Motors Chat - Round 7

Alanstrainor

Continuation from motors chat round 6

1.This thread is for motoring topics which you feel are not worthy of starting a new thread for, banter from a meet or general motoring related chit chat.

2.No lonely hearts (This is not a personal dig at anyone, it's how we feel is the best way to describe what we want to avoid. )

3.Keep it clean.

4.The Motors charter applies.

Anyone know what this is for its in the boot corner it has a strap and a hard plastic piece that clips closed. Anyone any ideas what it's for.

CianRyan

A wild guess but it may be to strap something down. :pac:

The black plastic piece that clips seems like it's for something to fit into although it looks a bit small for a first aid just wondering was there something that came with them new that sat into it.

CianRyan

Could well have been some extra that came with the car but I don't know a lot about VW's so I really wouldn't have a clue.

Jack and wheel brace?

Or fire extinguisher maybe?

The jack and wheel brace are under the floor in the spare wheel well in one of the polystyrene things.

Could well be for a fire extinguisher

Where's warning triangle by the way? Plastic clip would hold it maybe.

Bpmull

I just spotted this picture online looks like a warning triangle I think.

joujoujou

Bingo!

Bpmull

Also seen the bit that left hanging the strap is for the first aid kit. More things to have to get although I do have a first aid kit but it's a big box one a more compact one would be better.

Foxhole Norman

Mine has some huge first aid kit in it, probably all out of date though :pac:

I wish I had such VAG triangle. Very small when packed into a box.

Quick question, is it illegal to watch TV/DVD's on head units in cars? Not that I would, more if a passenger is.

Yep, all standard ones are wired to the handbrake.
I had mine playing top gear 24/7 though

On another note.. anyone know anyone that might take on fitting an OEM Bluetooth setup to a 05 A6 if I sourced the parts? (Dublin area preferred)

I've dealt with bmstuff found him very good knows his way around BMW's anyway, I've seen work on a few other BMW's and it's neat.

Ah crap

That's awful... poor little man. As a parent of a little fella myself (albeit a few years older) I couldn't imagine how the parents must feel.
