Ok,
I have spoken to a company in germany and i ordered a set of these for my car, they are made of abs plastic and are great quality, they fit really well, i have the promo photo but i dont think its these exact vents, i will try and get a pic of them on my car to show you how well they sit.
Anyways, i can get them delivered to your door for 25 quid.
Does anyone want a set?
Just to prove a point, look on ebay, or any other sellers and your talking about fibreglass vents in the region of 30 quid before they are even delivered. These are ABS with clips to hold them in place, so they dont even need to be bonded in.
here are the vents

i like those!do u have a vr front bumper?
-
I dont know what difference there is between the vr and the gti bumper, unless your referring to the splitter.
Why do you ask?
-
i meshed mine the exact same as them :smiley:
-
I dont know what difference there is between the vr and the gti bumper, unless your referring to the splitter.
Why do you ask?
only because the vr has a different bumper than the 2.0 here in the u.s. i believe..i guess seeing a pic with them on will help.
-
I might go for some of these (if my vento front dosent get fitted??)
-
I realy like these! nice to see some decent ones. Might be interested :smiley:
-
:undecided: maybe
-

TBH I don't really know for sure! :grin:
I think it's an airflow sensor, some peeps on here said it was the air temp but I'm not convinced! :wink:

its the outside temp sensor.... and those vents look very good on your black car

Awesome! Thanks for clearing that up!
Thanks, I like it, couple of things left to do but it'll be not dis-similar to yours dude! :wink:
-
yeah the look your sporting is the way :wink:
i was thinking yours is very similar to mine, im actually after the smoked front lfogs etc and i notice u have those now :cool:
-
Wait until I put the Morette 4-lamps on! :grin:
Yea, were £99 on fleabay but are pretty good, used the metal clips off the original VAG ones as they wern't as good & didn't hold in place as well. Worth it though & look good, least they will once I clean the damned thing!
-
i have fitted a 6000k xenon in my smoked twin headlights, bloody awesome lighting :cool:
deffo think i will get the smoked fogs. indicators etc, they look superb :cool:

Is that a HID conversion??
Well thanks for the comments, more a tribute to your own car as it's the inspiration for mine!
Pic I took! :smug:
(http://i100.photobucket.com/albums/m12/eightyeightmph/ResprayIII.jpg)
Can't wait to get the Morette's painted up & fitted, just standard bulbs for me for now though! :embarassed:
-
yeah i have doen the hid conversion, really really good, my company car has them (mk 4 gttdi 150) so i wanted them on my mk 3
thanx for the tribute words too :wink:
the car is looking well :)
-
Any more of these lower vents available? What about shipping to an international buyer? Any chance that more are going to be made?
-
PM bored welsh lad, im pretty sure he has some more on order! Supply and demand :P
DEMMAND!
-
i've just ordered a set
-
ive just got through the door and ill get them shipped tonight if i can mate!
thanks Dicky
-
Got it posted today for you mate.
I have just had another 10 vents delivered, so snap em up
-
thanks mate.
As promised! Dead impressed with them too, pretty good fit & nice quality!
(http://i100.photobucket.com/albums/m12/eightyeightmph/Golf%20Accident%20Repair/Image044.jpg)
eightyeightmph where did you get the ducting from?
-
eBay!!!!
http://myworld.ebay.co.uk/mrsilicone/
-
Those vents look really good - might be keen on a set
I have the Morette quads with HID - awesome at night
(http://i133.photobucket.com/albums/q44/bstingroco/ME16V3DR003.jpg)
-
Awesome! That's whay mine will look like in a week or two! Did they just plug & play with the original light connections or did you put them in with Hid from the word go??
No Hid for me yet, something worth looking into though!
-
Yip Morettes are plug and play into your existing loom connectors and bolt straight onto the 4 bolts the factory lights use - the only bit that needs painting is the outer quad covers - they unbolt from the frame that holds the lenses.
They are vastly superior over the factory lights - as lights go :smiley:
To be honest HID is great too, but I reckon run them as they are for a while as they are really good lights anyway, out of the box.
-
do they do them for mk2's? :smiley:
-
im not too sure mate, i can ask for you if you like... ill see if i can get enough people interested to buy them for the mk2 lol
-
got mine today, thanks. they look great. i'll fit them when it's a bit warmer. ;)
-
cool mate,
get some pics up when its done....

