If you fitted one of them wooden ones your car would look like a boat.

Gash that looks ace man

i have a audi Dash too, was in two minds if to fit, is it a hard job ?  any more pics ?

complete ball ache lol

il try and get more photos tomorrow for you.
width wise is good but the length of the dash is too long so needs cutting, centre console needs cutting, door cards, A pillars need extending, need either support beam from an a3 or modify the mk3 one so the centre dash fits. and the wiring for the clocks (but i assume because yours is a 20v maybe easier

cheers brother. i can get the support beam as the dash is still in the Audi at the mo.

Can you not run it with the MK3 door cards ? and when you say A pillars need extending what do you mean ?  the VW ones?  how did u do this ?

cheers man

I have the standard Anni steering wheel but wanted something a bit more up to date, so I went for a MK4 leather wheel, modded to fit the MK3, which has a nice big grip compared to the standard wheel:




But I now have a Lupo GTI wheel instead (as it has leather and red stitching to match the Anni's looks.



MK4 is for sale by the way. £50 posted. :afro:

is it an a3 your going to take it out of?
well when you close the door the door cards push against the edges of the dash, the under tray/fuse cover, and glovebox wont fit properly unless some of the door car is trimmed.

and with the a pillars, on the audi dash there is a gap either side where there a pillars line up, its too big for the golf so need to basically have them come out more, im putting tweeters there to fill the gap.
