    Beautiful build, you should swap some audi a1 s line seats in would make the interior look modern

      I was actually looking at getting some different seats so this is a good shout.
      Do you know if the a1 seats are a straight swap ?

      @@RCS_716yes it is a straight swap others have done it before. I believe plug connectors just need to be swapped as they’re different shape but the wires are the same colour so should be a simple job

    What was the finishing like? Do they look oem or can you tell that they’re an aftermarket mod?

    • @RCS_716
      @RCS_716  Рік тому

      You can tell its aftermarket, mostly during the day time as you can just see the tubes, at night since everything is dark it looks more oem, it would look even better if I didn't cut the small tubes as short because then the corners wouldn't be slightly brighter than the rest of the tube,
      But in short you can tell it's aftermarket but it's harder to tell at night, ez to tell during the day

      You might have to take that to vw themselves, only a true professional with many years in the field can fix an issue like that, way out of my skill level 🤣
      But I put it back the right way round recently so HA!! Can't mock me about it anymore 😝

    I am trying to install the strip, however the space to insert it seems almost glued together making it also impossible to push in the led strip. Any recommendations? I also have a polo 6r (2011)

      Is this on the driver side with the light switch or the passenger side on the glove box ?

    • @RCS_716

      On the glove box side I think you might have to slightly loosen the glove box and put the strip in there, but I felt like that was to far up so I glued mine to the top just above the glove box.
      For the other side you kinda want to slide it in to start then use some sort or prying tool to tuck it into the gap. It's kinda hard to explain so sorry if this didn't help

    What glue did you use to stick it on the glove box?

    • @RCS_716
      @RCS_716  29 днів тому +1

      I used super glue.
      I only used a very small amount spread across it as I didn't want it to be stuck on there too well because if I ever wanted to remove it I wouldn't want it to damage the material beneath it and it would also make removing the glue residue easier.