These vents a direct fit?
Sorry i cant be bothered to read the whole thing.
My GTi has a broken vent on one side - so was thinking of using these to replace them.
Price with Delivery?

Thats me that posted above - changed my username!

£20 i think

can you jst get 1?
o/s?
i.e to connect an air feed on the back up to k&n?

think they are being sold as a pair, but a pair for £20 posted is a STEAL, some site would charge up to £50 without postage.
-
yeah ur rite,just trying to do it on a budget,only bought it to run round in,supposed to b saving up for a bike!!lol!
but that modding bug never goes away! already gt a k&n on n onli had it a week!lol!
feel like a smackhead..........must feed the addiction!!!! :laugh: :laugh:
-
I will definatly be buying a set.
Got to fix my front bumper first though. Got a bug durty crack right through the n/s fog. So this'll need sortd first.
Any one got a mystic blue bumper? PM me.
-
88mph.
I'm on your ebay site where you got the air feed. What diameter is it? Looks the buisness. Jubilee clipped on??
-
i'll take a set of these if possible...
but one question, how do you get the standard ones out? found 2 clip type things and released them and it made no difference... still wouldnt come out :embarassed:
-
the diameter is about 4inches/ 10 cm i think. i've spotted some around work, one of the guys is sourcing some for me :wink:
-
you have to remove old vents from behind the bumper, unclip bottom then yank em out. u might need to remove bumper bolt, and mind ya knuckles on the damn horn :grin:
-
whens the next batch going out ? what the feck want some as well
-
I have ten of them sitting here ready to go out mate...
-
I have ten of them sitting here ready to go out mate...
cool pm you pay day !!
-
ok mate... i await the end of the month for all these promises of money haha
-
Had mine fitted for 2 weeks now & they are great, pissed myself today though when I went to use the horn for the first time since fitting them & the roaring GTi let out a pathetically amusing "quack".
The sodding cold air pipe for the BMC is muffling the horn (which in all fairness I did move to the side to free up some space :rolleyes: ).
Ah well, will have to tinker at the weekend! :wink:
-

Thumbs up! :wink:
-
88mph. I posted this yesterday, but Im guessing you missed it. Which diameter of pipe did you get?
Is it jubilee clipped on? Looks brilliant.
-
Missed it dude! Sorry, I got 85mm to fit onto the BMC it was just coincidence it was the exact right size for the air vents too!! Yes, just a 70-90mm jubilee clip curtesy of B&Q! :wink:
-
Excellent.
Cheers 88.

Hello chaps, i'm afraid i have a slight problem.....bought these air vents and they're great, can't fault them at all. Problem is with my car though...i removed the old drivers side vent and found a circular metal disc right behind it, its hanging down on a small bracket and has a plug going into the back of it. I'd say its about 3-4inches in diameter.
anybody know what this is as its right in the way of the new vent, I can't even get it in! i'll get some pics up later on. I drive a 96 16v gti if that helps at all. any help would be much appreciated!
-
probably the horn
-
probably the horn
yeah it'll be the horn, think you can just push it out the way tho :laugh:
-
i took mine out, you have 2 horns, this bit is the deep sounding bit. Still have a horn, and good air intake :smiley:
-
i just bent it out the way! :grin:
-
i just loosened mine off and rotated it a bit, but you can do as mikester said and remove completely
-
Thanks lads thats great news. Ill get it sorted this weekend!

since horns were mentioned... where is the second horn??? :grin: when i fitted the vents, i obviously never pushed the horn back far enough and the horn sounded like a muffled duck :shocked: which makes me wonder why the second horn isnt working :sad:
-

the second horn is way up near the wing just/ bellow behind the head light,
i removed and relocated the lower horn near to the second horn, but tbh will prob get a more beffy sounding horn dont like the " meep meep" at mo lol
-
well, that explains why i have more of a high-pitched honk then, because i cannot see anything just below the headlight. looks like there's been a problem with the horns at some point because there's a fresh blue wire coming from the dash through to the one horn. think i need a new horn...

