    i want a vts but like 106 gti, but dont like the dash in the gti, so tasha, (tashavtr), ((she wasn't sure if it would fit)) sugested that i could put a vts dash into it.

    now before i go out and buy one, in the not so distant future,

    would it fit, and work correctly ????

    thnaks in adavance, lee.

    p.s. has it been done before ?

    I think there are pro's and con's of both dashes. The GTi comes with a passenger airbag AND glovebox whereas the Mk2 VTS only comes with a passenger airbag. I think the Mk1's came with a small pop up pocket on top of the dash. I'm not overly keen on the shape of the GTi dash as it looks a bit "dated" but it's smoother than the VTS's so it's hell of a lot easier to clean
