After toying with the idea of buying a vrs Octy and even spent some time thinking about another Furby vrs ive finally decided to keep my Octy Sport.

I recentley managed to reverse into a wall and damage the rear bumper and after being quoted

Well the dealers just phoned me up and in the words of Janice (sorry Friends fan) O - MY - GOD - Another

!!

Have a word with VRStu about cruise, he may well be your man for this

Edit: btw, I believe the bumper construction is different on a Sport as it has an addition skin IIRC. Have you checked to make sure the new one you have is compatiable?.

Cruise should be easy, its just a new stalk and loom plus telling the ecu you have cruise control.

Parking sensors, you could buy the kit and do it yourself as the holes are already there.

Did the dealers tell you that a new steering column controller was required? That would be the only reason for it to be that expensive. What year is your Octy Sport? Do you have access to VAG-COM?

There is no loom required for Octy II although older cars will require the addition of a single wire, most have it from the factory. It is however a bit of an art to fitting it on the Octy II as the Steering Controller has to come off.

I have done a fair few now so I can help out if you are stuck.

Edit - Octy II Parking Sensors are BEA 609 001

It was Sunday, no dealers open and I didnt want to miss the sale so I just dived in. But I tried to study what pics I had to see what the differences were. Even if I have to buy some bits to go behind - it must surley fit somehow and work out cheaper than a new one which would need painting.

Check out the pics which I based my science on:rofl:

Forgot who owns the blue vrs, hope they dont mind me using the pics.

Personally I'd take a trip to chateau Stu and have the lot fitted for considerably less.
