What have you done with your Polo so far (and today)

[GraveDilute]

Yep, the seller is in Spain. There's another one who comes up from Poland but they are about $20 more for the same thing (exxy postage costs).

Having a look at the install threads, it's really a matter of being careful and taking your time. I used to sell car navs, so poking around with the stereo, ripping out panels, etc doesn't scare me.

The only real tool you need for the install is the Ross-Tech. This allows the unit to integrate with the MFD and audio system
I'm sure that someone locally would be willing to assist for a carton of ale and a spin in a GTI. Surely?

Hey Guys,

My Candy white, 5dr GTI arrives on Friday morning

I know alot of you guys have purchased your RNS510 from Lithuania - Can anyone supply a link? I would really love to buy one, they just look so rad!

I have a question...
Has anyone either done, or recommend, a custom air intake for the Polo?
I want to look at a shielded pod since there aren't any high flow panels listed on K&N yet.

Anyone bought from KUFATEC they seem good on the web page but not the sharpest tool in the shed when I emailed them.
Can someone give me the thumbs up or otherwise ...

RNS-510 from the "Lithuania guy"

Some people recently seem to have had issues with mounting tabs being bent but I certainly had no issue with mine.

I took a leap of faith (or stupidity) and decided to buy this iPod interface cable. This cost me less than $40 delivered - the VW cable was more than $100. Will let you know whether or not it works.

Huge purchase risk here at $2 a corner!

he boredom associated with delivery is becoming expensive. Mmmmm maybe we need a new thread about stuff you've bought for your Polo before you even have it?

Nice one, make sure you take before and after shots of it installed.

On another note i got some ROH wheels in black used for FREE *yes free*!!, need to get them sandblasted and powdercoated black

Also has anyone installed the K&N airfilter on the 6R yet?
Thinking of getting that, what do you think?

I don't suppose you would be able to post a couple of pics of the before and after shots of the lower control arm angle? This was a problem on the Mk4 golf that too much lowering made the car handle like a dog due to flattening out the angle of the control arm. The GTI will be 15mm lower already so I'm waying up if lowering goes on the list of mods
