In this video, I show you how to make your VW Golf V interior look like new again.
I ordered all the parts from AliExpress With just $65 including shipping costs, the shipping time was 20 days but it was worth the wait, the pieces fit and work perfectly.
The replacement lasted almost two hours.
The car belongs to my father, it was a great surprise for him to see 15-year old parts look like the day he bought the car.

Yeah, this is pretty much what my car looks like on the inside (also a Golf 5). I read on a forum somewhere that VW was stingy when it came to the materials in the interior for generations 4 and 5. This has supposedly been fixed with generation 6, though I can't personally confirm that as I've only ever driven the 5th generation.
It's mostly the soft touch gunk that will, inevitably, start coming off.
Who's car was that, Wolverines?!
Every VAG car ends up like that. In time the rubber coating is getting weaker and easily peelable/scratchable . Mine was a little worse.
@@funkblack i drive 2006 golf and it looks nothing like that. Ruber on handles sucks and thats a fact, but all switches looks normal
Saturnian Pytonwielki it was pretty common for vag in that time period to use a special kind of coating that wears off soooo easily... it surely looked great when new but that's pretty much it
It happened in older VW's from mid 2000's when drivers used some types of hand cremes and products. Mostly women caused the erosion of the rubber coating on the plastics.
Lmfao
Video was great but i had to break my speakers due to your music
Wasnt that bad?
I like this song whats the name of it
@@AltijdMatthijs Darude - Sandstorm
Chingy474 Nope
Yeah music was so bad, so i just muted it and played Devil Trigger. Much more pleasant to look at afterwards :)
I used all these parts in my gti as well and i love them. They work good were super cheap, And loog and work just as good as the OEM parts
rly satisfying i got this car myself and am about to change out all the interior very helpful vid for showing the disassembly :)
For $65 it looked pretty good 👍
thanks a lot, my car has 255000km and is exactly in the same state which is really annoying as the engine is still going strong. Thanks for the tips and links!
The first time nobody commented "sOnG nAmE?!" in the comments.
This time it's the opposite.
Your comment is in kindergarten
Not bad, never understand how people get them looking so rough though. I have an 11yo golf and all of these parts still look very good other than a couple of small marks on the drivers door handle
I think it's from women's rings and nails my wife drives my car and there the same as in the video
@@dickiedocker also oily hands even if ur hands are "clean"
It's the soft touch material, as soon as any oil or heat or even a strong aftershave can degrade the coating so badly, im sure certain audi cars have the same kind of problem if your not very careful
my Golf 5 is 20 years old ;-)
I had the same interior problems with my golf I totaled it but I would’ve loved to do this to it
I have the MK4 130hp 5 door. Its a good car with stupid endemic failures and the plus failures caused by its age (17). But yes, the quality of the builds and materials (like the "soft touch rubber", the fabric and the glue ) used are trash for sure. But its a car near the 20 years old, and in Spain there are a lot of them nowaday on the road, not for nothing...
Greats from Spain, good video!
How are the pieces? Good quality? Any problems? Thanks
What an awful music choice
Sounds like peanut butter baby
I love my Golf 5
He has never let me down :))
They sure didn't build them like they used to. Hope those aftermarket parts last better.
This is ordinary day in car dealer shops when they prepare some car for sale LOL
The link 4 the shift boot n knob is different to one u install in the vid
The one in the vid had nice red trim n on the link it's a plain one
Where can I get the red trim one it wud look good on my gti
Make sure to clean your parts while they are okay to prevent this. Mine has Zero problems, all original, but I steam clean once a month
Maybe he bought a used golf v in this condition ;)
Can you do an Update how the quality is after using is for a while?
I will do that
Daniel Konrad Agreed i would like to know also
Eventho I don't like some of the stylings it's good to know how to change these interior parts properly.
Ty
What creature from the underworld drove that?
Thats just vw/audi quality of buttons and plastics
Nice, do u remember price of spare parts?
Hi, I buy a vento mk5 and have the same details in the interior. Nice video and thanks for the links 👍
How did you get the headlight switch to come out in one piece? With mine the centre piece keeps popping out but not the exterior housing
Very good video! I did it all but oem, how is your radio? Steering wheel?, wheel caps? Info display? All mine had to be replaced... Its a shame a 31 thousand euros car with this lack of material quality... Its global everybody has this issue! Is a shame! I contacted vw in Portugal and Germany and never got any answer... All my ceiling roof hood carpets were replaced, all doors carpet everything... Total 1200 euros inside, panels, ac vents, buttons etc... And another 1500 outside.. Paint, wheels etc... Beautiful car a child's dream great engine but the worse interior ever! Great video thanks!
The steering wheel has the same problem.
Do they make the control panel/handle for the 2 door Golf MK5? I could not find it on their website.
In 5 series the rubber coating was pretty bad made.. on my 4 series I did spray painted them with normal paint.. the result was pretty good.
No , only until 2005 model Later Models are good Quality!
@@primojackson3270 are you kidding? Me ex girlfriend got the 5 series.. the plastic of the dash was making a lot of noise..
The pioneer radio with Bluetooth mounted by VW absorb electricity when power off, the engine because of the "environment" rules was less powerful.. I can go on and on.. the 4 series got only the support of the windows as common issues.. and the rubber coating on the plastic.. the rest was mint!!
VW Qualität wie bei Lada 👍
replacing mine in January thanks for the tutorial
1:30 can u tell me how to remove it ?? I mean the original as that trick. But how do you remove the fake one do you Know? Can u help me ?
c'mon guys.........; I give a f......what kind of music he is using AS LONG AS the main purpous (= help + info) is accessable ! // put the speakers on "mute" = it is so simple !

