Black is Best
« on: 04 May 2007, 20:30 »
Let's try it this time....hope this works.

It's a 56 car with sunroof, ipod armrest, BBS CH, road angel, harmon kardon ipod thingy, Sony Ericsson bluetooth car kit with audio mute and sound thru speakers, retro fitted nav - Thanks Ebay

What do you think?












Next stop - Revo re-map, maybe lowering a couple of cm (I do like the way Edition 30s sit).

Great looking car. Black is a great colour - just takes that bit extra effort to keep it looking good.
Can I ask about your Sat Nav please - did you buy from an ebay seller - did you get dealer to install and did it come with all the
necessary bits and DVD etc

Cheers

Yup, it's a pain to keep clean. I had a white one for 5 days but it had an engine fault and i threw it back at them.

I got the nav off and ebayer called dj.kolia  - quite a good guy, helped with technical questions etc. I got the unit, a new GPS antenna and a copy of the UK map disc. (although you can easily get a genuine disc for £80-£100). It is a straight install as all the relevant wiring/plugs are in place in all mk5 GTIs. I have a bluetooth car kit and ipod thing intalled as well and everything works great. It's better if you have the Highline computer as you get directions on the red diplay between the dials but it's ine if you don't. I took it to my local ICE experts and they installed it in 1.5 hours for £50. Easy peasy.

Looks very nice, I should be getting a united grey 3dr next week so will post pics for comparison.  :grin:

Had to cancel Black 5dr on order from allbrandsnew as they kept inventing stories about wheel corrosion (on a new car?!) and putting the delivery date back.  :angry:
