I decided to create a photo thread on the wifes vert, Roxy.

It's a 2.0, Auto, w/ 51k.

So far, on the "To Do List"
Fix creeping brake pedal - Done
Install yellow fog lights: Halo Halogen Solaris Yellow 3000k
Replace the rear shocks - They sound like someone jumping up and down on a crappy box spring mattress
Install Phatnoise Box - I need to find the cd plug that's hiding under the E-brake???
Fix the blend door
Replace hood/trunk emblems
Replace the 2 rear rims due to warpage - Done, I just put my Deltas on it

That vert looks pretty cool with those Deltas
Take the side cover off the console (pass side) You can find the diagram in your Bentley. I did it the stupid way, thru the top opening.

Thanks everyone

The wife REALLY enjoys Roxy.

I was trying to figure out if I wanted to put Ariettas or Deltas on her car because the rear two rims were warped. Opelmania suggested the Deltas...I would have to agree w/ him after seeing them on there

Now, I just need to sell the Ariettas.

Wifey thought the Deltas had been on there the entire time until I showed her the rims I took off, then she goes...I like the old ones better Oh well, there on there to stay now

Hey J, I'll have to take a look at my Bentley then, I was going to take the entire thing out to find the cable, but if there's an easier way, I'm all for that

Looking good, Buddy!

Like yours (well, hers), I need new front and rear badges. Researching, I think I've found the factory upgrade bright chrome/dolomite grey versions, what ever one calls the 3d's. The rear lid lock cylinder being being deleted was a running change in '04, and I don't know on which side of the change yours is, however, the badge appears to be the same, regardless.

Don't know if you saw my thread.

Upgrade Your Front & Rear VW Badges!

Lol, yeah, I was gonna put a SC in Moe, but got the TS instead. The wifey doesn't like driving fast cars as they make her nervous... Otherwise, I would so

Morav, I seen the thread you posted, but I was unsure about ordering them. I was waiting to see some reviews first...But, I may just have to order them this weekend as wifey keeps wondering when she's getting new ones, lol.
