Lucky for me, it has the newer plugs but yes, no big deal to get the convertor.

My local parts guy has given me one for 180 Euro so rather than going through eBay, I took it from him. He ordered it as a stock item, which takes a day longer, but means we have more chance of returning it should it not be what I want.

The MK4 I found in Germany.

I went through www.bimmernav.com for both.
