At least another 5 BHP lol,

Seriously I'll let you now more when I've got the thing on the dyno!

For me it's about an exellent overall map rather than chasing BHP but I'll chase the BHP for the fun of it ;-)

Good morning. Bloody clocks!
As p3asa says. Had my cruise retro-fitted by dealer.
Regarding Xenons, the costs are possibly slightly more eg 10% overall. Pain to have them fitted though.
However, I don't have the costs for the latest LED DRL ones which will be available from BW45. Tomorrow is the start of BW44. Costs should be similar.
Congratulations on your new acquisition.

Thanks fella, I so NEED XENONS but I'm happy to not have the self level etc just plug 'em in if its poss as I like the bending lights but I can live without them, but I'd like to be able to adjust the beam.

I NEED BI-XENONS TOO!
Hope you find it helpful.

Ok rather that the over priced full Bi-Xenons have you thoughts about the Volkswagen-Xenon-Lights-Kit-by-Philips with their installation Video:wink:

Doc:

I hope you don't have a fit with the fit and finish of your GTD.

I had to:
(1) Rehang all my doors 3 months after I had the car. They seemed to have moved!
(2) Had the rear bumper replaced as it was distorted in the number plate area. Got VW to pay for it after 105 letters and finally a letter to the MD of VW UK.

Apart from the above, the car is very good, no rattles and very comfortable. However, I have crappy Bridgestone tyres which I will be changing shortly.
