    Hi Chris. Thanks for uploading these long videos. I appreciate this takes time as you’re filming them in a series but I appreciate the whole thing in one video. 10/10

    I‘ve bought a pack of colored markers and mark the holes when I remove a screw. Then put the screws for one piece into a small plastic bag and attach it to that part. This way I‘m „remembered“ of where the screws go and how many I‘ve left for that part.

    I really enjoy your stuff and always amazed at what you can do. I am an old bloke but still am interested in motoring related content. Wished I was younger to take on similar upgrades to my Mk6 GTI, keep it going Slix.

    Why on earth don't manufacturer make the passenger air bag behind a replaceable pannel? The number of rebuild vids I have watched they have to remove and replace the dash. No wonder cars are written off

    Fantastically informative, entertaining video Chris. You've done a really great job on this one mate, up there with the best car rebuilds on the tube. Really professional, cool calm & collective, good fun too. Came across you a while back on your mate Mat's channel, I really enjoy his stuff too, though to be honest, I have to turn the volume off & stick subtitles on his jobs, the hysterical schoolgirl screaming from him & his dad every two minutes is just tooooo cringe worthy lol.

    This is a great video and really nice repair/rebuild with some good upgrades, not sure on the dash and steering wheel upgrades, they give it a cheap look especially the steering wheel which now looks too thick and cumbersome, otherwise it's a great looking car.

    Hi bro,
    I have a question. I bought a damaged golf 8 clubsport. Finally I fixed it but I want to get rid of the errors like front assist, I refilled the airco so I need to run the first run of the aircompressor by some software. With what software can I do that?
    Thanks in advance!