I only use the high pitch one, i might pimp myself a dixie horn for comedy value, or a huge air/fog horn ;)

hi there put me down for a set email sent

recieved the vents mate, really good quality!
how do you fit them tho? i cant get mine in properly :embarassed: :grin:
-
pm sent
-
Yeah I'm with Dub there, I've tried fitting them but they don't go in properly. Any help please?
-
This was answered earlier in the thread i think...
basically you need to undo the horn slightly and rotate it, it should allow you to fit them then without any issues...
-
I know about the horn, that's not the problem lol! It's just (imagine looking at the car and then the right lower vent) the bottom left of the vent doesn't fit properly, as if it doesn't clip in. I haven't had a proper change to get under but just wondering anyone knows any tips? lol!
P.S. BWL...thanks for the vents man, hell of a quick delivery :tongue:
-
When i did mine they were quite tight, i ended up jacking up the car and working from inside the front bumper...used a light to see where the clips were going to locate and use a flat head to prise them on..
-
cheers for the vents mate ... finally got them to fit properly :grin:

-
hey dubsport. if you notice it isnt sitting perfectly flush with the top, you can take a mm or 2 out of the clips on the back and it should sit better..
-
i only have one vent now :sad:
-
bump
-
Is there any possibilty i could make an order for a set of these vents please, is it just a case of sending funds over by Paypal ?
Cheers.
-
yeah mate, done through paypal normally...
£20 to bored_Welsh_lad@hotmail.co.uk could you mark it up as a gift also so we dont get nailed with charges??
Dicky
-
I'll take a set of these please.
Will zap across a PayPal payment as soon as you let me know you've got a set to send me...

me too lol :grin: :grin:
on a serious note can i see more pics of these fitted, im am concearned that they dont fit exactly how id like them to
so come on everyone who has these fitted post pics please, close ups etc
-
The fit does not look that good, why could they not make some the same but made them fit like original ones??
How much are they i might change my mind lol :wink:
-
The fit does not look that good, why could they not make some the same but made them fit like original ones??
yeah this is why i need to see more pics, look a bad fit on the red car, it would do my head in would that, id rather stay OE than have a bad fit
-
Me too mine is totally standard, But i have the left one missing. So its either find a left one or buy a pair,something that looked a bit more original would look better
-
Should be able to get the standard one ok at the dealers or breakers, should only be a couple of quid.
-
Its just that i live in the middle of nowhere, No dealers/breakers for miles unless you want a part for a kia or a massey ferguson lol
-
you can deffo get them at the dealer
failing that ask someone who is breaking a mk 3 on here or ebay
-
I put a wanted on here but no joy, so fleabay it'll have to be
-
01664gti...
I dont actually make them, i just get them in from germany... they seem to fit some cars better than others, i had to sand a small amount off the clips to allow the vents to sit flush...
I've sold plenty of them and if people aren't happy with them, as long as they haven't driven with them on the car i will always refund their money if they return them.
They are £20 delivered...
-
heres a few other pics btw...I forgot to mention that some people aren't running OE bumpers etc.. which also makes a difference

i had to sand a small amount off the clips to allow the vents to sit flush...
Think I might do that on mine as the inside top clip seems a little too high, forcing it to look wonky. Also had to remove 2 bolts going in to the bumper is this normal?

tbh mate, its been so long since i did them on mine i cant really remember

Don't ask why

Hey where can i get my hands on a set of these??

