Deep Pearl Black MK4 SWB
Posted: Wed Mar 24, 2021 2:02 pm
Hi everyone,
I just got a Mk4 SWB caddy In deep black in late January.
It’s lowered with 19 inch GTD alloys and a maxton design front lip
So far I have had the seats retrimmed with leather and GTI tartan
Then came the speaker upgrade I mainly done this because I had one bad speaker in the drivers door but I’m glad I did as the VW standard speakers leave a lot to be desired! I opted to use alpine units which when spaced out are very tight to the door card but they fit just perfect - the silver foil added was dodomat sound deading to ensure a complete air seal around the speaker
Next on the list was to get rid of the standard VW radio which I replaced with an RCD360 CarPlay unit it’s a great 20 min upgrade and worth every penny of the 200 euro it cost to have good navigation!
Next on the list was an LED bar which I wired into the headlights for nighttime driving, I went with a Boreman 14” unit the difference at night is unbelievable due to the projector design of the reflectors! It’s also a smoked lens which makes it nice and discreet (just for note it is only mounted on temp brackets until I have the time to remove the bumper just before anyone comments that it isn’t straight)
That’s everything so far but a lot more is planned!
My current plans is a black headliner, ply lining the cargo area, carpet the cab side of the bulkhead and some other little nice touches!
