    I added the mirrors with the blinkers to my 15 Jetta S. OEM units off an SEL and I even found my paint code!
    Plug and play, no coding and they look SO cool..
    Oh, they were junkyard parts, not new..

      I’ve been wanting to do that. How did you wire them? I can’t imagine they left the wiring harness in the door

      @@MK6CHRIS you just unplug the connector on your plain black mirror and then plug it into the painted blinker version mirror and it works!
      There’s no extra wiring required...

    Hey Chris, thanks so much for all the great videos on the MK 6 Jetta. I got the 1.4T and have started doing some mods to the car. Quick question.. Did you remove the insulation hood just to hear the intake and engine a bit more? What was the reasoning behind removing that?

    • @MK6CHRIS

    Bruhhhh you didn’t need to take the whole bumper off you can take the t25s out the 4 on the top and use a plastic tool to remove the side under the light and slowly pull it out super easy I have a 2015 tdi

    • @MK6CHRIS
      @MK6CHRIS  3 роки тому +2

      That's what I thought! I tried and almost broke it a few times. Apparently mine is clipped in good to the bumper, so I had to take it off. That was easier for me.

      I'm getting ready to do this on my 2016 jetta and I really want to avoid removing the bumper. Any tips? Ordered some plastic tools to get that part under the light. Still worried about trying to get the grill to pop out without the bumper. If you happen to see this I'd take any links to tools you used to get this done without the bumper. Any help at all is appreciated

    Do you have any issues with rain getting over your intake now that it's more exposed? Great video fyi!

    • @MK6CHRIS
      @MK6CHRIS  4 роки тому +1

      Jason R I was so concerned about that. But I actually don’t . The angle of the grille and how far the intake is back prevents the rain from getting near it

      If you notice, this is a GLI grille. All mk6 parts are interchangeable. Depending on pre/post facelift.
