Re: Replacement Driver Seat
How did you get on with the replacement?
Are the new seats a lot more supportive?
I have a 2005 B5.5 Comfortline, between the seat and a new set of shocks i should be right.

Re: Cheap Meyle HD arm kits
I emailed the seller. The kit will not fit later cars.
They also sell the correct kit at €485.

Best source for Lemforder control arms.
As the title suggests I am looking to replace the front suspension arms on my B5.5 Passat. I have been quoted €635 locally for the full kit. I am based in Ireland but can get stuff across from the UK quite easily. I don't see any resellers advertising on this site. Any information would be greatly...

Re: Mad indicator relay
Don't remove anything.
Get a can of contact cleaner and spray it into the base of the stalk while cyclingthe indicator stalk.
Done the trick for me, only found out after I had bought a new hazard switch.

Airbag VW badge.
Hi guys,
Where can I get my hands on a VW badge for my B5.5 drivers airbag?
The current one is scratched to bits by the previous owner.

cruise control always armed
Hi folks, new on the forum, just got a 05 saloon comfortline. Very happy with it so far.
I drive with the cruise control switch always on and then set or cancel it as I need using the steering wheel controls.
Is this ok or am I over working the cc computer by having it always armed?
