This came from a few different pages and adds part numbers, notes, torque specs, and other new tips.

Also up is a page on installing the blind spot mirror on mk5 cars. This info was previously on a writeup that covered all generations, separating them into mk4 and mk5 helped clean up the parts number section , etc.

Good writeup. A suggestion though, make sure it's ok to have the parts diagrams.

Nice, it looks like the suspension is a lot better.

I can't say for sure but it looks like they shared more parts with the Audi TT suspension. There's also an independent rear rather than the old axle beam setup. Supposedly they might switch back to save money.

Some have reported that the blue mirrors have a harder time snapping in due to fitment. And vw is making plenty of money, just not in the US.

If you watch the financial markets, VW's stock skyrocketed after Porsche said they would take control. They went over $1000 US from in the $30s a few years ago.

Yes, it's quite amazing but you have to diversify. Lots of good buying opportunities right now but don't put all your money on red.
