No problem. If I sort the windows out on mine I'll let you know what it was.

Yes the rub strips and door handles will be colour coded.

What's the difference? I've got the smooth pre primed ones from a Caddy ready for paint.

The touran highline ones are the same as the ed30 ones, with a chrome insert on the top edge. Part numbers are in the "useful part nos" thread. I think they clean up the caddy loads.

Got to admit I was a sceptic on the cross kit to start, but seeing it with the bumper on too looks ace. Top work mate, hurry up and get it painted and get some pics up!! :)

I saw those rub strips after I bought the others! But I still think I prefer the plain ones as otherwise the sides could become a bit fussy.

I'm going as fast as I can! Now I've got the last bits of Cross kit I'm going to crack on as I want to get it to RAD for some magic! The rear bumper could be the bit that holds me up and I've still got a dilemma with the de-badged grill. I'd like to be finished by the end of July and in paint for August.

Weird. They worked fine at my VW commercial place and they're the numbers off the boxes the switches came in!

Here's a strange one. Since replacing my window switches, the drivers side has stopped working unless I press and hold the key fob unlock or lock button but the passenger side now works from both passenger and drivers side switches. Any ideas?

Doubt it as it was doing something similar before swapped switches - passenger side wouldn't work from drivers switch.
