Very nice. I am going to mount my LCD in the 'cup holder' area.. What did you use to form that?

You will have to remove handbrake hadle before removing that cup holder compartment, unless you want to do it risky way:bend it.

It's nice to see another MK3 on here. I haven't even started my project yet, but when I do it will be going into this:

If you plan to mod your car tmtuning its a great site to buy from. I'm going to get those headlights (pic1 pic2)for my dub.

I've already done a bunch of stuff to my car. I thought of going with those headlights that you just showed me but I think I will just stick with my 'mk4 looks' right now. I also have H&R coilovers, front and rear stress bars, smoked turn signals and sidemarkers and FK tailights.
As for performance, I have a magnaflow exhaust, DSR 256 cams and this. My intake manifold is in the process of getting polished so it should be "blinged out" pretty soon. I'm a regular on www.vwvortex.com and go by the same name.
I plan on mounting my screen in the cup holder area and my case either under the passenger seat or in a euro upper glove box if I can find one cheap.
