that could be the way to go  i will get a set after New Year

car had a quick wash down at @CCVALETINGUK in Horbury 

 

 

love car play, touch screen and removable front 

seeing all the audio posts feeling left out 

 

 

 

 

 

Phoenix badges were a perfect fir 

The Phoenix Gold Elite 6.5 components are an awesome sounding speaker upgrade especially with 3 layers of sound proofing and the baffles fitted i'm very impressed

 

 

 

 

sub wise i stayed sensible in a full fibre glass side sealed enclosure , 10 inch sub looks small but is mighty.

i love the idea but was thinking with the 4 inch deep pothole at the bottom of my street i may not be so brave 

mk4 golf r32 brakes are still a great oem upgrade Apec disc and trw pads with oe fittings to the s3 hubs , 280mm rear disc upgrade coming soon once i re-paint the carriers.

the Pioneer avh-z9200 double din got an oem display upgrade too

 

175,000 miles and 20 years old looks pretty good still.

All trims were replaced with genuine including window and rubber seals, mud flaps , roof channels , windscreen trims , door trims , bumper trims , headlamps, indicators including none vrs side repeaters as i prefer them as they match the headlamps and taillights , new front and rear badges but not the octavia one as not a fan , cz stubby mirror adapted on drivers side base , new old stock headlamp protectors etc as well as some milotec parts (front bumper corner splitters and rear diffuser which i fitted on a 2001 rear bumper as it is a slightly different shape to the 2002 onwards item). The r32 Konig seats are getting the vrs white centres trimmed into them too (pics to follow). Mk4 aero wiper arms and dab oe style roof antenna and genuine skoda motor sport plate surrounds.
