as some know my gti is a write off and i am looking for a new car, now i have seen a GT for sale localy for 1150 done 75k
has 3 problems
1. central locking doesnt always work but does every time on the key
2.radio display does not work
3. has lexus lights
so my question is is the gt exactly the same as the gti wirieng wise and parts wise?
as my plan would be,
1. not sure how to fix if worse came, change ecu, bsi , locks and key transpder from my gti
2. juct swap it over from the gti if its comptable
3. swap with my original lights from gti

1. Yes
2. Check fuses & bulbs or swap for another PPT30
3. Yes, straight swap.
You rebuilt that engine you had from me yet?

As long as they are both preplexed then yes pretty much may be the odd thing that won't though.

nice one, cheers lads
as for the cetral locking problem, the guy said there is 2 keys so i presume it does it with both surly not 2 flat batteries?
does any 1 know how to fold the mirrors in so i can test it?
