They are very nice to have I think. I was always worried about hitting things and this has helped. I think it helps on gas mileage too. Only a little harder to do an oil change.

@@wizbang16 it worked out great. I should have done it sooner. The plastic pump was broken so it needed to be done. Car heats up inside a lot better too.

It would be kind of fun to do. But I want to get my bus done more.

It wasn’t too bad. I’m moving slow so a couple hours.

I’ve always wanted to go to Argentina. Thanks for the comment.

It was totally the part that was the rattle. Replaced that and the shock and it’s like new.

Thanks. Would you get a cheap one on rockauto or a better one. I was looking at kyb mount and shocks. I’m planning on keeping the beetle. Thanks again!

Sadly the hammer trick didn’t work for me. I was able to extract them. Thanks for commenting!

I was able to drill them out and use an extractor to finally get them out. Took awhile. Thanks for commenting. And reminding me of that tool.

Sadly I never got it to work as someone broke the camera off before I figured it out. Sorry

I’ll have to take a look for that. Thanks!

@@eliaspeschke4173 it came in the kit. If I remember right I ended up super gluing them in.

@@JohnHasABug ah okay thx. They are Not included in my Set thats the Problem Right now

@@eliaspeschke4173 if you look at the one you are replacing you probably could use the stock ones.

It Worked, i printed holders. Which Tool did you use to remove the holder of the ac ?

@@eliaspeschke4173 not sure what you mean. I used a star screwdriver and a hack saw. Not sure it was right but worked for me. Glad you were able to print the part.

I’ll look at that. Thanks

It does but I thought if that was leaking it would show up behind this area.

@@JohnHasABugThe drainage through the a pillars sometimes get leaky. Had the same issue with a golf iv

@@luistavares2424 it’s weird because it’s been pretty dry for awhile here in Montana. I’ll have to check the door rubber. I haven’t done that yet. Thanks.

I’m not sure what more I can show. I didn’t show me lifting it out of the car but I did show what you need to do to remove the rear panel. If I remember correctly the rear seat moves around a bit to make it easier to remove the panel. Sorry you didn’t find my video helpful.

@@staciemcclain5733 I wish I had moved the flashers. I didn’t want to spend the money at the time for the switch. But the plug they supplied bothers me.

Using number 3 as my winter tires. What color is your 99?

You are right. I used the bolts from the 350/headers. They are much shorter than the stock exhaust bolts.

@JohnHasABug yes sir, u need the longer manifold bolts. FYI a factory 305 head will not accept any other sbc exhaust manifold has a different bolt pattern an exhaust port placement.

@@stevehilligoss4982 you are awesome! I was worried. Thanks for commenting and easing my mind.

​@@JohnHasABug just make sure you get the proper gear oil in there.

Don't be afraid to add a 1/2 of a qt extra on top of recommended fluid capacity. Been doing it for over 30 years and everyone who has taken my advice has had longer lasting bearings and seals.

Thanks!

@@SmoothBrain23 do you have a brand you like best? Thanks!

Sadly my console didn’t have the plug so I did this. th-cam.com/video/-K9ipzuHFuI/w-d-xo.htmlsi=xt_GEvWiYUQswo3L

Yes to the newer style console. Much better cup holders.

They are amazing cars.

Make sure the old o ring is out? You don’t want two. If that’s not your problem then it might be you just need to be clean it a bit more. There isn’t much of a lip for it to sit on. Good luck!

Hi. I’m in Montana. Why?

I don't find any auto shop to fix the display on my vw new beetle

@@PushparajKrishnan do you have a car toys near you? Maybe they would.

Hey a fellow yellow beetle.

@@JohnHasABug hi

Not sure what you mean but hopefully this will help. th-cam.com/video/AM4XiMohQec/w-d-xo.htmlsi=viJVL_gpUAwcMWX-

@@JohnHasABug thank you, I'm trying to figure out the order basically of the washer and spacer on the bolt. I worked on it so long today but my brain isn't working i guess.

When I look at mine. It’s a cap then the bolt then the metal bracket then plastic cover then a plastic pipe then it goes into the side panel. Good luck!

@@JohnHasABug Thank you so much!

They are 16 inch.

I’m liking that one too!

They definitely make the beetle look better. Also nice to have since the headlights aren’t the best. Good luck!

@@JohnHasABug I agree, thank you 🙂

I’ve picked up doors with the hatch open and the seats down. Great little car. Great Danes are cool.

That’s great!

This video shows more. th-cam.com/video/W2mWNVaVoH8/w-d-xo.htmlsi=UTSxe2oX5GDl9RTK

@@JohnHasABug awesome thank you! that’s what i was thinking to do as well too but couldn’t/ can’t find screws long and skinny enough to fit to hold it together. Any suggestions by any chance?

@@_dessing_4970 I forget what I did back there. It’s very tight you might be able to just place it in since it’s molded and it might stay. I get most of my hardware are Ace hardware. Not sure if you have one of those. If I remember right stock the screws come from the front and with the kit they have to come from the back of the controls. I hope that helps. Kinda hard to explain.

@@JohnHasABug yeah that’s what I thought too but it’s not acting like it’s not going to stay put so I’m probably gonna have to screw it because mine isn’t molded in there either. 🙄 I’m so close to having it done and your videos have helped so much! Wish me luck.

Thankfully my clips are ok. I’ve been replacing a lot of plastic with aftermarket aluminum parts.

Sorry I’m in Montana. You should try and do it yourself. Just be prepared for a several day project. Good luck!

@@JohnHasABug thank you

I have this: th-cam.com/video/W2mWNVaVoH8/w-d-xo.htmlsi=fTmJ_ZgtDTZD2H97

If you have a stock radio you probably will need an antenna adapter/booster thing. Good luck!

I’m pretty sure I did when I installed it. Sadly it’s been awhile. I did some troubleshooting and couldn’t figure it out. Then sadly the camera broke off. So it’s not going to be fixed anytime soon. Thanks for the comment. Hopefully it will help someone else out.

Apart from connecting to the "back" or "reverse" signal wire on the back of the head unit, you should also connect the signal wire on the RCA cable at the back to the reverse light power.

Yep. I finally have heat. I also think the cooling is better. Seems like it runs better too.

That’s funny. To bad the smoke is so bad. Are you the older bug that passed me?
