Well after reading the horror of a fellow mk4 golf owner having their car broken into on sat on here i got straight onto ebay to try and source a kit for my mk4 GTi i managed to get a brand new genuine vw kit for both my front doors consisting of the metal blanking plug,metal disc, and outer blanking cap profesionally sprayed reflex silver for £15 + £1.50 p+p each total steal so paid the buy it now price of £33 :grin: :grin:.....well they turned up today in dealer bags and dealer stamp on bag from the vw sprayshop........anyway they looked A1 and in perfect condition :cool: i sat down and re-read the R32OC guide to make sure i knew what i was doing and set about fitting them well 30mins later and both delock kits have been fitted :wink: it makes the car look so much cleaner and smoother and adds ooddles of extra protection aswell plus was a total doddle to fit :laugh:..........no pics to hand at mo but will post up some at weekend

u must mate but make sure you get the metal disc in the kit (as some kits DON'T inc it) as thats what covers up the slot which enables the door to be opened if for some reason the thief breaks of the blanking cap :cry:....if they do they've no chance in getting in if the disc is fitted as its glued over the slot and a perfect fit and as its resest in so would prove difficult to remove with a screwdriver etc :laugh: .......i stuck the disc to the end of a marker pen with some chewing gum and guided the disc into the hole and pushed it in til the glue held.........piece of pi$$ :laugh:

The only problem is......... what if your car battery dies ??? how do you get in to pop the bonnet ???

I like the look of de-locking but both my key fobs stopped working the other day so had to get in the car with a key. I have now reset the keys and they are fine but if i had delocked would have been a pain in the arse climbing through the boot !
-
I got a de-lock kit on mine but no metal disks to glue? I had the covers which i sprayed and two heaved duty copies of the shape of the lock, the silver cover clips over and then you mount the whole thing in. Different kits i guess, mine took 5 mins lol.

Hi
Just thought I'd help out fellow MK4 gang...
These chaps on ebay accept £7 per kit (i.e £14 for both sides) + delivery.
Just click make an offer.
And best of all they are genuine VW with the precious metal cap that is essential!
Still have to spray them yourselves though ;)
