Just wanted to circle back to this as I cannot recommend this cable. After about 7 months, it will no longer provide a connection to CarPlay (it connects and then cancels every time no matter the phone). Other cables work fine.
Same ones I have. They're a nice subtle upgrade over the stock ones.
So the R seats might be up for sale?
Nice! I installed mine on ramps and the install went pretty easy and no clunking or thunking when I was done
I picked this up off marketplace yesterday for $25 for just this install
Good score man
careful with your front bumper with these going up. you will almost definitely scrape...
I built ramps with stacked and screwed 2x10s, got the tape measure out to make sure each platform is long enough to avoid this. IIRC I wound up with ~18" per "level", and cut each end of the board at a 45 to be a little less brutal on the drive up.
I got race ramps they're expensive but worth it and paid for themselves when I had to do some quick work under my mk6 but ive since got an oil extractor so now they're kind of for emergencies. I did back up on to them when I did my diffuser install to have the car higher up in the air which was cool...
Why if custom did you do 51 offset
Was thinking the same
For me, that would be optimal without needing any mod, it will be at the same location on the fender as an 8.5 et45. I am searching for a 9 et 48, the Audi Rotors come in that size, but if I am going to pay that much for OEM wheels, might as well get something I truly like custom. I have the Motegi MR147 CM7 on 18-8.5 et42 and they barely rub on hard dips without the fender mod. His wheels, as long as they clear the strut will not rub at all.
But if you want to put anything wider than 245 in the back, it will rub on the fuel filler