-

Ive had 2 or 3 sets, and they fitted fine. But im sure he will sort you out somehow.
-
I dunno if it's their fitment, because the standard grills fit and snap on piece of cake, but these just won't stay :(
-
They are tight, you have to really pushed them to snap on, took me a good 15mins each side first time.
Second time i had a 2nd bumper and smoothed them in and sprayed them haha. no problems then ;)
-
I found the easiest way to put them on is to get under the bumper and look from the underside of the engine bay you can locate the tabs from there.. if there are issues, post them back to me and ill sort you out with a refund
-
I did get on the underside matey, it was on a ramp at my friends lol! It's just not staying in place, like, two will clip but the other two won't making it wonkey.
I'll PM you later to sort out sending them back if that's cool?
-
I picked up a pair of FK ones the other day, not sure if it helps but I had to trim the bumper and they were a very tight fit.
-
Please can i get a set of these look really neat !
pm/email me details and payment etc
thanks
ant
-
Get some of these on fleabay!!!
-
All pm's sent out and a new batch hopefully ordered tomorrow so i can sort the rest of you out...
-
will you be putting any on ebay?
-
Nah mate, by the time i pay ebay fees and paypal fees i lose the small profit i make on them..
Especially now that the euro v pound is such a sh!t rate now...
-
hey guys, confirmed i have another batch of ten coming in next week, if they dont get here by next fri i might have a delay posting them out as im in the field all the following week getting beasted by the regiment so the chances of getting online are slim, although my missus will be able to answer some of your Q's.

what is the size of the meshed area? just wondering if you could cut the mesh out and fit a cold air feed
-
you shouldnt need to cut the mesh but heres pics of them with the cold air feed..
(http://i100.photobucket.com/albums/m12/eightyeightmph/Golf%20Accident%20Repair/Image044.jpg)
-
I see they go on the intake, but do they have a filter in them? How do they fit? I can see the air sensor plugged in.
Thanks.
-
Dont get what you mean mate?
your buying the bumper vents, you can buy the hosing like eightyeight did and run it up to the airbox as a cold air feed, i now run the air temp sensor into my inlet to have a wee check on the inlet temps.. but some people drill holes in the vents, others mount the sensor behind then vent..
-
Ah, I get it. What sort of filter do you need for that? Like a filter that joins two tubes?
-
Ah, I get it. What sort of filter do you need for that? Like a filter that joins two tubes?
you mean an enclosed type air filter like a pipercross viper or bmc. you dont really need one like that to run the feed to it but it would work better because the cold air is being pulled from outside the engine bay..
-
The vents you buy just fit in the bumper, i have had 2 sets and i dont use a cold air feed or anything. Winter, its cold in that engine bay!
-
Pm'd
-
Ah, I get it. What sort of filter do you need for that? Like a filter that joins two tubes?
cold air feed pipe just runs to your filter, literally to it. One end can attach to the vent and the other end points at the air intake. You dont need to attach it as such to the filter.
Not sure how effective it is to have a cold air feed?
LL ;)
-
Well i used to run an open filter with a cold air feed and it made a wee difference, but then i ran the cold air feed back into the airbox which had been modified and a decent panel filter in it and the inlet temps dropped loads, i know they dropped because i have my external temp sensor now plumbed into my inlet pipework.. ;)
some people have enclosed cone filters, and these with a cold air feed make quite a big difference to heat soak
-
these still available for sale? probably picking up a mk3 this week / weekend and im interested in these.
-
yeah mate, still got a few sets left.. let me know when you want a set
dicky
-
will do mate. will most likely be next week at some point.
-
cool mate...
bumped up for 4 sets left
-
bump...
-
How would I pay for these?
I have £20, but as a note. Would love to run one up to the intake.
-
you can either pay by cheque or paypal.. you can send cash through post recorded.. although they say you cant, if you put it in a card or something you should be fine..
i dont mind if you wanna risk sending cash through the post, a guy recently did and it got here with no issues, i know in the past people have lost money in the post, esp around this time of year, its up 2 you mate.
Dicky
-
Might put it in my PayPal account.
Sucks, I really want them, but I don't have a Golf yet. My dad doesn't want to do anything to out Golf but parking sensors, but my sisters boyfriends mught want them for his Golf.

