Re: Maxi life build
So tonight I changed my door switches ..my passengers door one had fallen apart ..
Removed switch holder and found even the holder was broken so I improvised and used a cable tie in a figure of eight around new switch and holder which did the job nicely
So moved onto the drivers door and used my trim tools to pop the handle off
All back together and working

Which LC pads did you end up using?
Be interested to know as we both have soft paint and I'm going to be giving mine a full paint correction soonish...

Re: Maxi life build
Yes window ones work just as vw intended ...pleased with quality look of light switch ..I had a genuine one in my mk5 golf and tbh you can't tell any difference
