Woohoo. Have put deposit today for a 90TSI today. Extras include united grey metallic, sunroof and park assist.
Only when I got home I realised that there are some things I forgot to ask the dealer, such as paint & internal protection as well as tinting.
Am I better of getting the dealer to include those or after market?
If off market, got any recommendations on who to go to in Sydney for Golfs?
Any inputs on what to get for a newbie is much appreciated :)
Welcome to the Golf club! Good to see another 90 out there :)
I didn't realise that the 90 can now be optioned with park assist.. Are you sure it's not just sensors you ordered?
To answer your question, I HIGHLY recommend going after market with the paint protection and tint. You will save money and get better quality in both the product and labour.
Tints I would give Rob a call from Hunters Hill Window Tinting, a lot of the Sydney guys on here have had their cars done by him. His contact details and pics of some of his work are here: http://www.vwwatercooled.org.au/foru...tml#post667779
For paint protection I'd contact David from Reflect Effect, he's a good guy to deal with. Very professional.

+1, the VW Paint protection is a bit of a rip off :)
You might also search for some of the options/accessories that you didn't tick on eBay, as you'll find a lot of them a lot cheaper (i.e. RNS510, 9W7 Bluetooth, MDI, sports steering wheel, etc)
Welcome to the 90TSI family :)
Not sure about options either. When I bought mine the only option was comfort pack or not, manual or DSG. I don't even think the sound system was an option....might be wrong.
FINALLY received my R today after waiting patiently for 8 months! 'Wow' says it all.
Can't wait for it to get Opti-coated this Sunday by Mark at freedomcarcare and have the layers of contaminant and dealer applied crap off the paintwork. Disappointingly the right reverse light doesn't work - didn't check it in all the excitement at the dealership....
It only has one reverse light my friend... don't embarrass yourself by taking it back
OH yeah I forgot .. respect for waiting the 8 months.. congrats it is a great car
Right side is fog light only.
I think I have already embarassed myself by mentioning it in an open forum! Is did a VW/ European thing?
Pretty much, I think the American version is different and it's not too difficult to change it with an oversees part and some wiring (consult the ADRs first).
There's a thread about it here somewhere, just search.
