AwesomeGTI, however I got my name down for one of the first 10 that were shipped. Doesn't even have instructions because they weren't printed in time! The rest of the units will be readily available around January. :)

Not truly a tuning part but what do people think of these? http://www.navdy.com/ the video is pretty cool but how much would i really use it...

Great find. Fantastic system. I wonder how much it costs. Next car: forget built-in Sat Navs ..... probably.

I see they have a "R version and "GTI" version.....is there actually any difference..?? As both picture on Awesome's website shows a R engine bay. I assume its something to do with the washer bottle position.

How close a match is the plastic to the original engine cover..??

£210 according to website but as it comes from the USA you would then have to add import duty + VAT.

I'm not sure about if there's any difference between the GTI version and the R version. I doubt it. The plastic is a perfect match to the OEM engine cover plastic. You wouldn't beable to tell the two apart.
