The rear LEDs are wickedly classy. Really change the look of the rear. Steve kindly fitted these. Love them to bits.
However, my DRLs don't work anymore on Auto. Checked by both Steve and Darren and they say nothing's amiss in the coding. It's fine by me as I hated them on all the time. According to Snoops it's byte 15 that has to be looked at and possibly unticked or something like that. :undecided:
Darren retro-fitted an LED RNS510 and I am still getting my head round it. The VW Premium Bluetooth he also fitted is amazing and works a treat with the Blackberry Bold 9700. Completely seamless. Brilliant.

PS: Get yourself an Ed30 DSG knob/shift. Beautiful. £200! :sick:

Looking at a Xenon retrofit, can source the parts from Germany for £700 including the auto levelers, I already have the winter pack so have the headlight washers.
Looks like a straight swap for the halogen headlight units as the ballasts and motor controls are all included in the headlight assembly. And a bit of coding using VCDS.

1.5 Hours until collection   :laugh: :laugh: :grin: :cool:
