Swapped out an old TPMS button for a Comfort/Sport Damper
Button to switch the valve on my exhaust. Nice and discreet.

Hi All,

Not all today but still

New to the forum and only owned the caddy now for 2 months now after selling my Stage2+ Golf mk5 Edition 30 for the practical caddy.

So far i have done the following to it...

- Retrofited HID's, Projectors and blacked out the original headlight's.
- Retrofited Midline MFD from Lowline, Will be upgrading again to Highline down the line.
- Retrofited Highline CECM
- Retrofited Cruse Controll and Highline SWCM
- Retrofitted Footwell Lights
- Retrofitted Rain and Light sensor with Mk5 Golf Auto Dimming Mirror.
- Enabled Auto Headlights, Auto Wipers and Rain Close.
- Insulated, ply lined and carpeted.
- VCDS Tweeks.
- Fitted CarComputer, Amp and Subwoofer from the Golf.

Enjoying the Caddy so far

Trimmed down my wind deflectors to allow my mirrors to fully fold so I don’t burn the motors out

Only picked up my first caddy on Monday.

Thought about changing the gearbox tonight. Took one look and thought that looks like a tomorrow job.

I’ve been soundproofing the cab floor over the last few days. I will be starting the rear and the doors after that.

Fare play, but thats a bit drastic

, i had these on my 18 plate, no issues, mirror just used to gently come to a stop as it touched the deflector, no worries of burning the motors out etc.

You say no worries but there is a worry when the mirror fold motor is tripping out on its current limit rather than hitting the end stop. You may not have seen a degradation in the motor life but that's not to say it will never happen.

I agree with you there Doc.
@r1lea that’s a really nice job you’ve done there mate.
I’ve finished soundproofing the cab today. Took me a while around working night shifts, but it’s now done.

The reason i said no worries was because it was exactly that, mine used to just gently kiss the deflector as it came to a stop, if it had of forced itself into the deflector under force putting the motor etc under stress then id understand the need to either remove the deflectors or cut them down.
