Jeez those wheels were in a state, be good to see them looking all fresh and spangly again.

tell me about it. everyone was saying "sharki you need to sort your wheels out, they are letting the car down!" so off they went.

minor update, fitted ONE leather door card (front pas) well it took me all day as i got stuck. after pulling the half of the car apart (found a wire chopped for the alarm) so tried to sort that out while trying to find the best feed for the door card ligh, at the end connected it to the window motor (red/white & brown/white) (this is on the pas side) as that had cocstant power and worked with the switch. will upload pics.
yesterday i picked up a mate of mine (ozzie bizzle) and he was like WTF its like you have a spot light in here (LED's that i got of him) was funny seeing his face.

anyway will be uploading a pic of the door card and some more of the wheels (when i get some)

bit of an OLD update.

decided to take the drivers seat out and fix it up as it was f*cked!! both bolsters on the drivers was mashup (top & bottom)

anyway i got an anniversary pasangers seat from a guy that breaks mk3's
stripped it down

gave it a quick rinse:




reinforced the bolsters:












added some padding (foam)







thanks to mad4vw's he put it back together for me :cool:

How did you get the light wired in for the doorcard mate? My new leathers have these but obviously not wired in.

piece of p1ss.

well atm i have only the passangers door card on. i connected my door card light wires to the window motor loom, look for the brown/white wire, which is the negative. red/white which is the possitive. conntect the pos to pos & neg to neg. make sure all other doors are closed and press n release the door switch light should come on when the switch isnt pressed and off when pressed. thats all i can tell you for now as i still aint had a look at the drivers yet, but when i do i will make a note of which wire to splice into.

Oh right so both the wires for the courtesy lights are already inside the door from the switch on the pillar?

no they aint unless you have a highline. i tapped into the wire that goes to the elec window motor. i basicly stripped the wire back abit and connected to it if you see what i mean. (burned abit of the wire and peeled it back to expose the wire)
