I took the airbag out of my Cobalt with battery power. Talk about sketchy. So excited you're finally doing all the things you talked about doing to your Jetta! Such a clean example and it's about time she got the love she deserved.
My dad has an 04 gli in grey with the 6 speed vr6. I liked it so much, I ended up getting a 04 GTI vr6 6speed. His is worse for wear now, we're planning to restore it in the next few years. Good luck with your gli brotha
I have a TT-RS and I may get a compliment on it here and there, I also have an ‘04 GTI 24V and I get waves and thumbs up and people asking me about it every time I drive it. Dude in a 720S pulled up next to me at a light and told me how much he loved it and bro was driving a $350k car lol.
Common W Dakota Upload! My favorite thing you did by far was the steering wheel! My protege has a "3 spoke" and it looks so clean. Your new "3 spoke" steering wheel looks worlds better. Definitley looking forward to more jetta content, this is gonna be a fun series!
Even if you dont live where it snows, still clean the fender liners. I'm in cali where it never rains and found so many wet and decomposted leaves in my fender liner and unibody rails behind the fender lol
Ayyy! OneLoveAutoGroup shoutout! Got more than a few cool items from them for my own MK4 project. TLCTMotorWorks in Hagerstown, MD also got some sweet special edition MK4 stuff too if you're lookin to jazz it up. Can't wait to see more of this series!
Great video dude, she looks refreshed! When I bought my car I went through it with a fine tooth comb lol. Detailed everything. ALWAYS feels great afterwards :)
Inspiring video!! When doing your fenders next time wash the metal down good, let it dry and spray some fluid film in rockers!! It will help prevent any rust. I do that with my vehicles and equipment every year.
Thats funny i said an air freshener on ur last post as a mod i like and u ended the video with an air freshener. My first choice was an engine swap and u also ended ur clip stating an engine swap woulda be great lol good stuff man. It was entertaining. That steering wheel definitely modernized the whip.
A good way to make sure that latent batteries and other circuits that store power on cars is to touch the positive and negative battery wires together. It’ll cause most things to use up their tiny remaining power to guarantee the airbag does not go off
i had a 2002 jetta gls in silver. lost in a few months in due to poor weather conditions and me thinking i was in tokyo drift even though i was in a fwd car. anyways i went on to own an 04 golf 2 door also a 2.slow. the gli five spokes you have i had aquired to put on the original jetta i finally got tires on and slapped them on my golf. hit a pothole and cracked a wheel not even 3 days in on a rainy day. always nice to see someone running them it brings me back. I miss having a volkswagen
I had an 04 24v gli in reflex silver that was my daily. Best and most fun car I have ever owned by far and I own a mk7 gli now. 24v is such a rewarding and fun motor even only with 200hp. Keep this absolute gem of a mk4 but you should definitely do the 04+ trim and cluster
Oh man. The hand break. I’m pretty sure yours used to be silver. My ‘03 gli was until the chrome started cracking. It was sharp and kept getting worse till I tore it the rest of the way off. Now mine looks exactly like yours.
😂 Man I can’t tell you how much it bothered me every time getting the car and that thing staring me down. Bought an entire hand brake just because of that yellow tooth
I’ll give VW an award of complicated names lol, but the dash lights 😂. I thought it was babied! 😅 The mouse in the liner, omg 😮. Also the strawberry lemonade air freshener haha. I do actually need to clean my car, thanks for the reminder.
on the topic of "Daily Mods". after having an aftermarket Turbo outlet pipe for over a year, think im taking it off for daily reason. just a bit too much turbo sound to CONSTANTLY hear. still keeping the APR CAI and throttle pipe to start out with. searching for the next car, but cant find a VR6 A3 near me
I hear ya! Daily’s definitely have a different way to mod them which is why I thought this series would be fun. Some stuff you’d do to the fun car just doesn’t cut it for the daily
Great Video! Quick question where did/can you find armrest and floor mats etc cause I have the same car and I want to replace and renew things but I don’t know where to Find/Buy at?❤
Im curious now if you kept the parts you took out, like i for some reason do a "i might need to put this back in" thing with mine. I replaced my automatic shit knob with a billetworkz one and the oem assembly is still hanging out in my tool box as well as the front license plate mount i deleted. I did throw out the chrome grille very quickly, hate chrome grilles.
