What have you done to your MK 7 today ?

Those sills look good Sootchucker, can you get them with a GTD coloured stripe too?

I took my 2 week old, 300 mile GTD to the dealer today and drove off in a courtesy car whilst they look at an engine hardware fault. The dashboard warning light translates to a cat converter issue in the manual but apparently the actual fault is that the crankshaft timings are advanced. I'm disappointed as the part of the reason for going for new vs secondhand was the expectation that I wouldn't have to be doing things like this at this stage of ownership.

Finishes off the rear door area (well it will be finished when I wire in my rear door exit lights to the bottom of the door now I've seen how to do it over on a German forum in the next couple of weeks.)

looks real good 

Who was the seller on Ali Express and also what German forum details how to fit the rear door exit lights - been itching to do that mod

So today I swapped the dim yellow reversing bulbs for some cree led's from here http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/351388083718?_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT




Here's the original yellow bulb



and the new LED



And they look a lot brighter (camera doesn't really pick it up)

So one thing thats bugged me over the last few days with the car, is the back box sits a little low & with my garage being slightly higher than the house, its been catching my eye - so I had to give it a polish, it looks a lot better now







My wife thinks I'm completely bonkers !!
