Got one of these in black



which is normally for carrying helmets, but can be used in the trunk of an everyday car, for transporting various things, like tools, umbrellas, i-pads, jackets, and it has anti-slip material so as to not move when driving.
Very clean, totally suggest it.​

So time for some more maintenance work today.

First of all let me show you the SPARCO helmet box I was talking about.



Very clean and tidy - love it.

Now, an issue I noticed is that the left side of the speakers wasnt heard as well as the right one. So off went the door card again with no second thoughts to find out what was happening



HERTZ unit revealed



And also some searching behind the head-unit, reveilled a bad connection from the past



All done,, re-installed, and ready for our next case to solve - Reverse light wouldn't go on, when reversing, and what is more, my park-tronic system was not working



Changed the bulb, checked the park-tronic wiring for cuts, even changed it to be sure, bought a new OEM reverse-light switch, installed it - yet nothing. So it was time to go around the car to find out where the bad connection was . . .

No bad connection here



No bad fuse



Nothing on the passenger side too



And, what do you know, we have a winner



OEM wiring gone bad through time. Made a new perfect connection and wrapped everything with my favorite Tesa fabric tape so as to be sure in the future.

What do you know . . .



It works.

More to come guys - Cheers :)

So went to the stealership for some more shopping today, second time I am buying this thing - well worth the money for its oem quality though -nothing cheap here

Here it is



Along with the VW Badge



Going artistic



Carefully removed the GTI badge so as to modify it



As well as the red stripe



Removed the "I" easily with the heat gun, almost no glue residue left



I then prepped the parts that were to be painted, the VW badge, the GT one, and the stripe



Audi approved the whole procedure



A hint of the colour I went with


Time to remove this grille





Cleaned the inner bumper part



Stripe installed on the grille - looking good



Badge modified too



let's see how it came out





Yummy, looks like a win to me



Cheers :D :D :D

holly shit! τι λες τώρα? i feel kind of silly i dont know a shit about this A4. i wanna see the progress of the GT. Καλώς ήρθες Μιχάλη!

No worries, I try to keep it low profile in Greece, didnt want to present it in any magazine I had the chance. I prefer to show the car in foreing fora around the world.

More more more more more. I love your Golf build so far man!

Cheers :)
It gets way better, trust me :biggrin:

So, another issue I wanted to address is to clean my leather interior a bit.

So I got armed with this new product from Andy @ Dazzle LTd



The results from cleaning were a bit more than impressive





Tomorrow I want to have another pass at them to further enhance their being soft and cared after, cause I want it to stay like new



On another note, I found a way to protect my alcantara steering wheel of my Audi, while not using it -



hmmmm....



LoL - works perfectly



-dont mind the floormat, it will be changed :p:p

Cheers​

hey guys, I am happy you like it.

If anyone wants any things from the Golf, or the Audi too, let me know, I have tons of things in stock and no free space to put them these days. So I have more than 100 listings on ebay. Username is mikedoctor, so if anything , just let me know or look for yourselves.

Now let me upload another update, cause you seem to like it as much as I do . . .
