I’ve been really happy with the van since owning and haven’t had any major issues other than the nox sensor failing 2 weeks after running out of warranty at 19k
and me pissing about with the lights on vagcom which was throwing up the rear reverse light error even though it was working correctly. All sorted thanks to [mention]Doc [/mention] 
I’ve had the nox mapped out now as I bought 2, one of which was the exact same code but didn’t fit the mounting points and the second was supposed to be the same code but they sent one with different letters at the end which meant that the cable was about 4” short….. hence having it mapped out
How it arrived.
First thing was to get it wet sanded and polished up
Next it was time to get it signed up for the shop and to get the plate fitted
I used FLS ltd down in Lowestoft for the signage and they were spot on to deal with
I went for the 3m reflective vinyl so that it stood out at night. 
Next on the agenda was to have the tail lights tinted as well as the brake lights and reflectors.
I was warned the tail lights might bubble up due to the recess on them (which they did) but the brake light and reflectors should be ok.
I ended up pulling the vinyl off the lights in the end as it was bugging me
I also swapped the VW badge over to a gloss black one as well, and also had the rear glass to tinted.
I then bought a set of Tiguan Rline seats which I fitted to the original caddy bases, as when I used the Touran bases they sat way too high !
All it took was a couple of holes drilling to each base and a bit of metal taking off the rear of the seat runners.
The seats come with the trays on the back of them which comes in handy when the kids are in the back
The vans original seats had had some aftermarket heated pads fitted, so I used the cables to pin into the elements on the Rline seats. Made more sense to do that then try and find a set of controls and have the looms made up for them.
That was pretty much it until recently when I started buying parts for it
I’ve had enough of smashing the front splitter
so have opted for the alltrack splitter. The van isn’t even that low and it’s catching on driveways, so it’s time for it to go !
I’m planning on having the black abs plastic smoothed and coded to the van and the silver section painted in mk7 gold carbon grey just so that it doesn’t get lost with it being all black.
I’ve also bought some genuine tinted tears to go on, as well as a set of xenons.
I’m also getting rid of the sidebars on the van and have opted for the rdx skirts, as I’ve had enough of the scraping of the bars over speed humps !
I’ve bought a set of non motorised, heated caddy life mirrors as well which will be colour coded to the van.
And [mention]tommyzooom [/mention] has made me some looms up for a heated front screen and the RLS sensor.
I’ve bought the set of controls from a highline to get the screen coded into.
The front heated screen is being fitted on Tuesday and is costing £275 with fittings on it for the RLS
I’ve also got a PTC kit coming and have managed to find an auxiliary heater with code 1K0963235E which will be wired into the canbus ready for those winter days that are coming
I’ve just fitted the caddy life centre console as well.
The van is off up to Matt [mention]Dubunit [/mention]tomorrow for the cam belt and water pump and then it’s off back up to Wolfsburg in Feb to get carpeted.
I’ll hopefully get everything sorted over the next couple of months or so….
