I think it was more akin to the noise pipe. And not a speaker if I remember correctly.

oh yeah that works.

so the 2010 gti has the noise pipe so does the 2011+ have the soundaktor thing? i wonder if mine has one.

I think. Easiest way to tell is pull the rain tray up on the passenger side from the engine bay and look to the left of the ecu and look for an electrical plug. If it is there you have the soundaktor.

What was it before? plastic?

Yeah, and it's coming apart.

I was gonna do a nice Sparco wheel, but $35 for a leather OEM was kinda too cheap to pass up.

Id probably make the same decision if I were you.

I want way too many things for my car right now. Intake, LED tails, dual action orbital, coils... the list goes on.
I think I might get a D/A next week because my car really needs some serious TLC. And its something I can always use. I really like detailing my car and this will just make it that much easier right?

 

[Stocktastic1]

Yeah, a DA is a must.

Get the Griot's Garage 6''. It's got more balls than my Porter-Cable.

www.griotsgarage.com has some cool kits with polishes and pads and shit.

[Stocktastic1]
