Looks great!

This reminds me of a mk2/3 Golf GTI! think it looks better black rather than colour coded.

Front bumper will be my custom Golf R/Touran hybrid, colour coded along with all the other black plastic bits.

Re: My Caddy 'R' build thread
Here are the new updates.
Window buttons with the brushed aluminium trim
N/S 5K0 959 855 B XSH:

O/S 5K3 959 857 B XSH:

And the brushed aluminium mirror switch
1T2 959 565 H XSH:

I also uncovered a plug without a connection coming from the n/s mirror (black one). I'm assuming this is why I'm missing DAB.

Re: My Caddy 'R' build thread

Seats look awesome, the cloth keeps them in check with the style of a van.
Just out of interest where were the subframes for the seats bought from and how much?

Re: My Caddy 'R' build thread
PhotoPete - I'll check mine are working now as my passenger side only opened from that sides switch. If it isn't working still then its likely something else is not working. Wouldn't want to sell you some dodgy parts! They weren't very expensive from VW to be honest. The switches come as seperate little modules you plug in. It might be like me there is a fault somewhere in the electrics and not necessarily in the switches.

F6 rad - seats and Recaro subframes were from Recaro but I ordered from GSM Sport Seats Took months for them to be made and shipped but supposedly thats normal for Recaro!
I also managed to collect the last remaining Cross parts so I now have a full kit (minus the bits I won't need for the front and rear bumpers) so I started to shape the front bumper where the arches finish. Think the plan is to bond the arches to the bumper permanently and then fill the join to the section I've been working on.

Re: My Caddy 'R' build thread
Someone else has PM'd me re switches.. So no need to check yours. Fingers crossed its just that I need to sort!
Looking forward to seeing this all painted up bud it's looking nice all ready. Guess you'll be colour coding the rub strips too..
