.....Had a dual dash cam installed as well =)

Love the colour - would have got my wagon in Indium if they let me

How much did the dash cam cost? Was it a dealer fit?
Cheers

Nice! Did you go from. jazz to the GTI? Won’t know yourself if that was the case... 

YUP!
That's why I was over the roof when I picked up my GTI!

I did some research, funny my dealer happened to change to this brand's dash, they initially offered me a price I think a bit high so didn't take it (that was back in August), then I found out there's an updated model of that dash came out this month, so I enquire about it and offer them a price (incl memory card upgrade, with installation to the fuse box pre-delivery) =) Prob ended up only so slightly more than if I sort it afterwards. Not trusting myself to deal with the fuse box so would have to pay someone to install anyway =P PLUS convenience to have dealer fitted in and have it ready to use when I picked up.

Enjoy !

I do like the contrast between the red trim and the grey bodywork on GTIs, and it seems to work well with white GTIs too.

Yea! And I matched a silver letter on black car plate with it !
hehehehehe

I didn't know the dealers did the cams. What was it called, how much it set you back?

I got the Blackvue DR750S-2CH 128gb card, magic power pro kit, and installed to fuse board. Not a cheap one but I wanted a dual cam system with park mode .

Picked up my MY18 Golf GTI mk7.5 yesterday morning!
opt for DAP and infotainment package!
Placed my order end of June, arrived Melb 12/10, ready for pick up 24/10, but I end up picking up 27/10.
Had a dual dash cam installed as well =)
Waiting for my schedule with Dan for paint correction and protection in a few weeks!!!
Love the red contrasting with the indium grey! (my other colour choice prob iron blue if not grey )

Congrats on the car, looks great!
I'm waiting for Dan as well! I'm booked in in December. Would be great to hear your feedback once done.

Also your car arrived a lot quicker than mine from dock to dealer.

I'm seeing Dan early Dec lol
Yea, was surprised when they called me last week around Friday to organize pick up time lol
Wasn't expecting that quick as I saw people seem to have to wait around 2 weeks. I delayed pick up cuz I was selling my Honda Jazz and waiting for some cash to get in my hands.

I am debating whether to get that euro plate holder out or not.......ummmm

You might be a week before me then! I'm mid Dec haha

I was thinking of doing the booking earlier but then wasn't sure when I will get the GTI back then.....and by the time I book, already Dec schedule! Hahaha
Which paint protection are you planning to get? Opti-coat pro?
