I would've added more fun to drive in that list but that's me.

LOL. If you keep telling yourself that, it will become reality

Re the washers, meh, on the XT I just put a valve on the tube but I am guessing the dub will throw an f'ing code

Eventually, I converted the headlight washer container to an IC sprayer (as a lot of Subie guys do)

Can anyone give me a fair price as to what I should sell my factory 19" silver Golf R wheels for? Someone contacted the
dealer where I got my car from and is wanting to buy them. Dont want to rip him off or short change myself. Just wheels,not rubber.

Earlier posts such as this suggest they could be as much as $1500 each. My advice would be to call a dealer spare parts line, find out how much they are each, and then offer them at half that cost or something.

Probably 1500-2000 is a fair price.
Bear in mind they aren't performance oriented wheels (i.e. Oz, Enkei etc) so your only selling point is that they are OEM which only really helps for resale.

Save your time, they're around $1200 from spare parts.

Given the vast range of high(er) quality wheels available after market, to think someone will pay $4k for a set of OEM wheels is ludicrous. Though there is an idiot born every day as they say. $500/wheel is the absolute peak IMO.
