Thanks Ben! Just trying to work how exactly I'm going to fit them... lol.
180 - You can get no?
Ste - Got them from www.plastics4performance.co.uk There's more information on them in the thread I raised in the Queries location.
Mystic - They seem pretty light... I won't know the difference until everything is fitted. It also gives me the opportunity to remove all the electrical stuff too!
Cheers Gary mate!

Thanks to all for the great comments.
Ben - You're welcome any time mate.
Dibz - No mate, this is the only car I own! Another one will be bought sometime soon I think!

I know this is a quote from way back, but managed to get my AP's for £1200,and they are genuine CitSport ones as well......
And they fit under 14" rims....
Hope you get the window fixings sorted after our chat yesterday....

They look lovely. But £1200 is stilll quite a sum. The Hi-Spec ones are available for £650 inc. VAT and delivery. Sounds like a bargain to me. I'm being silly really, as the 306 GTI6 ones are pretty damn good. They are just about bed in now, and they have serious stopping power. Obviously having a very light car helps though...
Thanks for all the help Foggy. I've decided I'm going to have a crack at the windows myself. A mate is going to lend a hand too. Fingers crossed, I'll have them done in a couple of weeks time. All I need to find is some clear polycarbonate sealant...
I popped down to a local garage this morning. A chap there was taking a look at the windows, and going to give me a rough quote for the job. When he mentioned at least a couple of hours labour, the ol' butt nipped up a bit, lol. He did mentioned that with the rear for example, the standard glass has a black tinted border, which is about 1 inch think, and this hides any of the sealant used. So with the poly windows, as there is no tint, it will show up and look a little crap. What do you think of this? Can you see any way of avoiding it?

When you take the window out, paint the border of the tailgate with some black paint.... Jobs a good un!