Hey mate, is it easier to put these in from the front or back? Couldnt get mine to line up properly :embarassed:
(My car was on a slope so the vents were about an inch from the floor with no access to behind the bumper :lipsrsealed: and it was getting dark.)
-
i put mine in from the front, but i needed to get in round the back to clip them on.
-
Couldnt get mine to line up properly :embarassed:
why do you think i aint got these :grin: :grin:, have a look through the pics and alot dont seem to line up right, im not too keen on that or i would have had a set, i am too picky maybe :huh:
cheers to my man wayne i have his better quality and much better looking FK items on their way
HAPPY BUM DAY DICKY ANYHOW :grin:
-
a lot of them dont look like they fit properly because they havent been fitted properly.. i noticed that i couldnt get them to fit perfectly when i first installed them.. but once i got under the car and clipped them on fully and properly they fit fine...
they do take time to fit and get perfectly... i dont know who wayne is or what fk versions he is selling but judging by how many have sold and how many i have had back i dont think many people are unhappy about the fitment of the vents..btw i havent had one set returned to me yet...
cheers :P
-
dude keep up the good work. Im extra happy with these. i just need to get hold of some ducting and redirect it to airbox.

Could someone please measure the dimensions of the vents for me? I'd love some on my Vento but since Vento bumper dimensions are different I want to make sure before buying.
Thanks in advance :smiley:

They have to be modified to fit the vento bumper... 2 secs ill pm a mate whos fitted them on a vento and see if he has any pics
-
I'm still unsure about getting these?? :undecided: Dicky I will look at yours at the next meet (if your there?) and the price is right :wink:
-
a lot of them dont look like they fit properly because they havent been fitted properly.. i noticed that i couldnt get them to fit perfectly when i first installed them.. but once i got under the car and clipped them on fully and properly they fit fine...
they do take time to fit and get perfectly... i dont know who wayne is or what fk versions he is selling but judging by how many have sold and how many i have had back i dont think many people are unhappy about the fitment of the vents..btw i havent had one set returned to me yet...
cheers :P
FK lower vents are these
(http://img150.imageshack.us/img150/2627/airintakesfkbl6.jpg) (http://imageshack.us)
and fair do, if the reason they dont line up is due to them not fitted correctly....dont see how hard it can be to do that but hey ho :wink: :cool:
-
are the fk ones bond in??? im sure they are..and im sure they are fibreglass not abs..
-
Decided im going to get the vent holes smoothed now :lipsrsealed: :smiley:
-
FK are ABS and they clip/screw in, not bond :grin:
more expensive than yours tho buddy

Could you please paypal gift £25 to bored_welsh_lad at hotmail.co.uk and in the comments include your name and address and username, so I can keep track of whos paid. I will get them out ASAP for you guys then.
Nice one,
Dicky

PMed
can someone please measure the vent for me. im keen to clamp them to my intake duct (like in the photo at the start of this thread) but my ducting's only 3in (76mm) not 88mm like what the poster used.
just wanna know if i can use what i got or i have to buy some new duct.
thanks :)
-
I got 80mm hose and it only just got on. Very tight indeed. Wouldn't want anything smaller.
The vent is not circular but as a guess I would say its 80mm :grin:
-
doh!
thanks :)
-

For those of you who have got in touch and are looking to purchase.

Cheers

pencil me in for them then cheers
-
I have one of those vents not the same but it was to difficult to put s cold air feed in first my horn is in the way and then the chassis leg is in the way i could only go next to the altenator which my hose was to thick for it was on a 8v i was just wondering if anyone has got any idea were to feed the hose
-
undo the bolt of the horn and you can rotate it slightly.
I think it was 88mph that did the cold air feed to his airbox.
Right,
I have just got back to the UK this morning and tomorrow will be heading to the wifes house where the vents are. Will let you all know then.
Cheers
Dicky
