Mk4 3 door build thread

Has anyone done this does it work?

By the looks of things I am going to have to change over the whole car loom this weekend as I have two to many plugs in the bulk head. Has any one messed around with the immobilisers on these I have changed the clocks and the chip in the key but the immobiliser keeps on cutting of the fuel pump and the light is flashing in the clocks.

Might be worth chatting to Anthony ( Dubster99 ) as I think he had similar issues at some stage.

[simonglos]

I might have to send him a message kinda leading towards doing the whole loom though as the crashed gti I have has climate control

re. Climate Control

Make sure you grab all the sensors from your donor car too - assuming they're not on the original ...

[simonglos]

Thanks for that, that's going to be a great help

Hey mate hows the progress going on this?

Nice work, looks amazing!

[simonglos]

Sorry I am rubbish at posting haha. I have done tons since the last time I put anything on here. I ended up swapping over the whole loom over in the end and fitting.

Still keen to know how you did the hatch popper. Did you end up getting the 3 button fob too?

[simonglos]

Yeah I bought the kit from Ecs for the popper and then soldered a switch in the key. All the mk4 keys are the same so it is pretty straight forward. The. Bought a 3 button key housing no programming and it works straight away, works a treat

[dubster99]

Deff write a diy on this! How does the switch tell the hatch to pop? Is there something programmed in the ccm?

[simonglos]

You can buy the micro switches of eBay the curcit bored already has the space to solder in the switch. It was preprogrammed into the car, apparently all cars with the two button remotes you can just solder in the switch and it works. I will post up some pics too so you can see what i did.

Nice work dude, let us know if you need any interior things, I have spare GTi seats (front and rear) and a **** tone of trim stuff as well as GTi front brakes once i install my Porsche ones.
