Oh yes defo for some reason it's a lot quieter

Just seen this thread Paul, cars a credit to you,   :clap: silly they dropped the sound deadening under the bonnet for red caliper Petrol vRS . Maybe get some chrome on inside ? 

 

One other point are you using silicone based leather cleaner on your steering wheel as its very shinny, silicone will dry out and crack leather  

[Paulbrown]

Those look really good!

Are they the parts you were talking about at the VW show?

Quite like them

[blueR36]

Yes Ive replaced mirror switch on mine as well 

and that replacement light switch

You need to get rid of your chrome grille 

[Paulbrown]

[ChrisRs]

Nnnnooooo man

I love the chromeness

I did too, when I had my Octavia

Hate black grilles as well

[Wardy]

Be boring if we were all the same

 

FWIW, I thought the colour coded grille on my Black Magic Octy was one of the best mods I did

Black and chrome and silver wheels. Looks the biz.

Small update tonight

Fitted Cree leds to the rev lights and WOW

So much better

Pics don't really do it justice

[Discoda]

Nice. I've been looking into some LED reverse lights, what ones did you go for?

[J306TD]

Wow they are BRIGHT

These ones!!!

Really impressed with them

[Discoda]

Ordered, if they don't last long I'm blaming you! Worth a punt for a tenner. Would be nice to see where I'm reversing as I tend to work a lot of night shifts.

[Paulbrown]

That's why I upgraded

Like I said I am impressed (but other LEDs are available)

[dakar]

great find mate,gonna order a set myself

Hence why my rear bumper looks like this now. Car park no lights

Ooft nightmare.

I'm glad it's not just me that finds the stock bulbs dull, thought I was being too pernickety.

[Paulbrown]

Updated engine mount
