Oh my god thank you so much, I was following another CZcams guide and I gave up after 3 hours, it was useless. I found your guide and I sorted the indicator in 15 minutes. Top lad, thanks again.

[@cifamotanii4587]

Can't believe you are still making mk5 gti vids like no others since mk7 came out, thx! Great job!
Keep going! 🙂👍

Really helpful video, nice and clear and with bonus points for actually telling you what size Torx driver was needed!

[@billgatesisanerd]

Thanks for the Mk5 GTI repair videos! Keep making 'em!

[@supervisorhere]

here a MK5 2008, 1.4 16V 59 kW BUD. Thanks so much for video, perfect tutorial. I just changed mine. It cost me 24 euros, including shipping, light alone 13 euros.

[@carolinaoverload327]

This is probably one of the best, most informative and professional video I've seen on the mk5. I'm now a subscriber! Thanks

[@shaunallen2017]

Great video Max, it made changing my broken signal unit so easy. Thank you very much.

You just saved me 5 hours of work. I thought i had to remove the plastic from inside to remove the whole side mirror . But only the plastic is broken. Pheeew

[@familygoodrick8579]

Super helpful, informative video, thank you Max.

[@olsmokey5256]

Great vid bro

[@joshuakim9925]

Nice work thank you

[@tylarcobb8880]

Nice video max! I was always curious how everything worked inside the mirrors. Great work! 👍🏼

[@chadpennington4594]

Just got new mirrors and sequential signals for my kids Jetta, this helps some....especially the torques bit part..lol

[@fatroberto3012]

I found it helped a lot to unscrew the circular motor unit and leave it hanging out of the way. It is only held on by three T10 screws, so it only takes a minute and hugely improves access to the other four screws that need removing. It is difficult to access the vertical screws using the kind of Torx kit most DIYers have. The bit holder gets in the way. (Maybe that is why one was missing?)

[@NolTee2]

Very good thank you

[@berusbogzniszczenia4359]

Greatfull video i have broken this part but anyway im wory to change IT. Some things they are very difficult and easy to broken ! Anyway thank you very much for this video

[@JohnC-kc5uh]

Thanks man, Now I know

[@danielsgroi7630]

This video has helped me so much.
I was just wondering if you have a video on how to remove and replace the lower front centre grille for a Volkswagen Golf 2006 2.0FSi.

Thanks for sharing! I wonder if that VW MK5 is the same Bora, Since in here in Colombia I have the VW Bora 2.5 model 2008 and I've been looking for that mirror and I can't find it for the Bora as it doesn't appear in the Trim option in the web pages of the body part dealers..
Do you know?
Thanks

[@sokissokis4195]

thanks man

[@magnificent10304]

Thanks

[@bilalals1273]

أنا اشكرك على اهتمامك يا صديقي نتعلم منك يا معلم 🤝

[@djal3xus]

Helpfull. Just note that in order to pull out the inner tortoises from the bottom site unit very thin screw.

[@TaineBuchan]

Thanks for this, just followed the tutorial but it seems like it might be the connectors. Wiggled the connection and the lens turn bright for a second but then goes dim again. Anyone have a direction on a fix?

[@rocky1266]

Do you have or can you make a video about finding where the turn signal relay to switch it out for a LED relay to stop hyperflash?

[@Subdubbin]

Thanks! I used 2 plastic knives to get the outer cap off lol.

[@devingonzales626]

Does it matter which wire goes where out of the 2 for heated mirror?

[@hsbaden]

Do you have a video for MK6 side mirror replacement of driver side Golf estate 2L auto diesel 2011.

[@Bomfunkks]

Whats the difference between the black and grey?

[@dustingilmour5748]

I replaced mine with a new led. Worked for a day and died the next. Any clue what could be wrong?

[@sliznippa]

Can the bulb be replaced in this indicator or is it a solid unit that requires replacing the lens as well? Thx

[@fatroberto3012]

It's a complete unit but they are very cheap.

[@nevinshaefer3899]

Left turn works but dim on my 2012 jetta

[@mariovojnichajduk6947]

I lost that T screws, can anyone tell me size of that screws?

[@tiagosa1773]

My T10's are all rusted and stripped. What can I do to get them out?

[@OGDeville]

Thanks for the video. My window from the passenger side wont open. What could be the problem?
?

[@ethanheitz4489]

What window switch are you using to try to open it?

[@brixtonvz]

do some videos on VW Touran (2013). also you have no parts for the Touran :-(

[@EPTALOFITIS18]

this for vw eos

[@mraccord92]

Does this apply to the 2010 sportwagon?

[@oliviersavard8676]

I did it for my '09 Sportwagen (Mk5), that said the '10 SW is Mk6 but I think most parts are interchangeable between the Mk5 and Mk6 SW since the Mk6 SW is based on the Mk5 platform, the differences are the front end and the interior

[@74H3iD]

Do you need to unplug your car battery first?

[@oliviersavard8676]

No lol

[@ThisIsJesus]

I know this isn't the proper place for this, but I want to purchase a 2013 Audi S4 with the 3.0T. but it idiles really rough, idk if this is normal or common, on the forum it is common. But idk. It has 56k miles. 6 speed manual. They want 26k for it. Driving the car seems smooth.

[@djsonicc]

is that a American Endurance Racing hat? :)

[@TekNeez]

I just replaced my turn signal light using another video on here. But this would’ve been a better one to watch. The wack thing is another GTI owner broke my turn signal in the parking lot opening his door. He looked like an abortion that didn’t take...
Edit: but the video I watched was different on my ‘09 TSI GTI. VW changed something’s on the MkV mirror housing

[@CS-hy6es]

😁

[@wiggleit7147]

I think it's impossible to remove the mirror glass without pulling a face like it's going to break!

[@oliviersavard8676]

Nah don't worry I tried it and it pops off without too much difficulty, it doesn't require too much force to remove, in fact it was much harder for me to remove the mirror cover cap

[@shinobee3126]

My mk7 mirror came off looks like the glue wore off. Any one know what kinda glue to use for this? Currently using double sided tape! 😂

[@druckerman247]

All this for goddam bulb!

[@oliviersavard8676]

well it's VW what do you expect, why do simple when you can do complicated

[@Matt463634]

Why are you wearing gloves?
