    Incidentally, are VW dealers happy to sell GT/GTI parts to a basic Golf owner, I've read stories about dealers wanting VIN numbers etc?
    Dealers want VIN numbers for everything down to an oil filter - it's the way their computer system works. If you want something non-stock, it's best to walk in with part numbers

    It's a manual so not susceptible to mechatronic failure.

    Love Poyta's enthusiasm for his work!

    Hey Poyta,

    Was the steering wheel change straight forward? Are there any precautions one should take regards the air bag exchange?
