Looking good fella 👍

Where did you get the GTD style tartan used for the headlining.

Next big job is the heated seat loom and a few extra bits of wiring, ambient lights and carpets in the front and then it will be the outside.. Hopefully get it to paint in a few weeks, but got my eye out for a modified bumper if there is any about.(trying not to break the bank though) :D :D :D

Hi mate sorry a few days late but the part number is 7H0 857 573
As you can see on the pic it’s looks better than the rear view mirror fixing point.

Thanks for that part number.. looks way neater. I used extra long fixings and just fixed it right through, the same as the original.. I reckon there is about 5kg in it but it won’t sag with the extra support..
