    Nice set of wheels without going stupidly big. There are far too many of those around that are destroyed with silly mods.

    Having had a 90bhp tdi version a couple of years ago i carried out some of the following and regretted no carrying out some of them..

    Passat W8 interior light... (not done myself)
    Basically its the same interior light however it has two red leds that you wire to the signal from the dash illumination, really brightens up the interior..

    Metal Tabs for window regs.. (done)
    Change the weak plastic window tabs for metal ones.. A key part of the regs..

    Audi TT and Leon Cupra R Bushes (done)
    After putting up circa 50,000 miles on poor road i eventually changed the rear wishbone bushes to TT bushes which had no voids and even though were a small bit harsher on the ride lasted miles longer... Same can be done for the back axle using Leon Cupra R bushes..

    T Cut the headlamps (Done)
    Most Boras i have seen have horrid dull headlamps a bit of t cut can clean them right up and improve light.

    Second Fog lamp bulb (Done)
    Not the standard on German cars of the age.

    Bora Sport Interior Clocks (Not done)
    Nice Mod..

    Dave

    I doubt the are Genuine sure even the 3 good ones would be worth 1000 euro - ish. I might be giving someone the heads up on a bargain here.
