Sydney/Canberra VCDS cable

[Mysticality]

Hey, all!!

I picked up my Octavia RS TDI wagon on the 23rd and have been reading on various forums that you can enable certain things via a VCDS cable/software package thingo...
Cornering fog lamps and LED parkers/interiors would be great.

Is there anyone in Sydney/Canberra area that is willing to loan me the system to do so? Or help me out?
Fully compensated, of course.
I live in Bowral, NSW, if that helps any. XD

Alternatively, I could always spring for the cost of the cable/software and offer the service to other people... Just putting the feelers out to see if there's anyone already doing that.

Regards,

If you find yourself in Sunny downtown Campbelltown over the next couple of weeks you're welcome to sing past and have a play with my setup.

I'm not an expert by any stretch, but if you have already looked up what you need done and know what modules to turn on/off you're welcome.

That sounds absolutely excellent.

How about next Friday?

Beverage/Note colour of choice?

You talking the 30th or the 6th?

30th, preferably, as pay day is 28th, (Today, I suppose), but I have some things to do today and its an anniversary tomorrow. (Which the better half will kill me for, if I miss it. XD )

[The_Hawk]

As it turns out I am heading to Featherdale with the kids this Friday, although I will probably be home after 3pm. Otherwise I am available today, tomorrow and Saturday morning.

I'm not after any payment, just happy to spread the love so feel free to drop by anytime.

Great day. Everything works perfectly, thanks to the 'expertise' of The Hawk!
Props to him for doing such a fine job.
