Thanks for the pic's, they're great, and It's wonderful to see somebody else suffering to bring a VW back. I'd tell you the story of my $30K 1976 Porsche 912,but your tears wouldn't be those of joy. Have fun but watch the wallet.

yeah, i've read all about that. i'd have no problem doing it if it was a jetta carat, coupe, or GL....fact of the matter is, this is a GLi. i'd feel bad doing that to one, :banana:.
