Looking nice. Always got a place in my heart for the Cupra 225 as I learnt to drive in one.

Lol I take it there isn't much room for it
Debating on the battery cover, need to get the hose from charge pipe to the intercooler sorted too

its just a case of extending the washer hoses which is a PITA and also there is hardly any room, needless to say your hands will be cut to bits by the end of it :lol:

Right all my hoses turned up so will have a go at replacing a few tomorrow
Just ordered a THS fr3 dogbone ( got a great deal from a guy off edition38 ) as this seems to be the best one to go for, can't wait to get it fitted
Also ordered a s3 coolant bottle, bracket and cover. Not sure if I'll just put it in or cover it first
Had a look on carbon modz website but not to sure what to do with it yet

Where/who did you get the ths dogbone from?

Done a few bits and bobs to the car yesterday

. Fit the shelf that I managed to get off dannyc87
This will be really helpful to tidy the boot up especially

Also finally got rid of the chrome on the seat badge
I covered it in the 3m di-noc carbon vinyl

Sounds nice the dump isn't much louder than my baileys but you do get a nice flutter sound too
Not sure how long I'll leave it on there for

I also have a vibe 4awg wiring kit due to go in with my vibe black air sub and monoblock amp
Have some money floating about in my paypal too so not to sure what I'm goin to treat my self to yet, maybe a stealthboxz

Jon there was one on eBay last week
Should still be on there, yup it's very useful can store all the bits in there to stop it running all over the place

What do you search terms do you use? I never seem to find any. Havent really checked in a couple of weeks, which is why I might have not seen the one you are on about. I tend to go for Leon boot tray/tidy, or parcel. However I always end up with loads of parcel shelves or boot liners etc.

I'll have a look, but if you can PM me a link that would be cool! I could do with a place to store the spare coil packs :p

...like me you're against the clock! :)

LOL! I know the feeling - I didnt spend loads on the car, but I like techiness, so it was things like a nice phone and things like the TV/theatre amp/surround sound/media PC

Get in while you can :) Cos its harder to justify the spend (and I just mean to yourself!) after the sproglet comes along
