It's a pretty easy job and well worth the hassle.

New TT owner--got some questions/comments
Hey all, I've had my TT Coupe 225 Quattro for about three months now and I love it, but there are some things about it that I question. Wondering if anyone else has any thoughts about these things:
--My computer does not seem to be calibrated to the speedometer. I figured this out when I set the cruise at 80, and then reset the computer. The average speed came up at 78. Which one is more accurate?
--Does anyone else feel like there should be a right-side armrest? I had one on my previous car and got rather used to it. Is there anything aftermarket that works (without looking ridiculous)?
--After a long road trip (9 hrs) I was kind of wishing my seat had a lumbar support adjustment. Anyone else?
--I use a radar detector but don't like to leave my ashtray open. I'm surprised there isn't a separate "utility outlet." Has anyone wired anything
up?
--Getting in the seat I seem to be scratching the leather a little from rivets/buttons on my jeans and pants. Aside from being more careful getting in, is there any type of "leather conditioner" I can use to take care of the scratches?
Other than these things I love the TT. At least once a day I get a "Hey, nice car!" comment from strangers, which makes me feel pretty good.

Re: I've done some radar detector hard-wire installations and I can send you the instructions.
Sure, if it's not too much trouble. I might give it a shot, as long as I don't have to rip apart the dash or anything.
