Woow its been a while since a update but ive been taking loads of pics along the way so 1 day i will bring the thread fully upto date.

Now that ive lost abit of weight i thought its only right that the inside gets a lick of paint.

Nice mate!! Did you do the wideband conversion yourself?

No mate, i wish i did have the knowledge to do such work but im learning lol
The best part about this project is that a plug & play kit will soon be available for other fellow Mk3 owners to convert to wideband also with very little work ;)

Do you know who is going to be producing the plug and play kit?
Nice progress mate! Where is it your from?
I'm going to convert to wideband but will hold out to see what comes of this plug and play kit :) I was going to give it a bash myself but I know an angine control relay needs wiring in and I wouldn't know where to start with that.

Yeah if you could mate, that would be handy! :)
Any idea on how long we will be waiting? :)
I like the idea of the headlight for track days. Might do the same with one of my spares!