Golf's always did have cheap interiors. Shame because they were not that bad to drive. Just everything tends to scuff and fall apart so quickly. Although it is marketed as a budget car so it's forgiveable.
RTSchofield not really golfs always have been high quality cars
But does the auto work? If you didn’t have it from Fatory
What is the name of the clutch clamp on the gearbox? How do I find one to buy? Thanks.
Why is thid so satisfying ?
Did this in my Touran 1T1 but on OEM parts 😉
How much was it?
Can you post link where you buying?
Just go to a VW dealership
Bro you made great work. Nice video.
you shift knob booth doesn't fit, you have the other version, without the plastic around, so now it sticks out and doesn't fit in as it should, so I suggest for others to check before if they have the shift knob booth as he does, with leather ending, no plastic around, don't order the wrong one, altho you're gonna have trouble finding the only leather one..Talking from my experience..
Can u make vw touran mk1
where to buy all these replacements?
Pop down the odometer and here it goes on sale in eastern Europe - "80 000 km, after a doctor from Germany, driven only on Sundays, no investment needed" :D
@dfcgarage Do the replacement parts also have the stupid rubbery texture on them??
How do interiors even get like that? Especially something like the headlight dial. Do people just scratch at it in traffic or something?!
where did you bought these part please ?
Take a look in to the description
How long did this take?
Can you put the link for the pièces on ali express i don't find them, thanks

what did u use to clean ?
Hi, what can be done to change that sprayed on matt finish on the centre consolle, is there a paint technique or similar? it can be seen on the old door handles in your video. After a while it scrapes off very easily and accidentally. Cheers from South Africa
The best way is to change them, the new door Handels from aliexpress will came with a paint matt finish not like the old ones that are coated with a rubber layer
Did you use iron prostetics to handle the buttons?
A?
I know it's an old vid but did U buy it separately or as a complete set ?
I don't off the links that from the description are still working, some of them are sold as a set and some are separated
How you replaced plastic above this things and what is this material?
What plastic from where?
Do you have a link to a set for vw Touran 2005
The owners manual for VW Golf 7 states " clean the interior with a microfiber towel and WATER.... Please do not use chemicals that may interact with heat. Stop eating fried chicken in your cars (these are my suggestions). A damp cloth is all that's needed to clean car dashboard and buttons. Protect the interior from the sun. Cleaning at least once a week is enough better if you can wipe it after every use...
It’s been over a year now how have the Chinese parts held up? I’m in the same boat but bmw instead
Is not mandatory to disassemble the door panel !!! You can mount switch with out this operation
poz where there is that set set to take
Do these parts fit golf 4?
Where did you buy all of it? can someone help me?
You have the links to the parts in the description
Salut,am vazut cand ai schimbat selectorul de lumini,si cel vechi nu a avut modul auto si ai pus un selector cu modul auto poti sa imi spui functioneaza cum trebuie?la butoane geamuri trebuie sa le iau pe cod sau mere variantele 2003-2008?
Does the light switch literally just pull out?
Also: any update?
You have to push the middle part in and turn it to the right a little and then pull out.
If this car is so badly handeled in the inside, what would it be under the enginehood?
lol my mk5 09 gti is mint with that stuff it only began a tiny bit by shifter around the area to flake otherwise its still perfect.
Nice video👍, cute music 😂
One more happy golf on this world
any link for better quality replacement parts?
VW original parts
@@DFCGarage link maybe?
You can find some parts on some German websites but is better to buy them directly from a vw dealership
Newer VW cars suck in terms of interior plastics
My 16 years old mk4 golf still has its original plastics and switches and they're in mint condition
That’s great and great for keeping your breath fresh!
I have an 05 Jetta and the handles look just like that. The buttons on the stereo are worn down to shit too. The previous owner was so rough with this car.
Not the owners are the problem, is a Problem with the coating from this parts
That makes sense. Since it has that soft touch feel to it right?
Sowas sieht man nur beim Golf 😂😂 ein hoch auf die deutsche Automobilindustrie👌🏻
🇸🇪💛
I have a question bro,does that automatic light works
Yes it works
@@DFCGarage and for the dor thing a hava a 2 door golf where can a have those things for a 2 door

GOOD VIDEO!!
Non oem window buttong may not be liked by the cars electric system. Had problems with one of the windows in a short while...
Was it really nessesary to remove the whole door card just to remove the handle?
Optic500 Yea it is.
Wonderful music 💖
Great fun! Outstanding results
i replaced the switches but kept the original plastics, i just sanded the damaged layer then polished them.
Did you use a machine for that? What kind of sandpaper did you use? 1000, 1500?
@@vladgeorge7467 Sanded by hand, cause some spots are quite hard to reach.
it was a while ago, if i remember correctly i started with 600 then 1000, then 1500 and finished with 2000.
(However it depends how bad the damage is, i wouldn't recommend starting with 600 right away, try higher grit first)
Then polished (2 steps) with a machine (i don't have a polisher so i just use regular drill with backing pad adapter)
Do they sell mk4 gti parts
Where can I buy these same things guys please help.
I like the music !
Où on peut trouver toute cette pièces pour golf 5 ceux de golf 6 passe dessus ou pas ?

They are the exactly the same parts of a Vw Touran of 2003? I need to change exactly the same parts of my car but I don't know if they are the same as de Golf V
Headlight switch and the like should be the same.
Are RHD(Right Hand Parts) available!?
But how well do they work?
They work perfectly
Sweet, had thought of doing that to a B6 Passat I had. May meed to do it to my GTi soon.
Hi, i have a polo 6r without coming Home, if i change the lightswitch with auto, does the coming Home work then?
😂
You mean Auto function?
Yes, ofc. If you have auto mode on lightswitch, comung home and leaving home function will work for sure. Im not sure but as long as I heard, cornering function will also work
