Ok, finally June 27th, 2010 update:
Have fitted the black CC a/b/c pillars today. Quite easy job, here's a quick summary.
1. First you need to take off the B pillars. They simply pop out, if you
nicely pull them from each side. However, to seperate them from the seat belts, you'll need to undo the 17mm bolts on the bottom, behind the front seat to remove the belt.
2. A pillars are the easiest. They are held by one screw (you'll see it, when you remove the B pillar), and are simply pull-out/push-in.
3. Aaaand the C pillars are probably the worst. You have to undo the rear seat belt bolts (the bottom ones) as well (a bit fiddly), and also 3 10mm nuts on each side, which are in the boot, underneath the plastic "thingies" that hold the parcel shelf. And also there's another screw behind the B pillar.
4. Oh, and don't forget about the short piece that connects the C pillars at the back. Make sure to align it carefully.
The end result:
I would prefer, if the headliner was black as well, but going to leave it, as that's too much hassle. Apart from that, I love it! Eerhmmm, if anyone needs white a/b/c pillars, let me know lol
Finally got a correct set of Mintex discs and pads, which is the 256mm setup. Not sure, if I'm going to fit them myself or take it to a garage. Depends what quote I get...We'll see.
I like the way the car is at the moment, and not sure what else to do.
Need to buy:
1. Lambda sensor (hopefully will fix my stupid mpg)
2. Front wheel bearings (annoying sound from the front)
Maybe few other mechanical bits, can't remember everything now...
Dreams:
1. Respray
2. 20v 1.8T conversion
Until next weekend...
