how do i know if my 04 GLI is a 2004 or 2004.5?

iv noticed some gli's are 20th anniversary editions being an 04.5, how do you tell the difference from an 04 to 04.5?

[zroman610]

if you have a 1.8t it's a 2004.5 and 20ths are only in 2003

20ths are not Jettas as well.

04 gli is a 24v vr6 no different looking than a regular jetta, 04.5 is 1.8t with body kit ,bbs wheels, recaro seats

if it was sold as a 2005, like mine, than you have a 2004.5

ok i never really new they had an 04.5 only heard of the 99.5 when they changed the body style to mk4, mine is a 04 GLI with 1.8t so its a 04.5 correct?

[043071r]

and it has the 02m 6spd not auto
