Featured Replies

^^ cheeeeers mike :D just to add that rear badge was done with a touch up kit i had from aaaagessss ago and its the only close colour i have to the bodywork all others seem to creamy. :? so ye i dont think that has turned out too bad either :D

the plates will be getting swopped for Uk non banded pressed when I'm driving the car but until then i will get some new stock plates and fasten them on with the tape i used on ma rear badge, will clean the arse end up abit then i hope.

oh and that rear wiper... that will come off as soon as i can get it off :p

hmmm yeh I'm feelin the black mirrors woot

shhhweeeet :p

mate thats looking mint :)

cheers for the comments guys, cant wait to get a nearisde one now and get it fitted :lol:

oh one question, if anyone knows the two wires going to the glass which whire goes where, there is a brown and a white.

i presumed white to be live and brown earth, its for the heated glass i think. i have put the brown on the top and white on the bottom is this right? i didnt no whichone goes where form before as the whole mirror unit is brand new so it came with the glass in a seperate box and the wires taped up. :?

as people no what I'm liek with updates, i just seem to get abit bored and go swop something over :lol: dont be surprised to see me uplaod a pic soon of one stubby mk5 black mirror and one std mk4 whie mirror :lol:

random small update.. i dotn no why i dotn save them all and have oen huge update.. oh well :lol: gives you 24/7 surfers something to look at :p

deloceked the nearside. I've not done the driver side yet as i have keyyed central locking not remote :-( but that will be bought and fitted soon. was an arse fitting the nearside oen though as the haynes tells you to turn the key push it forward then pull out the back.. which i did only to find the locking pin still wouldnt clear!

soooo... off came the door card and i bent the pin and removed the handle after snapping the locking pin in the process :ninja: (at which point i thoguth shit no turning back now :lol:) so fitted the new handle and bent the pin back, job done!
