Bought a seat of seats to convert to heated leather recaros. Does the spare foam and fabric have any value/use as I know seat bolsters wear and the foam from a passenger side can replace a duff drivers side cheers for any advice

Got a set of 8l electric recaros with mk4 golf Recaro rear bench if you’re interested

Been a busy boy this week. I now have 1 Fabia and 3 sets of seats. Got myself a set of mk4 golf 5dr recaros and a set of 8L S3 electric leathers. I also got a set of Standard Vrs seats so I can do a in and out seat swap. unsure which seats to go with though

Quite the challenge then. Zoe’s a light car. My 160vvc used to top out on the clock at 140 on the autobahn.

Any update bud

Started a thread about showing my car a bit of love. Bought it at 68k 4 years ago now on 99k. Wife has used it for a commuter and then myself so bit run down just needing a bit of tlc. When it needed new front brakes I fitted some 312’s with VW OE discs and pads. Serviced the car last week. This week fitted some braided lines and new calipers as the front left has been binding. and as little treat it’s had one of these just need to give it a good clean and then work on the prepping the spiders. not the best story teller but trying to keep a log of what I have done

Sounds good buddy. Any pics?

Looks aftermarket maybe someone added the front sensors after it was built. Press the button and then check if the front sensors make noise

I wonder if the car now sits lower the wishbone the levelling adjuster is fitted to is reading that you are lower. Maybe see if the link between the leveller and wishbone can be shortened to compensate

Thanks for the reply Faboka. Think I will probably stick with some coils as not sure on the height I need to drop it to look good and handle so the adjustment that coils offer has swayed me. in other news out some hel lines on the front but they are to short and don’t mount to the suspension strut. So they are useless ordered a set from Mtec to go on. can’t do much with it at the minute as the brakes are now ****e as the mines aren’t secured

As the title. Got some spiders to go onto my car but they are rough. Can you guys post up pics of your cars with spiders on. Looking for inspiration on colour choice as it can be expensive doing the twice lol

Just read from start to finish. Some effort gone into that same level as the red TT QS on detailing world

My thoughts exactly all good buying a lowering kit that drops it 100mm and looks good parked. Still want to be able to use it in anger when needed

Only thinking coilovers so I can close the arch gap when the 17” wheels go on 40mm or less should be enough. Quite rural where I live so don’t see the point in lowering that much you lose all the suspension travel

Cheers for the replies. The car is my commuter so want it to be fun on the road so would you think the white line would suffice. Was looking at the stance ultras any experience of those or better to spring for the AP’s

Hiya bud received your pm. Will reply in there bud

£15 plus postage

Think it was about £40 from TPS. If you do fit a double din you have a small gap let at the top. I have a spare skoda radio blank that i could sell

This is my sph230dab fitted with the extra cup holder on the passenger side

Looks good that bud was it much work?

Same here with the pioneer radio. You need to remove the glovebox so you can get the dab aerial up to the windscreen. I removed the a pillar on the passenger side and ran the microphone upto the interior light as the mic will fit in there.

Hiya bud I know that way of doing it. But if you lower it and do that you can run so wondered if any one could say yeah 40mm with a 40 profile is sound

Hello guys been a member for awhile. It’s now time to show some love to my 06 Vrs. I have some 17” spiders to go on. So looking for recommendations on tyre sizes. cars now nudging 100k so looking to refresh the suspension. Think coilovers in the sub £500 bracket so again asking for recommendations also thinking to add the rear arb brakes are 312mm on the front is it worth the bother to go vented on the rear seats are getting tatty and I have a bad back so looking to fit some heated leathers any definitive guides to do so on here? thinking it may be time for a remap what sort of power can you get on a standard turbo and injectors. Just after a little bit more poke with minimal smoke (Engines a BLT) if that makes a difference also who’s good for a remap in the midlands lots of questions but looking forward to recommendations for. People with actual experience of the products cheers
