How hard was it to fit the rear jay

I doubt this very much but does sport mode on my 2017 vrs 230 affect the brakes performance Just someone was trying to tell me there brakes are better(more bite) in sport mode than normal in his 2018 Golf gtd. Iv'e told him it's a place bo mate! But he ain't having it.then I started thinking I hope I'm not wrong! As he's a stubborn little bugger and never wrong.i wanna make sure I'm 100% right first....

2 month in and enjoying the vrs,but I have Spent quite a bit of time lately in the passenger seat, and I'm sure I'm getting to much wind noise from the top of the window, when driving never hear anything from the drivers window.its as if you want to nip the window up that little bit more,or it's windy outside when it isn't.Is this a common problem? Or do I have to go down the dreaded back to the dealer route?...

Thankyou fellas much appreciated...

We are three weeks in with our fl vrs,well pleased with things so far but have a couple of niggles? 1. The windscreen seems to mist up to easy(even in the last hot two days) am I doing something wrong? Heater on low,with windscreen button pressed,along with face and feeton the first light on the heater dial, this is how my mk 2 superb would have been, and I never had this problem in summer before? I have checked carpets ect but everything seems dry. Any thoughts?2. Seem to here more road noise/wind noise from passenger side drives door than the drivers? It felt when passenger I waned to put the window up a little bit more if you get what I mean. Thanks paul
