the TT was the most stolen in 2012, audi's are big targets for theft as there is a way around the immobilizer

Liked the look of these, on LandyZone from a few years back, and kept the link: http://www.landyzone.co.uk/lz/f7/home-made-rocksliders-57629.html
Should be easy enough to add tubes if you can get the ends massaged.
Cheers, H.

Thanks for all the good comments guys
It was bought abought 14 months ago from a guy who had started it as a project, he had fitted a 200tdi, put on a new crossmember, new springs and shocks, new brakes but then gave up on it.
I only got started on it after recovering from surgery, the leaky roof was replaced with a non sunroof one, the front bumper changed for a winch type(with winch)the springs changed for the correct ones, timing belt and service, clutch fork changed for heavy duty one (new clutch fitted when engine changed but not fork) electric fan,steering guard, snorkel,spots, new lights all round,alarm with various hidden switches,new door locks, replacement rear door with heated glass, made new floor sections, seatbox repaired and modified to take Honda Civic type R seats,battery box replaced, bulkhead behind seats removed and brace bar fitted to allow more seat movement, exhaust modified to exit through side panel, extra gauges, air filter box repositioned.
TD5 bonnet ( lot lighter ) and lots of other small things.
The rock sliders were bought but we put non slip tape on them.
It was then sprayed an Audi grey with black roof
Forgot to say that we also fitted a Rangerover handbrake assembly on the top of the seatbox instead of the original which sticks out the front of the seatbox and hits your leg.
