I for one cannot wait for the day I have an automatic daily, or preferably electric. Nothing worse than some good knee pain every time I gotta shift, especially in traffic.

New tires. Not able to get to the track as often as I’d like so I went with something less track focused and more street focused. Yokohama Advan Apex… cheap and well reviewed.

Interesting, never seen these before.Installed the VW Individual Emblems.
Pretty much the same location as the edition 35 side emblems.
2.5 hp per each emblem right?

Volkswagen offered customization programs for a few years and the cars that were ordered through this program received the emblems. I thought these emblems can be a nice edition to my OEM+ project. I placed them right where the edition 35 emblems are installed.

Decided to start some electrical mods this weekend on the MK6:
- Installed rear camera for the RCD330+
- Installed rear dash cam
- Installed VLand tail lights
- Started to run all of the wiring for the dash cam & rear camera
- Broke the windshield wiper fluid tube in the hatch pulling wires and replaced with 5/32" vacuum tubing
- Also had windshield replaced this week due to some serious cracks

I removed that visor sticker years ago but was never able to fully get rid of the sticky residue.
How easy/difficult was it to run wiring for rear dash cam?

It’s time consuming if you pull the wire all the way into the hatch. I was taking apart the hatch anyway for the tail light install, so it just added an extra wire to pull from the inside. I ran along the passenger side headliner to the front using a plastic trim tool. You do have to pull all the pillars back to tuck it in right. Definitely go slow installing the pillars, VW’s you have to line up the clips just right or they just won’t go back in and will bend.
Take your time and try not to rush. I think I broke every single one of the little plastic ”Airbag” covers in the pillars along the way plus the windshield wiper fluid tube in the hatch. But the final install looks super clean with all the wires hidden away.

What did you use to remove the stickers?
