[Vwdiesel] 10 Lug Caps and Caddy rear window

[Travis Gottschalk]

The caps can be had from VW really cheap too. Likely a wash when you add shipping from the other listed web site. But I think most dealers stock them and I think I know why. Father took his security lug bolts off (which have the round caps on the inside as well). There were two more caps that were busted some. We got the caps and lug bolt taken car off and then had single tire that needed to be removed to fix the flate at the tire place (they put the alloy back on and the spare back in the trunk). They ripped the center part of the cap out on two again. Never ending. Big hole in a few of them again from just one tire at a tire place. 
 
Even with the window that "fits" the truck you will find out there is an OEM one and an aftermarket one. The OEM one has a total of 3 glass peices and I think works much better since the sliding piece is on the out side to not catch the seat back. The aftermarket one sides on the inside and has two sliders and catches on the seats. Brother swapped his aftermaket out for an OEM. Then ther is the solid flate glass then there is also a bubble type of plastic one that is suppost to give the people more room to put the seat back but the panel tends to cloud up with the age they are. 
 
Just refreshed the suspention on the 04 Golf. I put VR6 used from springs and used wagon rear springs, Audi TT rear control arm bushings, swaybar links and swaybar bushings, rear axle bushings, rear upper strut bushings-OEM, front upper strut bushings 034m motorsport (harder), ball joints, Koni red shocks/struts, tie rod ends, and also put a little harder dogbone engine mount in as well. Was going to take out the EGR cooler but ran out of time. Also refreshed the oil in the tranny as they say it should be done around 100K miles. Found out my pass side drive flange is leaking so that is one of the next things. Took the car for a "life time alignement" (just as longa as I don't tell them that I have worked on the suspension in the future if I have to then they will align for no charge again). The front was off enough were I would have cooked the tires had I driven too far. The rear was pretty close and didn't need a shim for the rear like my brothers needed. Drives more crisp and bumps are better now. Not a huge change in feel though-better then too harsh.
