KodKod what milage is yours? That drivers bolster is looking in pretty good condition. Mine has done 116,000 miles and the material has not worn through but is showing signs of age and the foam has sunk. On the look out for a cheap standard GTI passenger seat so I can repair mine.

Recently fitted some new side skirts from the dealers look much better but not that cheap think about £65 for the pair.

Mileage is 95k- the bolster is showing a little wear- small tear in it but doesn't bother me that much.

The skirts are next on my list as the plastic is going to come off sooner or later.

Like the metal door triggers too- is this an easy mod?

Yeah, I seem to remember so.
Mk4 cabrio triggers, straight swap into a Mk3.

Reducing my Golf count by the week....

Sorry about the huemungous pic, dont know how to make it smaller lol. Bought her for the grand old price of £500... yes... £500, when I went to look at her she was running like a dog and no one had a scooby what was wrong...and then, after browsing this forum, was enlightened by the ECU Relay, got a new one from VW.. And Bobs your uncle, ran like new :)

Thought it was about time I added some pics/details of my 8v.

Lowered on Jom coilovers, de wipered at rear, Vento fronted, flocked dash, twin cold air feeds, pipercross cone filter/induction kit, Mark 2 GTI gearbox, performance cat and stainless twin backbox, black headlining and german style pressed plates. Apart from that all standard  :grin:  The only addition yet is the Lenso BSX rims I purchased this weekend which will be added this week and pics uploaded. That will start to take it away from the standard look which upto now I have been trying to stay close to. Anyway some pics:
