I bought a couple of these Parrot 3200 LS Bluetooth handsfree kits for our two vehicles. I decided to mount the Golf's display in the small sunroof motor panel. This way if I ever decide to ditch it, I just have to get a new trim panel.

I originally wanted to mount it in the top left corner of the windshield, but decided it would be too much of a hassle, and would cover too much windshield.

Here's the first layout picture.

Made a little frame for the display.

I used some Super 77 spray glue to hold the fleece in place. RIP to my old blue jogging pants.

First coat of resin has been brushed on.

Cut out the display region with my trusty Dremel.

Sanded the bumps out of the resin, and roughed up the finish for the Bondo to bite into it.

Test fitted in the car.

Bondo applied, can you tell it's my first time? This stuff thickens super fast! This looks like a science fair volcano.

Sanded down the bondo, this was quicker than I thought it would be. Note the small hole drilled for the microphone.

Hi there. I'm fairly new to this site. I'm loving the community here, so I want to contribute to everyone this article I read that really changed my life financially. Last week I got a check for $900! Really, no joke, I thought I couldn't do it myself, but I did. And it really helped me out my family financially because i'm a stay at home mom. But here's the article I read: http://www.news4show.com/finance/google-hiring-you.html hopefully it works out for you too. Good luck and God bless!

Very Nice Golf like the cluster were you get it and how much $$$ was it. I'm also glad that I am not the only one that works on his golf at -20 C.
