I have fitted mk4 seats, mk4 wooden gear knob, momo 300mm wheel. Changed all my cream carpet/ plastics for black.

Others have changed the LEDs in switches/clocks etc for different colours

On my old golf I had a purple pool ball gear knob and purple stitching on my gaiters to go with my steels.
My current golf has anni seats and lots of carbon wrap!  :smiley:

The hardest part of doing the headlining is actually recovering it. Taking it out in one piece is simplicity itself. Remove the grab handles and sunvisors, prise the a,b and c pillar trims away (Don't be scared to do this, they're just a push fit to the car), also remove the light unit and finishing trim around the sunroof if you have one and pull it out of the car, It's that simple!
I tried to recover mine yesterday but made a right mess of it as I used material that was just to thick and it just wasn't malleable enough!
