Finally got the Newsouth pod and boost gauge. Not a bad bit of kit. Since its vacuum formed, it's not perfect, a few gaps and rounded edges around the hole left usually filled with the vet cover. Must fix the gauge buzzing...totally forgot to add a bit of polyester fill inside the boost hose before fitting. The "indigo" led back light is a perfect match to the dash.


Had new shoes fitted too.
Falken 453's fitted all 'round.

Started the DSG gear indicator project. Tapped into the Can bus system by way of the instrument cluster wiring harness.
This is me physicing myself up to cut into the cables..."Don't F it up"

Can High done

VW Can Bus geek fest.

How do you mod the city light? Can you have both or just one or the other? I cant seem to find instructions on how to do theseOriginally posted by Roadkill View PostHad new brakes and springs installed, and did an LED conversion on the interior, reverse and parking lights.

The front parking lights? I didn't do them myself, but apparently you can get to them through the front wheel well. Not sure what you mean by one and not the other, but the other light is the reverse light, totally different thing.'06 MkV .:R32 DSG

The parkers are changed via the headlight, not the wheel well. All you do is pop the middle cap off the headlight and pull the parker bulb holder out and exchange it for a new one.
Here's a guide for you, it's incredibly simple: VWVortex.com - DIY: City Light Bulb InstallDriver Motorsport Tuned | Melbourne Car Meets | Insta: @VLNTVADERR
