If you sell it in parts can i take the dash surround off you? ;D
mines cracked just above the sterio and looks crap.

Post by: JezGTI on 03 December 2003, 10:36

If he isn't breaking his Golf you can get a stereo suround from GPC for about ?14.  Got one last week myself (same problem), original VW part too.

Title: Re:What do u think?
Post by: Blue MK2 on 03 December 2003, 10:55

I think that my car had previously been broken into because i saw glass inside the door, scratched locks and the sterio surround is broken.  >:(
