Lol, I was surprised as well, they were actually delivered yesterday but I missed it so had them redelivered today. Can't fault Sere motors I ordered them Monday night and I would have them yesterday if I was home.

i just gave a deposit for '11 fl cupra ..will go Monday to pick it up. Would like to know few things...
1) It has done 67k most motorway miles but cambelt not changed yet; would like to know at what mileage it needs to be done usually as it is still under 4yrs( 2.5yrs old)?
2) The spare key for the car is just like normal key. is that ok? my previous car(audi) had both the remote locking keys.
3) Please suggest what all things i should look at before giving final amount?

Thanks in advance

As for the spare key question, you only get one remote key and the other one is just a 'normal' spare key, sucks a bit I know.
Don't know as to what you should look out for, I havnt ungraded to a Cupra......YET :p..
Get a few pics up though ASAP!

Nightbreakers are better, but they don't change the light colour much if that's what you're wanting. HIDs provide much much better visibility, but theres the issue of whether they're legal or not... If you get H7R bulbs then that helps. The ones at ECP look like they aren't CANBUS, which means they'll give an error. The link below are the ones you want. I also noticed that the ones at ECP are 8000k, they're probably a bit too blue and would attract unnecessary attention from plod. I'd go for 4300k (daylight), 5000k (white) or 6000k (white with slight blue tint). Personally I prefer 5000k.

HAD Staging activated via VAGCOM

He also changed the coding for the canbus gateway for the RNS 510, so now I have 5 screens on the highline display; MFD/AUDIO/NAVIGATION/PHONEBOOK/VEHICLE SETTINGS





also have turn by turn instructions coming up on the display if a destination is set

Very very grateful to an excellent fellow SCN member. MJ is a top bloke, good meeting you mate :)
