so then came the task of trying to fit the rado rear bench,
i thought it was guna be proper hard coz i read some guides on fitting em to mk2s but the jetta made it easy for me

that needs to happen!

Even Snoopy couldn't shoot that down!! Looks great!!

nice looking dubs there

Thats looking tough mate, love the choice of wheels and the stance. Keep it coming with the updates.

pics looks good man .......... what did u do with the seats?

wiggy, i take it your refering to the rear bench! looks good doesn't it.

Jettas we're built to share/custom fit Rado parts

rear seats pretty much dropped in!

are you selling the passenger front seat would be very interested depending on condition!! maybe even the whole interior depending on price! if its going if not front two seats

Lookin' good man!!
I actually like the Golf front on yours
I presume the Zender sports (car park pics) were a tad wide!?


p.s.....What's the old driver's seat like ?(Another seat vulture- sorry)

sorry seats are sold

and it wasnt that the zenders were too wide, i just wanted to change the look of the car a bit:) and iv always fancied tuebos:)

Those Zenders will pull big money on the bay..................and make me gutted as the price rockets

hello sorry i havnt been on in a while
iv been a little bit busy

to cut a long story short... heres some pics

the road to elsecar begins...

re-fitted the OE black vinyl on the door pillars
