    A few updates but no pics!

    Managed to pick up a complete Mk6 GTi interior, obviously only wanted the front seats. Unbolted passenger seat to find the rails are ever so slightly different. Shame cause GTi seats were one of the first things I wanted to do, but now I don't know if I can be bothered mucking around making them fit.

    I've always found braking in the car pretty average. This should be resolved next month when I put some Golf R front brakes on

    Also found someone to wrap the caddy at a good price. Will be happening in about 6 weeks.

    I imported some seacond hand Touran seat bases from Germany. They are much cheaper than getting then from the UK and the MK6 GTi seats bolt straight on. You don't loose any height. Well worth the extra expense as it only cost me about $250 with shipping.
