Not in mine, and it regularly gets jet washed!  :smug:

has anyone removed theirs?

Nope, not me.

if so , how easy is it, screwed on , or is it just stuck on and risky to remove myself?

PMSL - what web browser are you using?  What PDF reader too?  I'm using IE6 and AbobeReader 6, and they are all perfic'  :wink:

I've just downloaded again, and HRH couldn't have typed it any clearler.  :grin:

Oh, BTW, checked again first thing this morning, and I did find a tiny amount of internal condensation.  Had to look really hard, mine dew!  SWMBO has car today, so I'll have another look over the w/e.

Phil on my older MK5 GTI (just traded for the ED30) condensation was always there in the winter months - drove me mad also  :huh:
Only in the warmer weather did it go - never did work out how to take it apart.

It was annoying though - new ED30 hasn't done it yet  :smiley:
