      Amazing how well those velour seats wear! Nice pickup!

        I was surprised at how good the interior is. Armrest latch is broken (go figure) and the cupholders don't work, so I'm thinking maybe a 05 center console conversion may be in order in the future. Everything else looks and works great

                What year's it from? The console and armrest I'm not to concerned about, just the busted cupholders so I'd be looking for a console that has those if I do it

                  Well, I've now officially spent as much on parts FOR the car, as I did ON the car itself. VW ownership at it's best

                  Come on Mr. Fedex man, hurry up!

                      Few small things, thermostat, coolant temp sensor, cam position sensor, winter tires, side markers, antenna, things like that.

                      Motor mounts are pretty worn, like snap your neck worn, so I ordered BFI stage 2 mounts, motor, tranny and dogbone

                      Then the struts are all blown too so I ordered Solo-Werks S1 Coilovers.

                      Just 'cause it's slow as hell doesn't mean it has to look bad

                      Now I'm wheel shopping. Keep it cheap, probably XXR 526's.

                      Before I'm happy I'll need to get a new grille, new headlights, and new mirrors

                        Spoken like a true 2.0 owner! Good stuff! We will have to do a 2.0 cruise before mine is gone.

                              I'll probably stick with Halogens for now

                                Thats probably safer due to the fire hazard they represent
