    I assume you've got a GTI loom?

    or do you have a VTS loom?

    You'll want a VTS loom to make life easier. Then switch the sensors to suit the VTS plugs.

    I happen to have a VTS loom here..... And am also in need of a GTI loom

    im not sure what loom it is coz people said a vts loome should just go straight in what plug is on your vts loome for the ecu single or tripple

    its the plug behind the passenger headlight, is it one or two?

    two big circle ones but if we swap will need 2 b the same year coz the ecu changes on the facelift models

    one black one grey i assume, in that case yes its a gti loom, and i'd imagine it would be single plug ecu.
