Finally got her! T6.1 199 4M!

[Gazpar]

So finally picked her up properly today.
Picked it up on 5th November but dropped it straight off at the body shop!
Currently at HazzyDayz about to have the digital dash fitted once that’s done I will post pictures!
Also got the rear spoiler fitted body colour but didn’t take a photo!
Big spec list which I’ve also attached, only thing I’m waiting for now is to fit the lower splitter and to get the flappy wheel from Leighton!

I'm glad i got lane assist, i did feel it a few times pulling at the wheel to get me back in the middle. Oops. Then thought i better get home so i can actually use it!

It physically pulls the steering?

 

[Gazpar]

Yeah will hold you in your lane and if you don't indicate to move over... Loud beeping telling you to stay in the middle of the lane with the wheel pulling you back! Bit scary at first. @Kind of Blue

T6.1 has electric power steering. Basically the biggest change compared with T6.
Not mentioning switch from PQ25 to MQB electronics.

Not mentioning switch from PQ25 to MQB electronics. Well absolutely. What the hell is that? OK thank you

 

[dubber36]

It's the platforms that the vehicles are built on. PQ25 is Mk5/6 Golf, MQB is Mk6 in simple terms.

@Gazpar did you keep your original IC or maybe you had to give it away as a part of the deal?

 

[Robert]

By the way I think @dnoermann would be very interested in this kind of retrofit .
It is a shame there was no PQ VAG vehicle with OEM LCD type IC. I wish there was someone who would prove that I am wrong on this occasion.

It was part of the deal unfortunately!
In terms of retrofitting all I overheard was 2 wires have to be added in order to get it to work, and the new dash surround. So it should be a fairly easy retrofit. @Robert
