What have you done to your mk4 (golf/bora) today?

[Jeeren]

Thanks Tomtom,
I'm loving every bit of it so far!

I'll post up some pics during/when the brakes are done, but in the mean time here's a crappy phone pic

Looks nice with the darker wheels.

Just so you know, the original caliper colour is Jazz Blue, not the Deep Blue Pearl colour.

[Jeeren]

I did read that somewhere, and the original R32 show car was in jazz blue too?
but i think it would look uber cool with the DPB

I replaced the broken gear shift linkage rod that fell off while driving in traffic

Replaced all interior bulbs with LEDs.. (besides the ones on the doors..) Much crisper!

How do i get into those door lights? didn't really investigate. but i'm sure somebody might know..

from memory careful work with a screw driver down the side.

I pulled all my seats out to make my 2lt even faster!!
Then gave it a quick vacuum

Attached some p plates and I got a birthday present fitted a few days ago, nice new head unit

Down the side of the actual door light? (like the main dome lights) or the side of the door..? that seems like a stupid question but i just have to check.. don't want to bugger anything up!!

cheers mate

[dylan8]

oh sorry. Just re read that...
The lights in the lower of the door card i gather Just the light cover needs to come off, door card can stay on.
Heres a rear view of he door card light cover
...so there is two tabs at each end, i think i only used 1 though.

Is that the one you were after? or the one above the rear doors?


Congrats Cookie! Guessing that means Happy Birthday also?!

[audi-tone]

I always find it hard to get the light cover off so I undo the screws along the bottom and just pry the bottom of the door card off and get to the back of it and depress the tabs on the sides and push the light assembly out.

[Roache]

Cheers mate, i'm fairly sure that's it, its on both driver and passenger side front doors. Its half red and half white? just wanting to chuck a White LED in there mate.

And Happy Birthday Cookie!?, Your 2.5 months ahead of me!



Cheers for the info audi-tune!!

[dylan8]

Some places suggest door card off, but i didnt have too. 1 side was worse then the other. Yeah just the white/red light that lights up the ground and warns other drivers there is a open door.
I put white LEDs in mine also. Very happy with them, althought my car does have a fit from time to time and all my LED interiors go half strength or completely off when they should be on. But id say thats my car rather then the globes.

[Cookie28]

Haha thanks for the birthday wishes guys and it was indeed my birthday yesterday drove to school after my test and then had a car full on the way home and I'm doing the same again today so much fun not having my um sitting next to me

That's a really good idea, also if you leave you lights on you probably won't wake up to a flat battery

[Roache]

Finished the installs of all LEDS interior and the exterior number plate lights. Feels like a new car already. ha.
Not sure if anyone's interested enough but I can get some pics.. not fussed.

Does anyone know the ave price for Parkers and headlights? just to give us an idea.. Cheers
