unfortunately, as has become the norm, it's still not done, despite them sending me that picture and dropping off a new battery because they ruined my old one. Despite that, I've been working more on my new things. As some may have noticed the plastic valence for the front bumper isn't there. I actually am planning to mount a 32" light bar there.

I got the light bar this week, and had one other ace up my sleeve. Some early 2000's VWs have an auxiliary fuse box that can be bought separately for 12$ on amazon...I think you can see where I'm going here.

The lightbar was stupid simple to wire up, and I'm replacing the switch it came with with an OEM switch that I hope to find soon. It passes through the fuse box (that came with three 30a fuses) which in turn connects to the positive battery terminal. I plan to get some new terminals soon that will allow me to add other accessories. The fuse box has space for five accessories that I can add in the future, and I can also hook three more up to the 30A fuses with a small jumper cable, for a total of 8.
