Now the centre section is bonded in I’ve bonded and clamped the first side section in.

[mention]Ripley55 [/mention] Mate I used every clamp I could find including a coilover and hammer.
During the night the house alarm went off. Burglars were my first thought. After investigation it was two spring clamps that had sprung off.

Hi Mate,

Thanks

I got it from Power Design in Poland mate.
They are here on eBay and ship to the UK quite often. Take a couple of weeks to come.

Hi chaps.
I just managed to pick this up for £65!
I’ve got a 2010 PreFace lift. It’s a low line spec with the mk5 shape airbag.

Other than the facelift airbag, does anyone know what modules ect I need to get this fitted?
I don’t mind pulling the buttons off if it’s easier to go without? Oh and it’s a dsg wheel, not sure if that will have an effect on it.

Cheers guys :)
