2014 Grey 2.0 Highline Tailgate

Post by Brynt1726 »

Finally got myself sorted with a caddy! After missing out on Hef’s silver tailgate I have finally found my own! Spent the last few months reading through the forum and looking forward to starting to mod this!

You’ll need to cut a couple inches off the gear knob shaft to fit that gearknob mate as usually the shaft will go inside and sit all the way up to just under the badge
Obviously on that style it can’t so it would sit a couple of inches higher if not cut down

I’ve got the same gearknob Image

^^^ looks good. Are they actual Caddy gearknobs or from another VW?? I've got a Caddy 4 and like the look of that.

So been along time since I got to do anything to the caddy. Finally lowered with the ST X kit. Rears where a dream to sort but the coil-overs took a few hours of graft. All in all very pleased.

Next is new alloys still not sure what ones and I have front and rear R32 brakes to rebuild, powder coat and fit.

New caddy / GTE bumper is being made for me aswell.
