebay. I also swapped my glovebox light for one of the redundant footwell leds, better than the standard bulb and free

Car’s looking great Jeni, and good on you for braving the snow! 

[CHB100]

My word that's some snow foam you have there! Looking great, I like white (when clean!)
So are you on winter tyres? Seems everyone is north of Birmingham.
Or do you have other transport with them?

My hands were numb red raw a tell ye but shes looking MINT

[Watts]

Nothing much, just a trip to the supermarket but even in appalling conditions it still makes an otherwise boring trip fun

Relaxing now with a nice drop of Rioja having been busy all day mopping my OH's fevered brow, bl@@dy flu...

[Watts]

Finally made my mind up and stuck a hand deep into my pocket and bought some new mirror caps. I like the gloss black ones but really wanted carbon fibre. So I've taken a gamble on a set that have a red thread also woven in. I'm not convinced yet that they won't clash on a red car but nothing ventured... Plus I can return them



Opinions good and bad welcomed.
