I'd very much like a HEPA cabin air filter. None I can find are specified for a 2019 GTI, but that doesn't mean they won't fit.
Does anyone know if the size matches an older model or something?
Mann makes one, got it in my Rabbit currently.
Just picked up a CPO 2019 autobahn GTI (U.S.). Missing the trunk tire liner, instead they put like 4 little self adhesive pillow pouches from the factory, not sure what thats all about, to keep the compact spare more comfortable? Also not sure if I have the threaded tow hook in the little spare kit, I have not pulled out the whole foam lined spare kit on the left side yet. Also missing hood damper/liner. Fabric battery cover is missing the top flap. The absence of the backlights on the overhead console lights is kind of annoying, don't know if I'll spend $100 to install the backlit panel since I'll probably get used to feeling for the switches in the dark. The sunroof switch is the only backlit switch along with the Car-Net buttons. Did not come with felt lined glove box like my MK6 Golf TDI had, and no lock, I might upgrade those? Car came with 9 speaker Fender. I'm coming from a MK6 2017 Jetta SEL so most of the stuff on this 2019 GTI are quite an upgrade, the best feature is the resume button on the adaptive cruise control from a complete stop-- on my MK6 2017 Jetta SEL the adaptive cruise would shut off at a complete stop and I'd have to manually accelerate to at least 15 miles per hour to click on the resume button which made it suck in stop and go traffic.
Son of a bitch! You’re right. I just walked out and checked the car and it doesn’t have the under seat storage. I hadn’t noticed.
Smart move for VW, then.
Indeed, quite a bit of this is pretty clever so far as cost-cutting measures go.
They shaved quite a few bucks without overly compromising the premium feel of the vehicle.
I had one for a year, don't have one now. Haven't missed it. Didn't even realize I didn't have the useless a/c glove box anymore until I read this thread and went to the garage to check. Never turned it on in my 17, don't miss it either. Honestly don't miss any of the changes listed.Except I wanted the under seat drawer.

I'm a courier and am in my car 10 hours per day so I could really use the extra storage space. The Fender audio system would have been nice also.
