Thanks for the reply mate, and I would of if it was indigo blue, but how much you after? I could spray it after all


Do you know anything about the locking problem I'm having?

Soon as I lock the drivers door it doesn't open again until I break back into it, is it because I got the wrong lock mechanism it's causing it to lock down?

"Are the locks the same?"

Though they look very similar, the locks have different parts numbers on vagcat, so I'd say no.


Build thread clicky

Problem sorted now :)

Took my car to a VW breakers near where I live, he got a spare barrel and cut it to my key, 3 hours labour and new bits and pieces that were missing from behind my door card all for 90 quid, well worth it   :cool:
