    This is not going to end well.


    Try the mkV specific forums, located in the VW section.


    Edit...


    These pictures should be stickied, in a thread that says "mkIV / mkV VW owners, look here"

    that is probably one of the cleanest trunk setups ive ever seen... i really need to get into this hardline game. funny, i was going to go hardlines when i first got my air a couple years ago but couldnt find anyone to do it... now the more i look at it the more it looks like its a skill one could learn alone. definitely have to up the game. looks good man.

    Thanks for all the great feed back guys. Drew is the man when it comes to detail... The trunk setup took by far the longest to do right. From the quick disconnect bulkhead fittings, to the hard lines, Drew tried to take as much care as he could with the time we had. I will no doubt have him do something fancier with the hard lines, but it will still have to remain under the false floor as the car is my daily and I can't lose my trunk entirely. The hardlines can easily get over 200 degrees from the compressors to the tank so that is something we have to be mindful of, I have already melted 2 Parker fittings due to the heat.
