Hi Folks - my Mk2 Gal is almost four and I am about to change to a Mk3. I test drove a 1.8 6 gear diesel mk3 and was impressed, particulary with performance and economy. The driver's seat was very comfortable too. The next gal will last rather longer than four years so I am paying more attention to accessories. I have questions around tonneau cover, net, radio and rear quarter windows. Can you help please? 1. Tonneau cover and net - I can understand what the tonneau cover does for its money, but the next seems very expensive. What does it do and is it any good? 2. Sony radio - I read elsewhere here that the standard radio is less sensitive, and speakers not brillant, so I think I'll go for the sony version. Any comments please? 3. Rear opening quarter windows - is this solved now? Do they open? In fact, thanks for any advice you have on options. I did look at the x-pack but it seems very expensive. I like the idea of the panorama roof, but everything else seems more posy than functional. Cheers and thanks -Ken

My Nokia car kit phone holder is stuck on. A long plate runs front to back parallel with the left side of the radio and heater controls. This is on a Galaxy with climate control. My previous Galaxy (is there any other car?) did not have climate control but did have the very same car kit. On the old Galaxy, a special plate slid in the left side of the fascia. It was better positioned and much firmer that the stick on mount I have now. Happy chatting.
