Chrome Climatronic & Lightswitch Rings

[bosnjo]

Bosnjo, could you post a pic of them on the black trim?

I will, tomorrow. Just to add, when I ordered those rings from Ebay, I've ordered Climatronic unit from one guy breaking his GolfV, as well. They arrived in the same time and I mounted those rings we're talking about and chrome rings from GolfV climatronic.

As I said, I'll post pics tomorrow, but they may confuse you because now I have double rings and haven´t decided weather to leave it now as it is or to take off some rings.

So, it would be nice to see what other people think.

PS: And yeah, now I have the OFF button as well. Pics comming tomorrow...

There the ones (mentioned earlier) that my dad has on his Touran... I like them - look smart and I think they'd look good on the VRS against the silver trim

Not sure my self...not enough chrome in the cabin to make them look normal. I think they would out of place myself!

now I have the OFF button as well

Does the LED light up? (ie did you change the whole unit, or just pop the button in?)

I was thinking about changing the whole unit but then, it's blue led so I would need to change leds first. Car still has warranty so I don't want to mess it up too much. No led for the time being, just the button.

Sorry mate but that's borderline Ripspeed :thumbdwn:

Oh by the way, they are billet aluminium (not chrome) so do not IMHO look too bling (Ripspeed).

[dstev2000]

Chrome or ally they are still too much IMO.

[bahnstormer vrs]

Chrome or ally they are still too much IMO.

Opinion accepted; no problem. I certainly think, having looked at them today that it WILL be too much with the other chrome rings as well!

[dstev2000]

Just my humble opinion you understand

I've always been ultra careful with all things shiny inside a car.

[djgritt]

Anyone got a pic of the rings from a further distance away?

Ie so i can see more of the dash in the pic...

Thanks Bosjno for posting the pics. They look good against the black.

Do you think having both rings (Golf Climatronic + those surrounding rings) is too much or should I keep it the way it is right now?

Oh sorry, have just found them using the link from the first page of this post.

Just call it overkill :eek:

I have the bornstyle rings for over a year now, combined them with the lighterswitchring, the mirroradjusterring and the caps. The caps however are from another supplier.

His name is Master-of-the-Rings at eBay:

eBay Shop: Suchergebnisse für TEZAL-RINGS.

Also did some other minor changes to my car.

I agree with Mapgo. With the chrome outer rings it looks classy. If the outer dials were chrome too it would look a bit too much against the black.

Just call it overdone :eek:

Thanks for your post. I was missing the ring for the mirrors adjustment. Now, I've just placed the order.
