Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before. We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

            not much in a proper tutorial but MCM does a pretty good overview in their mk3 golf video on the basics on how to sorta install coilovers, it's a good idea before you start to just have a quick look.

                Dash lights blew, was in need of an update.


                Broke 2 clips that hold the dash in, i think the last owner ripped apart the whole console and broke every clip and holder, because if it doesn't have a fracture mark, its not there. Hell, he even went to the trouble of cutting of the airbag led... maybe i should look into this...

                Anyway, this was a b**ch to get out!

                I put the new bulbs in and wondered why the colour was still green. Had to take the whole thing out just to remove this stupid colour thing.



                And finally the outcome with the superbright led's in. Looks mint, heaps better than the green.

                And to finalise a little surprise...

                      The model you need is B8.5D
                      Thats the exact replacement LED bulb.
                      The green strip can be removed by simply clicking out the light holder and lifting it out, mine was harder as it had fallen into the actual speedo. Is an easy swap, guide here if you get lost! VWVortex.com - mk3 gauge cluster removal walkthru

                        Do you know how to replace the LCD filter? Read a DIY on it once but it said you needed to remove dials and the LCD's in order to change it :/ URGH!