I think all that rust in and outside your car is a great annoyance!!! Hopefully you can solve this for a bargain price. Good luck with your car, and have fun driving!!!! Greetings,,,, Walter, also one of your fellow road users 👍👍👍😄🖐🖐🖐
I have a golf mk4 2 door which we didn't get in South Africa needs a lot of work .... Send the old steering wheel to me for my build lol... SUBCRIBED!!!!
Was that car in an accident cuz that’s the incorrect steering wheel. GLI’s came with the same 3 spoke the GTI’s did so that airbag had to have gone off I’m assuming.
THANK YOU for being here and checking out the new series! Next episode is on the way and will be out next week :)
Welcome my man. Always will support u.
love the idea for this series, taking care of the daily actually feels better than modding it sometimes. this is a great reminder
No...Thank YOU for being here!
This car has the potential to turn into something special. Please more VW content.🙏 We need more quality youtubers like you in the VW community.
Thank you! I’m dropping another episode next week!
That first section, "the breakdown"
Bro got us sweating with that VW Jetta.
I can’t even explain to you how much I sweat in this Jetta filming this video. I think I naturally reconditioned the leather seats
The steering wheel makes all the difference. Actually a nice upgrade
It really does. Love a mod that can change the look, and feel of a car
I'm so happy to see someone making normal car content. I've been following you since FI. Keep it up.
Thank you very much for this comment 🙌🏻 it means a ton
I'm ready and excited for this series
🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
I took the airbag out of my Cobalt with battery power. Talk about sketchy. So excited you're finally doing all the things you talked about doing to your Jetta! Such a clean example and it's about time she got the love she deserved.
Omg Mike lol. Thanks homie! With every episode I filmed I’ve started getting more and more attached to this car. I’m really enjoying it!
Awesome video! cannot wait for more vw content
NEXT WEEK NEW EPISODE! 🙏🏻
Great first episode. Looking forward to what comes.😊
Glad you enjoyed!
Keeping my daily clean is a definite must.
Yes jetta content!!! Can't wait for this series, and I remember how much dirt and leaves were in my rocker panel when I removed my fender liner... 🤣
Absolutely insane how they build up haha. A must do for VW owners
Love the before and after part to show the changes in comparison 👏🏻 can’t wait to see what’s next 🤩
Thank youuuuu! ❤️
My dad has an 04 gli in grey with the 6 speed vr6. I liked it so much, I ended up getting a 04 GTI vr6 6speed. His is worse for wear now, we're planning to restore it in the next few years. Good luck with your gli brotha
That is so fricken cool to hear! Appreciate that, hope you guys enjoy your VR6s and the restore goes well!
Start accumulating and storing parts away now ,trust me.
Love that you’re building a MK4, I picked one up about a month ago and love it. VR6 all day🤙🏼
Ayyyyy! VR6 gang! 🤜🤛
@@DakotaStone yessir, what’re you driving to Gat?
I have a TT-RS and I may get a compliment on it here and there, I also have an ‘04 GTI 24V and I get waves and thumbs up and people asking me about it every time I drive it. Dude in a 720S pulled up next to me at a light and told me how much he loved it and bro was driving a $350k car lol.
i have two mk4 gtis 1.8t and 24v vr6. love em both!!! its about time you rub that dub!
Oh hell yes! I miss my 1.8t, but have been enjoying the vr6! Both great platforms
Common W Dakota Upload! My favorite thing you did by far was the steering wheel! My protege has a "3 spoke" and it looks so clean. Your new "3 spoke" steering wheel looks worlds better. Definitley looking forward to more jetta content, this is gonna be a fun series!
