    Hi all,
    Here are a few pictures of my Euro Spec Jetta TSI,
    sorry for the crappy mobile phone quality on the images....
    Retrofits are;
    OEM Golf R wheel with shift paddles
    Alu pedal set and dead pedal
    OEM BT Module
    RNS 510
    OEM GPS-GSM-Telestart roof aerial
    OEM Lugano wheels
    OEM trunk chrome look a like piece under the plate
    OEM chrome Exhaust tips
    Deletion of Jetta and TSI badges

    Really nice! Love the interior the colors look really good together. by the way, how was the installation with the dead pedal? i was under the impression that this style pedal was not a direct bolt on for the MK6 jettas...

    Wow I really like the rns 510 unit. Ive been thinking about doing this swap myself. I already have the rns 315 so it should be a direct plug in swap for me. I also want to add on the backup camera at the same time.



    BTW I LOL'ed at your method for getting rid of the seatbelt chime. For all that didnt notice he has a seatbelt end inserted into the lap retainer.

    Hi all,
    Two dots on the windshield mirror ar the sensors for auto dimming mirrors...
    SW shift paddles are activated via VAGCOM.
    Forgot to turn off seat belt chime though,tried that black plastic but only worked for a few hours,due to weight i guess:-)

    And yes the vehicle is twincharged,
    Can post the engine bay if you like ;-)

    And as of dead pedal,
    If you cut the two latches at the back of the pedal it is a direct fit...

    Nice and Clean!

    Where did you get the chrome piece on your trunk? It looks just like the audi trunk's.

    It is. 1.4 tsi (turbo only) 122hp and 1.4 tsi twincharged. Very nice engine! Had some chain problems on my mk5 tho.
    Also 1.2tsi, 2.0tsi, 1.6tdi and 2.0tdi offered in EU.

    Looking to do the steering wheel swap myself soon. After looking at vids and guides I believe it isn't too difficult once the vehicle has the proper parts for multifunctions and paddles.

    Hi,
    not difficult at all,but had to be programmed thru VAGCOM for paddles....
    Ex SW was also multifunctional too but without the DSG paddles,so additional programming might be necessary for these....
