What Did You Do to Your TDI Today?

I'm going to guess not well if you mean using mags to hold on the plate. Your plate is going to fly off when you accelerate and reach enough wind resistance, no matter how strong they are. and will probably, at minimum, leave a few scratches... that's if it doesn't fly through the windshield like something out of final destination.

Hey sorry for taking so long to reply.
I asked in the TDI thread because I think the TSI has the same steering wheel?
If I was able to reuse the airbag then that would be brilliant as it would save me a few hundred quid, but I wouldn't mind buying one with one already.

Something like that, seems 'reasonably' priced?
Im a little relucatant to be messing around with the steering wheel though, as I don't really have a clue what I'm doing... something could go badly wrong!!
Thanks for all your help by the way!
You won't need to replace the airbag, yours will match the GTI wheel. If you don't want to mess around with the control steering just get the base GTI wheel with no buttons. Then its as easy as it gets.

Completely untrue
Rare Earth magnets will easily hold the entire front plate assembly to the bumper at over 100 MPH. Ask me how I know...

Ready to race!
Installed DG springs today.
I'll get more shots once they settle a bit.

I hardwired in a cell phone charger that is always hot.
Parts used:
Bussmann ATC Add-A-Circuit ~$6
RoadPro 12-Volt Socket with Battery clips ~$5
20W Dual Charger ~$10
NTE 1 1/4" adhesive heat shrink w/3:1 shrink ratio ~$6
Extra 20A Fuse I had
Wire/Heatshrink I had
I cut the clips off of the socket and used the heat shrink to hold it in place and keep it from shorting out on anything. Ran the wire to the fuse box and plugged the add a fuse into the circuit as shown below. I didn't remove any existing fuses.
I removed one of the blank switch plates as a temporary solution. I ordered the USB 'switch' which I will wire to the charger. It is coming from overseas and I didn't want to wait.
There are two cables because I have two phones (personal and work).
I'll take more photos when I install the other part in the next couple weeks.

Installed the rear valance sold by oneperfectdose. This thing completely changes the rear of the car IMO.
I dig it! :w00t:
