Just bought bonnet gas struts for upgrade on bonnet. Bought them from a company in Germany. Awaiting for delivery. Also bought some silver Philips bulb replacements. 👍🏼
Smart wee cars these GTI's, and the VAG canbus systems are so fussy 🙈 my MK2 Leon throws up the bulb fault for my LEDs if the wind changes 😂 Great vid and channel mate 👍🏻
apparently you can get some canbus adapters that cancel out the hyper flash but they are nearly the same price as the bulbs and you have to chop the wiring to fit them :( hope get this little thing off the ground soon with a remap and a few other bits! Cheers, thanks for watching!
Nicely made video, good to see the process behind fitting the parts! How has the removal of the rear wiper been? My rear window tends to get pretty dirty when driving on wet/muddy roads.
Car gets cleaned weekly mate, really not as much of an issue as people make out 😂 I literally live in the middle on the countryside too and somehow survive 🤙🏼
@@matimcfetridge Once upon a time there were no starter motors,laminated glass,fuel pumps,rear defroster wires etc.But people managed to survive under so harch conditions and hoped that those things were to be invented in a future.
Not a critisism the wind deflectors look smart but be aware that they make an already wide A pillar more of a blind spot at junctions etc more caution required but you get used to them.
do you have a list of the mods done? also i opted for chinese h4 leds for the front, but had a few people tell me its a bit too bright, as for the indicators which osrams did you go for?
@@Smithiesta doesn't look like there is a fix apart from coding out mate, If I were to do it again I would probably just go for the Philips silver vision!

¿Dónde puedes comprar esos intermitentes LED?
AGreed. Good small upgrades make all the difference here.
More to keep, make sure you are subscribed 👍🏼
Which Osram LED bulb did you use. Love those new indicators!
Explain to me again regarding the bulb you replaced, I just didn’t get it, even after you repeated it quite a few times.
do you have a list of the mods done? also i opted for chinese h4 leds for the front, but had a few people tell me its a bit too bright, as for the indicators which osrams did you go for?
Wait , what? You haven't fitted a gas strut to your car bonnet?
link to led indicators pls
The de-wiper kit will do wonders
I reckon so too! Huge piece of glass on this with an ugly wiper in the middle 😂
@@matimcfetridge yeah it's the same thing as the audi, should never have come with them from factory
Imagine if you could spec no rear wiper from factory 😂
@@matimcfetridge that would be great 🤣🤣 save money and time
Wind deflectors look good! Do you have a link for them? I couldn’t find any for my 3 door!
These were from euro car parts, just type your reg in and find the biggest discount code you can 👍🏼👌🏼
you have no cruise control? oh my
Those wind deflectors look 🔥, might need to pick them up for my Peugeot 107
I have to admit I think the Up wind deflectors looks way better than my A3 ones 😂😂
I didn't even know they made the up GTI
Unreal little machine. Go drive one if you can, highly recommended it 🙏🏼
Where can you get the bulbs?
Eurocarparts :)
Or Amazon. Not sure who’s cheapest to be honest 🤷🏻♂️
Hi mate nice video, what headlights have you upgraded with?
Cheers mate, thanks for watching! Got the Osram night breaker laser bulbs installed, you going to upgrade yours?
@@matimcfetridge yeah for sure, did you manage to get a fix on the indicators? I’m thinking to just get some chrome bulbs

Just buy the EV variant… it’s better.
Congratulations Matt, the first stage of ruining a decent little motor!
