Not sure mate but if you want to sell i'd say put it back to standard, lose the remap and don't mention it and re-fit the OEM lights.

You should get decent money for the LED's separately.

I know it's none of my business, but I am a nosey parker. So, might I ask why you are selling?

Mate if that is the reason then see what else you can adjust before you get rid of the car. You will miss it too much.

Sell the wife, not the car!
Then you won't need to buy a new house. Simples.
As they say in Hollywood: 'Ditch the b!tch'! :shocked:
Just kidding. :grin:

Seriously, you'll get this new house and park a sh!tty car in front of it. So emasculating IMO. :rolleyes:

Still not convinced?

I give up!

All the best. I feel for you. :sad:

Sorry to see you have to sell the motor...sad but if needs must and all that.  :cry:

On the plus side (for me), if you decide to sell the rear LEDs, send me a PM.  :wink:

Anyone know if the remap and switch would be usable on another GTI mk6 thus allowing him to recoup some more cash?

Don't think you can switch maps between cars.....

Hey Illyun

Its a Middle East spec... White (I could have had black, red or silver), leather seats, 5-door, Xenons, 5 doors, rear view camera and RNS 510, front and rear park assist, DSG, 18" Monza Shadows and some other bits that I cannot recall.... all for the equivalent of 21k pounds  :laugh: :laugh:

They are lousy drivers.

A very, very upmarket one would probably be quite a hoot. Trips to the Muddle East not catered for! :evil:

I am Persian, so I know a bit about that region. They are as mad as March Hares. Still stuck in many ways in the dark ages. I think they are regressing quite rapidly. Once the oil runs out, they are well and truly f^cked, especially the Saudis. They might have lots of money now and are spending it like water and most tastlessly. And the language ... Arabic .... assails my delicate Persian ears! :sick:
