BLOCK Posted July 18, 2006 Report Share Posted July 18, 2006 ive ordered my gti without the smoking pack, all im wondering is what exactly do you not get compared to the smoking pack? im expecting its just the lighter itself and the actual clip in trays, is that right can somone confirm? cheers block Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rs32 Posted July 18, 2006 Report Share Posted July 18, 2006 that is correct IIRC - and if you haven't ordered the centre armrest then you get no ashtray lid and a different cup-holder setup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skifly Posted July 18, 2006 Report Share Posted July 18, 2006 No smoking option = no lid, no lift out tray and no lighter but a flappy cover over the socket so you can still use chargers etc. No armrest = no sliding rolly cover over the cupholder. The reason i know is i wanted to add the armrest and after delivery i told the dealer to get me the proper tray with the pop up lid as the open tray looked gash! Oh and its easy to change over until you get to taking the lighter socket out!!! SO - if anyone knows where i can get an armrest and the slidy cover for the cupholder i would be really appreciative!! Anyone selling a MK5 with leather soon and happy to sell off their armrest and rolly thingy - the stealers will never know...!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rs32 Posted July 18, 2006 Report Share Posted July 18, 2006 I have the centre armrest and no-smoking option and it does have the ashtray lid - build week 1 2006 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BLOCK Posted July 18, 2006 Author Report Share Posted July 18, 2006 just to clarify are we classing the ashtray lid as the flip up one in front of the gear stick? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DHA Posted July 18, 2006 Report Share Posted July 18, 2006 Ordered smokers pack in mine as I thought that I wouldn't have the power point in the front. Oh well its free so I don't really mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/ QUOTE ] wish i had now, my dealer never mentioned that there was just a hole in the dash without it, neither does the brochure. the pics in the brochure all show it with the flap and with no mention of smoking pack fitted. if there is just a hole i'll kick up a fuss thats for sure.

Woppum Posted July 18, 2006 Report Share Posted July 18, 2006 In the CSL, I have an ashtray, with an in car lighter. But the ashtray has a massive no smoking sign in it... Anyway, ive stated the smoking carfully rule, where you really have to try very hard to make the ash get sucked out the window... Dosent really work though...

nhs Posted July 18, 2006 Report Share Posted July 18, 2006 Also there are differences in one of the rear doors - this gets an ashtray with a lid and a slightly different moulding too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/ QUOTE ] rubber mat to cushion the plastic hole and the 12v socket with springy-cap - no lighter. I do smoke but this is a good way of stopping me smoking in the car. Have been very good - only a few sneaky out-the-window cigs in 6 months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The springy ciggy socket cover is a bit of a pain though - every time I unplug the sat nav I think it's going to snap Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skifly Posted July 19, 2006 Report Share Posted July 19, 2006 well i kicked up a stink as mine turned up without the roller thingy and the lid so was just an open tray. i told them that they had chosen the no-smoking option for me which was a little presumptuous as we didnt have that sort of relationship - hence they ordered one for me.
