Ive had this dash sitting in the basement for months and it was finally time to get this thing installed! Figured Id make a video kinda walking through the process of how to remove the dash since it feels like a big job to do. Not super hard just time consuming mostly. - Auta a dopravní prostředky
I would have changed the heater core while all that was out but since this thing is going to Florida I don’t think you’ll ever need it 😂
Yeah I thought about it but then I’d have to order one and I had to have the car back together same day. Hopefully I don’t need it for awhile haha
Great job Christian! I imagine a dash swap is a pain but as you stated 100% worth it. Your attention to detail and all the modifications you make are always on point! Keep up the great work!
This work reminds me of my visit in November when I removed the dashboard from the Vento in beaver. It's not the prettiest work, but it's worth it. Great job buddy.😎👍
This same view when i change my dash in my old mk4 ❤️
Totally love your videos. I'm going to buy a jetta 4 tdi. I'm from South Africa 🇿🇦. Keep up the excellent content.
viva SA!✌
Eventually I’ll visit SA!
You must definitely visit sa the vw dub is strong here buddy 💪
Well done and good job on not losing your cool doing it lol.
I almost did a few times 😂
What a pain in butt job ! Butt y’all done gone good again. Thanks again, RickGTI…..🇺🇸🔧
with all the trouble to get it done it came out mint💯🔥🔥🔥
LMFAO the glovebox handle on my MK4 fell off too..so glad this video came out!
Great video Christian on how to change out the dash on the Jetta wagon. I actually have to change out my center console forward section, gear shifter area and the glove box in the next few days since they are both broken. I have a very clean center console and glove box from a 2006 Mk4 Golf to go into my 2002 Jetta wagon. I've changed these parts before, like you showed the process is challenging, but worth it in end 🇩🇪
More and more fans from SA🇿🇦
Love the vids. Ever thought bout gettin chrome gage clusters for your jetta ? Definetly would fit the wood / chrome theme of your car ! Keep up the good work :)
Pain in the.... Well done, peace ✌️👍
It's the little things that make all the annoying work worth it. Looks better and better every day that interior. I don't know how rare they are, but it would be very cool to have a cluster like the 1.6 bora had but with the mph, i've saw only one like that on an vr6 20v. The smooth dash with the separate cover for the airbag was on all rhd cars bora/r32, the dimple dash was only for the lhd, bora(2000 model and up),r32 and the 2004-2006 golf variant.
Oh yeah baby
Dimple dash ftw
Hey Christian, love the content. Got any tips on the sticky «soft touch» plastic?
Oh man dash jobs are the worse 😅 I just picked a R32 and luckily the heater core was done otherwise I'd be doing the same. I know we had no metal panels under the dash which is weird. Ours is all plastic over here!
Loving the content though 🤙
Love from South Africa
Should’ve replaced the a/c blend doors while the dash was out.
I really like the steering wheel in this car would love one for my vw bora
Here we go.💪🏻🇳🇱
Moste 01 and on highline bora/golfs got them dimple dashes,late 01 and on ones got airbag smooth dash, and 98-00(and some early 01) got them with the airbag "flap" door :D also the windshield vent sensor pops out of the vent piece
Thanks for the info! And I tried to pop it out but idk it wasn’t having it lol but even if it popped out putting the dash back in I feel like it’d be impossible to get to the plug again
@@Mk3Smith yeah its hard to do true 🤭 half of the time the replacement dash you buy already got the vent removed, i always put my sunglassen with the legs in the vent it looks funny 😂
When u did this did your airbag light come on?
Great success when was breaking stuff 😂😂😂
Let's go!!
200! 🥳 Looking forward to what's next.
First 😁 you can also get the littel light sensor out instead then the whole thing 😅
Duuude does the mk4 steering column not adjust in and out Aswell as up and down? I’m almost sure they do, would of given you the room to get the dash out without removing the storks 😬
Only up and down
I saw a dimple dash in a Cabrio in the US ?
YEAAAAAAH…..!
Se ve genial 👏👏😁😁👌🇲🇽
Hey , im new to the channel , how come you moved to Germany ? 😅
Hey man! Welcome to the channel. We moved here back in 2019 because my wife is in the air force
@@Mk3Smith okey cool , keep up the good work 😊
you ruined the top windshield vent. the light sensor for the AC climatronic is just pushed in, take that trim tool and pry it upwards
How is it ruined?😂 it went back in no problem and made life much easier to get the wire through with the vent out.
@@Mk3Smith the ventpiece is spotwelded to the dashboard. Those welds always brake when you try to pry the vent away. You could tape a stripe och wirefeeder to the plug and then feed it thrue the cable hole
i have seat leon 2004 whit that dash
Seemed like a lot of work for little gain . 29.07 of my life i won’t get back.
