Hope not :blink:

The original photo was taken by the previous owner I think using a phone camera. The Modded ones are taken once I had the car with a fairly good camera and after a good wash with meguiars which gives it a nice deep shine. That's the only thing I can think it might be. Agree the boot spoiler is pretty pants but probably better than no spoiler for now. Still like the splitter though. [B)]

Neo-design It Up

Mine has a Neo-Design kit on it, running it on 20" alloys, tinted windows, still got a few bits to do, was looking at rear window spoiler, but they are really expensive, but you can understand why i want one, just look at Kewe's on his car, looks awesome.
We with the Toledo's, in league of our own, not many around and once modded up, they really stick out, so lets hear it for the Tolly boys and girls :clap:
Oh by the way left you a picture of my Tolly when i first bought it :D

There's a few interior mods that I think are worth looking at. Changing gear knob not only looks better but has a much better feel. Cupra R pedals, custom dead pedal plates, stainless sill guards, W8 light. Lifehammer fits nicely in the lid of the armrest too, oh and leather handbrake cover.

Nak, you haven't got your old V5 alloys knocking around have you? I already had to replace one due to corrosion on the inner rim and I think I have another on the way out and may need to source one.

I done quite a few of the same mods that Sam had done and was really happy with mines. Toledo can have a few subtle mods and look very nice indeed.

I miss my Toledo, sort of wish I got another instead of the Ibiza but I like the Ibiza too... two different classes of car IMO!

Was a doddle mate :)

Open the ashtray and look inside you'll find one philips screw - remove that and lift out the ashtray disconnecting the power and light source.

You'll now see two Torx T20 screws - remove them.

Remove the radio and once removed you'll find another two Torx T20 screws - remove them also.

Working from the bottom, pull the fascia away from the centre console and work the top away also - the bit under the vents can be a little tight but with some paitence it'll pull away no problems.

Hope this helps, Chris.

Some nice ideas here, thanks.

Have anyone wired the car for amped front speakers/power cables etc? does the toledo come apart go back together easily enough?

And also is there an easy passage through the firewall for the power cable to the battery?
