£2700 :eek: would hope they're all genuine parts with the aluminium bonnet for that price... and if they are the front will be too wide for our cars without some faffing about anyway.
 
  1. HID upgrade 5000k or 4300k
  2. RS4 rear ARB
  3. Twin exhaust
  4. Leather interior
  5. Double din conversion if you have a single
  6. Cargo net and hooks in boot
  7. Auto boot opening on saloon.....great feature!
  8. B5 front spring perches
  9. 312mm brake upgrade if you have smaller
  10. B7 remote fob conversion
DONE! :)

Hi MikeM,

Any links to no_6 or was it a simple custom thing?

I would love no_7 any links for this one too?
 
Im obviously late on Aero Wipers, but what its good for?

Silent wiping? better coverage? Would you all recommend Bosch only?

Just so much better! Silent, no jumping, smear free. Basically they don't p**s me off! Have only ever had Bosch blades so can't compare to others.
 
Yeah, to be honest I only got them because the car was foolishly left in a dodgy area and some **** snapped the metal in half, but they're much better at removing every trace of rain (hard to explain but theirs no smearing or any trace of water left after each wipe), they also look allot better and don't seem to be prone to face corrosion like the originals were (or mine were anyway, didn't look pretty and I wanted better but didn't have a good enough reason until the snap).

6 - is basically adding the four anchor points to the floor.....lugs for screwing them in are on the chasis already

7 - is the replacement of the boot hinges, and dampers so when you press the boot release button the boot will pop open as usual, but then gets pushed automatically to a fully open state. Got a link somewhere of mine in motion
 
Here is one of the boot anchor points with net attached:

and an old one from further back and with my additional boot roof lighting mod, so I can actually see in the boot LOL

Why is it, that some pr*k feels the need to do that! I get how good they would be though as the OEM wipers, I feel, doesn't remove all the rain efficiently.

Super Mods! Thanks for the info! The LED boot lights are NICE!

Haha my Audi brolly needs that cargo net!

I will definitely look into the Automatic boot opening. My old C class Merc did this which I really liked as I was approaching with the shopping!
The only thing was...it was dampened by different tension hooks and twice broke. This meant, that when I pressed the boot release button..you guessed it...the boot smacked into the rear view glass nearly breaking the thing ha!
