I'm looking for a floor jack, and was curious to know if anyone has had any experience with the model sold at Tire Rack. I called TR yesterday and found out that the jack is made for them (so he couldn't tell me the actual "brand") and, like so many things these days, is made in China. It looks...

I'm on the mailing list over at Tire Rack.com and saw they have an awesome sale on these wiper blades. I believe these are almost identical to the blades that now come standard on the MKVI GTI. (I think those might actually be the Ultimate OE Blades, but I'm not 100% certain on that.) I'm...

I don't often play CDs but I am finding that when I do buy new CDs, I'll pop it in the stereo and let it ride with me until I get around to importing it into my iTunes. The problem is that there's no really good place to store them except in the door pocket, where they can sometimes slide...

I'm kicking around the idea of having my stock Denvers powder coated in lieu of buying a set of after market wheels. First, a few questions: How long does it take to have powder coating done? Does it take a long time to "cure"? For those who have had wheels powder coated, how much should...

The title pretty much sums it up. I'm considering aftermarket wheels when I take delivery this Spring, and I'd like to stick to 17s. Apart from an improvement in appearance, I'd like to trim some of the weight, too, but I don't know what the stock wheels weigh. Thanks for your help. Cheers, Kevin
