Re: New GLI

Yup i got it from theretrofitsource.com
I used Acura TL projectors, and unless you want a ton of headaches i would not recommend them. Yes the output is second to none, but the FX-R's are just sooooo much easier to retrofit without spending months building them

Re: New GLI

Awesome thank you! I've heard that the Evo projectors are really good as well, something to look into for the future I guess. Love the car btw. Keep it up.

Re: New GLI

car looks good!! I have been checking a few times a day for you to finally post pictures of the completed project. All I have to say is, I cleaned the washer fluid jug and I think it really stands out.

Both of you (more so Ryan than Tim) thank you so much for coming by Friday and help me stay on track and helping out. If it wasn't for you this would have been a week long project lol.

I'm excited to see the progress shots Ryan, hopefully they turned out better than my fuzzy after picture :P

Re: New GLI

Looks much better sean. My bay was far dirtier then what yours looked like, now looks much cleaner. Cheers to us for saving two 1.8 bays

Re: New GLI

Looks so much better. Wish we had options like this for the TDI engine bays.

Re: New GLI

What did you do with the fuse block on top of the battery?

Re: New GLI

Re: New GLI

Bay looks clean, props.

Are you putting in a battery cover or gonna relocate?

[MechEngg]

Re: New GLI

Battery is too big for a stock cover and my trunk is already full/complete so i'm just going to run it as is. Doesn't look too bad, pretty clean for a battery IMO

Re: New GLI

Yea by no means did I think it looked bad was kinda wondering if it was an upsize battery as it looks larger. I believe the Tdi covers are larger then the gassers. By larger i mean longer, gas battery is around 625 cca and my diesel is around 925. If you want I could do a quick measure of the one on my Tdi. Again it looks clean as is but just thought I'd throw it out there

Re: New GLI

Thanks for the offer. The other problem would be the retrofits, they come dangerously close to the battery, they are mm's away from the battery so it wouldn't work anyways lol.
Yeah this battery is 650CCa, 850Ca, your diesels are ginormous lol

Re: New GLI

Sean your car has always been one of my favourite MK4s that I've seen! Exterior/bay looks wicked!
