Christmas lights on cars are the best.

I don't normally care for Mk4s but this thing is the tits.

I like the hole story. Like the car and what you do with it! Respect!
In Germany it would not be permitted to drive with this extentions

At first glance I was a bit concerned, then all my worries were washed away, this thing looks outstanding!! Nice work sir!

how did you power the lights on top?

[thebornotaku]

how did you power the lights on top?

I can't speak for him but the wreath on the front of my mk5 is battery powered, and when I had regular christmas lights on the roof rack of my old Volvo, I just used a cheapo ciggy lighter to AC power converter and ran the wire through the passenger side door.

I actually have an extension cord running through the sunroof, then I closed the sunroof on it and ran it through to the trunk where I plug it in with a power inverter.

So I guess an update is in order.

I purchased a full o2m swap and and got it done in a little over 2 days.

for those of you who don't know VW Transmission codes. Thats a 5 speed to 6 speed swap.



Also picked up a GLI Cluster and steering wheel. Need VagTacho still to pull the SKC
