All in one SF :)

No, they've changed to having a separate resistor box, as per the pictures in the link that you gave in your previous post :P

Don't worry, that's a positive anyway. Having the resistors in the plastic LED housing is a silly idea... hence why they changed it.

There is a dedicated thread about them here:

Well I have placed an order for these and the carbon fibre trunk emblem inserts but they want $30 for freight so I am asking if they can do something about that before I complete the order

I notice you ordered the R mate, great choice...over the GTI.

Remember to talk to me first before you mod it :D
You know where to find me ;)

Cheers.

Thanks mate. Yeah I'm glad I went with the R. Seems like there's a few R owners in the Northern Suburbs. St Helena is my local too.
No doubt I'll talk to you about modding, I went through 5 full exhaust systems in 12 months with the Evo. Not doing that again.
See you Friday ;)

Fab isn't capable of anything too hard so it must be the easiest job in history!

I think you and Fab should just get a room! Spank each other and get it out of your systems :)

Haha, he's an easy target so keeps me and Adzy amused.

Btw I know how much you want a Milltek system...the UK guys are doing a GB at the moment and the full TBE non resonated system is $2030AUD including insured freight. Have you managed to track someone down with one installed to have a listen :D

WHOAH! That's a great price!!!! Got a link mate? Nope no luck listening to one yet. I've seen a CW R parked around South Melb with a Milltek once before....was so tempted to wait next to the car just to speak with the owner!
