    Who fitted it for you?

    Ask him where he bought it. Most AU based sellers can recomend a fitter. They aren't hard to change as a DIY either. Learn from youtube & forums.

    LHR and RHR Lock actuators replaced at VW Ballarat. I really wanted to install them myself but don't have the time to fix in case I stuff it up.

    LHR #7L0839015D $250
    RHR #7L0839016D $276 (not sure why different?)

    $865 installed.

    Painted the background behind the badge silver to match the car:





    Painted the emblem Black:


    Then decided the other badges need to come off:

    Mine: -MK5 Golf 2.0TDI[Deiselgeek sigma 6 shifter + H&R 50mm lowering springs + GTI Tartan interior + Audi 18x8 A6 wheels(Dark Steel)]
    -MK1 Golf The re-spray/re-build
    In the family: -MK5 Jetta 2.0TDI, -9N3 Polo TDI, -6R Polo TDI, -Mitsubishi S^$&box van
    A pattern seems to be forming...

    I did nothing to my mk5 today. She might be feeling neglected, she might throw a fault if I keep it upWhat did you do to your Mk5 today?

    Did a few things in the last few days.

    Plasti dipped front and read badges, and the red strip on the grille.



    I polished the headlights using Meguiar's Headlights Restoration kit, and polishing pads which I attached to a cordless drill (has much better results than doing it by hand). Also added yellow fox light covers.





    Oh I also fitted a Votex Replica Lip which I got from Hennessy Auto Styling. Really good service from these guys, and the lip is good quality and good fit as well..



    And I also became a VIP member

    MkV GTI 2008 MY09

    - 80k service + timing belt and water pump replacement
    - new set of Michellin PS3

    A few unexpected expenses but all quality work done. Should enjoy much better grip over the winter months.
