Nice!

Just bear in mind that the Passat Executive Style came with 15mm lowered sports suspension and sits on the 18" wheel straight out the factory.

Take a look at the "Executive Style" model. Similar to the Rline but without the Rline badge and flat bottom steering wheel. The kit varies slightly but it has Leather heated seating etc.

Such a subtle mod, I almost missed it... I think they look good on the lamps. I must be getting old or stuck in the 90's

Nice job Raf, glad you got it all back and running. I've not been on here for a while as other projects have taken up the time. Plus the reminders from forum posts seem to have stopped working for some reason as this would always pull me back to the forum. (ticked below where it says "notify me...

I like them chrome cover even more than the silver. That's a good find.

Hi All, I seem to be having a problem with the boot on my Passat B7 saloon accidentally being opened when the key is in my pocket and the boot release button gets held down. :oops: Is there anyway to change the way the boot release works from the key fob with VCDS? :-? Ideally a 3x button press as c...

Okay, I got to the bottom of this one and it seems that the modules are definitely not compatible.

Never mind, I will keep using human power...

I don't know is this helps but if I don't put on my seatbelt and move the car, the electronic handbrake does not engage when I turn off the ignition. I then have to manually pull the handbrake switch.

Worthwhile checking Honest John's review on the B7 and check out the history section to get an idea of the trim level.

Good luck choosing.

Looks like the Executive Style... lovely spec'd motor. If you are lucky there might be some additional extras.

Definitely makes them stand out... I think... I like the look.

Nice going Raf. Did you use caliper paint of hammerite?

Also what did you use to put the RLine logo on the calipers?

Hi guys, Thanks for the advice. I've taken a look at the label on the module and didn't spot the Gen4 marking. Could you guys take a second look and point out what I should be looking for? I'm guessing they are not compatible...

Thanks you.

Your ride is sitting Sweeet Normski.
Well worth the spring change.

I have also managed to get my module part numbers and other Info if this helps someone to offer some help :-?? : Drivers Door: PN:3AA 959 701 A Component:Type TUER-SG FT 002 0534 Extra: 3AA959704A J389__TSG-HR Extra: Geraet 00001 Driver Side Rear: PN: 3AA959 704 A -- J389__TSG-HR Passenger Door: PN:...

That's true, I was thinking of going down to blue look but I think I'm going for the Red accent around the car. I know it look OEM but I don't mind. I will do the calipers red at some point too. I have done a few minor modes already and in the middle of others with the car interior in bits still so ...

I like the blue needle look Raf. Seems like it was quite a big job. well done!

The CC and B6 Exhaust tips seem to fit fine. As long as there are two of them, they should just slide on and you can tighten up the jubliee clip. This is what ended up on my exhaust ends.

Hi, Can anybody shed some more light on the B7 Power folding mirror installation? I'm trying to find out if my door modules support Power Folding Mirrors before moving forward and purchasing the additional parts. Currently my door mirrors do the following: 1. Electronically adjustable. 2. Heated. 3....

I love the way you've had the pictures taken of your motor, really shows off the Passat.

Question about your suspension. How high can to ride on them? I think I would cause damage with it sitting that low around my town.

Your ride looks SweeT Raf.

Looks great on those wheels Raf. Matches the paintwork..

Lovely example pics Raf.

The tints does make a big difference and look better in my opinion.

Great mod...

Nice little mod Raf.

Would be cool to see before and after whilst they are running too but I know it's not always possible.
