Retrofit of storage pack to Golf VI?
« on: 08 May 2011, 11:12 »
I have been unable to amend my order to include the storage pack to my new GTD.  Yesterday morning the dealer offered free of charge,  to retrofit if its possible and the parts are obtainable. (When it arrives!)

I have read a couple of posts and its seems awkward to do but possible.

1) Has anyone retrofitted this pack that can offer any guidance / advice?
 
2) Has anyone a GTD with black titan leather with the storage pack that could give me their chassis number to obtain the right colour / part number?

What does it include (I'm too lazy to look it up).
The parts will be available okay, whatever they are.
If it's just underseat drawers and something in the boot it shouldn't be any problem for someone with four limbs and a working brain to fit.

ETKA does list the storage pack as an accessory.

The priclist brochure says.

I wouldn't mind the drawes in mine. Had them on a couple of previous cars and they were useful. Luggage net not much use to me though, my boot is either nearly empty or crammed full to the brim.

Yep storage pack as described, a couple of nets in the boot and 2 underseat drawers.  I read somewhere that the net under the parcel shelf is part of the shelf itself and therefore the shelf has to be completely replaced.

Its the two underseat drawers that I would like fitted.  I havent seen these listed as an accessory.

I was in two minds regarding the under seat drawers when I was ordering my car. In retrospect I am so glad I did not order these as the under seat space has been much more usefully used by a sub-woofer and power amplifier. :smiley:

You could've had the amp and sub put in the drawers Asker, then you could slide them out and admire them whilst sat at traffic lights!  :grin:
