Fitted the new heated seat controls as the past ones with aircon button were blowing fuses and doing weird things to my headlights.
Just need to code them now but lost the wiring diagram Tommyzooom sent me for coding. ImageImage
Does anyone know how to activate the heated seats with Vcds please.

Sprayed my front badge black. Aware its not the best job ever, but I had cans of primer/black/lacquer etc in the shed so I went for it. Happy with it so will do the rear nextImage

To be honest it was quite easy in the end - used a sewing needle with fishing line attached, pushed it through a hole towards the top of the pillar and pulled it through the bottom, attached the spreader plates and pulled them back up till they aligned with the holes. Bottom I had to cut the carpet of the left side to get a plate in behind the reel, right side I just got my hand behind the panel

I’m now just figuring out Andre/how to attach the other end of the belt as I think most peoples are going into the arch, but I was a more oem look but not sure if it’s possible

[mention]ViralEye [/mention] thanks mate appreciate the advice as I’m due to battle this task of getting the seat belts in but was worried it would be a pain as mines fully carpeted lol.

It’s hard to explain on text but easy to do so if you come to doing it drop me a message and I’m happy to do a video call and show you how I did mine
