Brought them off eBay for my Octavia but ordered the wrong size. £7.50

Owned my vrs for just under 4 years. All the time I’ve kept it standard. After a bit of engine trouble I took it to aw tuning in Sidcup. It’s now got a stage 1 remap, it’s like having a new car. This made me wanna upgrade the brakes to grooved discs and Ebc pads. Also upgraded the alloys. Next step is to lower it on h & r springs and colour code the grill.

A mate of mine has recently had a new mondeo as a company car. When he picked me up I noticed that in the cabin he has a soft blue light around the dash and in the footwells. I thought that's a nice touch, wonder if I could do that in my car, so where else better to ask but at the font of knowledge.

I have a single din conversion kit, just upgraded to Columbus, have know idea what's it worth.

Just fitted these to my car and I can honestly say they are excellent. The car feels like totally different car with these tyres in both the wet and the dry.

I after the centre air vent, broke mine putting an air fresher lol

Disconnected my single din, and the square black box doesn't match up with the columbus.

My missus bought me a Columbus for xmas, the previous owner of my car had fitted a single din stereo. Just got round to buying a fascia for the dash, but the only problem is I'm trying to locate the right wires and block connector to plug columbus into my cars loom, can someone help me, if not I'm gonna sell the columbus and get a aftermarket stereo for it instead.

Just pushed the boat out and fitted Michelin pilot sport 4's on mine, only done 5 mile on them so far.

i only found about by accident. went down as its only round the corner. Put my car on rollers, only to be told by staff that it doesn't like rolling road, something to with 09's abs playing up, only way round was to pull fuses. id be happy to do another, would be happy with paying a deposit.

Managed to put camera in, wires fed through, just gotta wire in the fuses and I'm good to go. Gonna get me a memory card on the way home tomorrow.

Just got mine through the post today, I have the piggy back fuses so I'm good to go. The only thing I'm worried about is the trim down the windscreen does it come off easy?

So far I've done essex to Midlands (Sutton coldfield) a bit of running round whilst I was up there, the. Down to brighton for a drive in movie, then back to essex 535 miles still got 75 miles in range, quite happy with that, mostly motorways average spend 80/85 mph.

What a brilliant thread, stumbled over this by accident. My hat goes off to you for all the retrofit items.

I'm hoping to get mine fitted with springs.
