too much electric stuff imo
not like old cars when somthing fails you can limp it to where no need to be, and fix it afterwards
new cars if 1 thing fails i gues the car is going on the back of a transporter

I feel our pain adam, I fitted a stereo in a polo, the previous owner had cut the VW connectors off the just fitted a try. I had to make a whole new loom, only thing remaining was the front two speaker wires!
