I'm sure RubJ has already told you PAS setups and Electric window gubbins are a must.

... it's turned into a fashion show for poofters.

And electric mirrors too. Weighted gear shift rods (mk3). Door pocket speaker grilles.

why a g60 one? my gti one is a space saver.

you will also need the boot carpet.


Scrappys are the way to go. Everytime i ring a ''specialist''  they never have the part i want or its over priced.

Basically a spare wheel that has the resemblance of a frisbee, reason beign the GTI spare wheel well isnt deep enought to hold a proper size spare without bulging the carpet.

U takin the piss eh?  :grin:

Its a bit late, but heres my short list:
Variable intermittant wiper relay from a MK3/Passat (#99)
Early Passat/Corrado leccy mirror loom/motors & switch will also fit, look for the square switch in the door. Glass is different though.
Early Corrado/Passat leccy window loom has auto open/close too, very :cool: Again, look for switches mounted in the door card.
MK3 black washer piping, looks much nicer than manky yellow MK2 stuff
Fiat punto rear wiper arm, smoooooth
MK3 stalks if you have a 90 spec MK2
Tinted interior light, rare :)
Late MK2 hard plastic scuttle trays
