Glad I found these videos. Bought a 2015 Scirocco a few months ago as a driving instructor's car and instantly started seeing things I wanted to upgrade. This is one of them. The bonnet on this boy is hefty for some of my learners. This'll make it much easier for them! Gonna watch the rest of the Scirocco videos as I've seen you've got a few more videos relevant to what I need to change. Great content! Thank you!
@@carlubetv My learners adore it! My girlfriend was dubious as well, but she fell in love with it the moment she drove it ❤️ Sadly it's missing a few things I'd like, such as the reverse camera and front fog lights, but I'll be piling in a lot of money to make sure I get exactly how I want it and then hope none of my learners wreck it 😂
@@IndiBrony now it’s becoming winter. I’d be installing some LED headlights for those dark nights. I’ve done a couple of videos on these. Plus Apple CarPlay head unit is one of my favourite auditions. Vids for both things on my channel. 👌🏻
@@carlubetv Already checked them out since watching this video! The headlights need doing anyway as the previous owner tinted them so they're even more useless than standard! Being an instructor I should probably err on the side of legality with my car. I'm looking at Philips Racing Vision GT200s as they seem to be the best reviewed. The head unit looks fantastic as well. I've been quite indecisive on what to do in regards to that because it's been a long time since I replaced a head unit and - as mentioned in the video - I'm also used to the days where you had to do a whole load of wiring to get things working! Seeing how easy that unit was to plug in and play made things a little more bearable. The fact it's basically an android tablet as well means I'll get to sit and watch some TH-cam and stuff between driving lessons 😂 But yeah, looking forward to seeing what else you do with yours!
@@IndiBrony those head units really are easy to use, and if you already have hands-free calling and GPS, you don’t have to do the extra things I had to do. I took that head unit out of my old Shocco and put it in my new one and it took literally 10 minutes. Thanks for watching mate, if you haven’t already done so do you want a couple of the Scirocco Facebook groups, they are quite helpful.
Great video, certainly a mod I will be doing to my Scirocco R, in regards to your wing mirrors electrically folding in, I have the option on the dial on the inside of the door on mine that allows you to fold them. However they dont fold automatically when you lock the car like they do on the Golf R. Can you do an updated video with your Carly device to see what new options are available with the R compared to your last Scirocco. Keep up the great content.
@@DGMcreative thanks mate, and thank you for showing off that you’ve got the option I wanted lol I actually didn’t see an option in the Carly app to change any options for the wing mirrors folding or not, so it might not be something they offer .
@carlubetv i have seen it but they dont ship to My country, and there didnt write how long it is :( and i have to make it All by me :).. I already buy 4 of the silver small items to fit the lifters.. And Just need Dimensions so i can buy somwhere... If you can measure it? Please :)

@@IndiBrony thank you very much for your comment, I don’t know if I can imagine one of these cars as a learner car but well done to you!

This video meant alot! I got a scirocco as well and the struts are places on by watching your video.👍👍
@@k2burtonx775 I know mate it might seem a small thing to some, but a massive thing every time you open the bonnet.

I'm now wondering if I can do a mod like this on my fn poo.
Great video James!
Nicely done mate congrats💪🏻
