Hi, looks nice, better than the open on in my GTI.

Could you answer 3 short questions please...

1-How much?
2- Where from?
3- does it open enough to allow a charger to be plugged in, such as phone or tomtom?

i bought it off Merlinman (from this forum) I think he said there £75 new from VW.
it just replaced the black plastic cover, so opens exactly the same :)

The r32 gets a metal coloured carbon fiber looking one..

the golfs are just black now.. i think someone said they use to do the silver ones awhile back.. price cuts now..

i hate chromie bits,, but few bits here and there look fantastic, makes it stand out inside and looks more quality.
