Just buy any generic 1/2 drive impact set (black) off eBay. They are softer than CV so won’t crack with impact. 1/4 is pretty much good for trim screws, you’d be shearing 1/2 to 1/4 adaptors for fun with an impact gun.
Absolute steal mate! I've never seen one with gloss black trim, most people change to sport bumpers. I would assume the rear seats will fit. And as for interior trim. Maybe try high fill primer then spray it?
I opened mine the other day, freebies from Bose. They are okay sound wise, not the best I have but I've used them a few times since for the convenience of not needing an amp. They are veryy comfy and great battery. I've noticed the Bluetooth can drop out every now and then which is annoying.
I have a mk3 with a different engine. 2012 plate with 120k ish miles and the chassis has been great. I go through rear wheel bearings but that because lows and spacers.
Yeh it's not threaded. The end of the selector is rough like a file, then there is a white plastic piece clamped onto that. Then the knob just presses onto the plastic bit. you don't need to twist, just pull. A bit of a wiggle might help free it though.
Sorry for another misfire thread, can't find one similar.
My mk3 1.2 started misfiring under load between 1 - 2.5kish but was fine at higher revs.
I've not had chance to get it sorted as I drive a lot for work but In the past few days it has got much worse. It now happens through the whole rev...
I'd do the wheels Anthracite and lower it, coilovers ideally.
Have a look at AP coilovers, if they are too pricey then springs but they don't go that low on these.
