Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk No worries. It's actually quite an easy retrofit in hindsight. Just time consuming and requires patience. I bought the kit on eBay from an Italian seller. Cost me 275EUR delivered. If you search for the part number on eBay a few normally come up. If you go ahead, happy to help you with any support you might need. slider09 and Obbzi 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slider09 Posted June 28, 2017 Report Share Posted June 28, 2017 have you got a ebay item number please so i can have a look thanks.Just search for the part number. I'm seriously considering this, VW charge £561 fitted, so it's a considerable saving DIYHow easy was it to route the wires? Door sill trim easy to get off?Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexretro Posted June 28, 2017 Report Share Posted June 28, 2017 From my experience, wiring 5 door is easier than 3 door. I thing VW guide time is 2h30min hence price they charge. Doable in 1h if you know what you doing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