Driving with it everyday has made me appreciate it a ton. Really prefer the 3 spoke. Thanks for watching!
Bro I love this series. I literally lol’d and makes me feel better about the little things that i do with my daily.
Makes me so damn happy to hear that. Glad you enjoyed Dan!
Love seeing content on the mk4! Mk4 kid for life!
Mk4 gangggg! 🤜🤛
Yes Dakota love the series😅
Love to hear it 🙏🏻
Love the first video man! Can’t wait to see the next!
So happy you enjoyed man! Stay tuned, next week we’ll have a new episode!
Great video! Excited to see the rest of the series!
Thank you! New episode next week! 💪
Even if you dont live where it snows, still clean the fender liners. I'm in cali where it never rains and found so many wet and decomposted leaves in my fender liner and unibody rails behind the fender lol
Good call. Crazy how much debris these get. Bad design 😭😅
@@DakotaStone Oh I don't even drive a VW. That was in my fr-s lmao. Makes me wonder how many cars are driving around with full fenders
@@mrminerniner6153I am now deeply worried about my Impreza 😂
Ayyy! OneLoveAutoGroup shoutout! Got more than a few cool items from them for my own MK4 project.
TLCTMotorWorks in Hagerstown, MD also got some sweet special edition MK4 stuff too if you're lookin to jazz it up.
Can't wait to see more of this series!
Ive bought so many parts from OneLove, really like going through them. Ill check out TLCT too!
Great video dude, she looks refreshed! When I bought my car I went through it with a fine tooth comb lol. Detailed everything. ALWAYS feels great afterwards :)
That's the best way to do it!
Love this car content, can’t wait for more :)
THATS WHAT I LIKE TO HEAR 🤝
This is the kind of content I want to see more of this is amazing
Love to hear it!! New episode next week 🤜🤛
We need more!!!!
Super clean man and good content.
Something I really enjoy watching.
So awesome to hear, thank you! Next episode is cooking right now and will drop this coming week! 🧑🍳
This is making me miss my 2.slow 2002 Jetta. Such a great platform.
Something charming about them haha. Fun cars.
Your automotive content is so funny man. The placement of all the clips/memes/noises *chefs kiss*
Glad you’re enjoying it hahaha 🙌🏻 Happy some people have the same type of humor
Inspiring video!! When doing your fenders next time wash the metal down good, let it dry and spray some fluid film in rockers!! It will help prevent any rust. I do that with my vehicles and equipment every year.
Great tip!
Great video, looking forward to the next episode!
Next weeeeeek!!! 💪

I couldn’t believe the coincidence when you commented that haha. Of course it was already filmed so what are the odds lol
Great video Dagoata🐐. Looking forward to more dub content👍
Haha thank you! Stay tuned for next week! More mods on the way 🫡
A good way to make sure that latent batteries and other circuits that store power on cars is to touch the positive and negative battery wires together. It’ll cause most things to use up their tiny remaining power to guarantee the airbag does not go off
You definitely inspired me to clean my Daily. Thanks Dakota 🙌🏻 Excited to see more of thesw
Hell yeah! New episode next week!
Loved the video Dakota! Looking forward to the next one 🫡
Makes my day to hear that! New episode next week! 💪
Really excited for the next episodes 🔥🔥

This comment means a ton, thank you!
Keep going with the Jetta !
Will do! New episode next week!
Thank you dude this series is gonna rule
Hell yeah! 🙌🏻
Loved it man! Make sure to refurbish/replace the headlights next. Not having cloudy headlights anymore made me enjoy my car so much more
Absolutely! Check out my shorts, you and me think alike! 🤔
This video was amazing, gonna go clean my car now. More of this Dakota!
Let’s gooooo!!! So happy to hear that!
Nice off to a good start 🙌🏽
🙌🏻
14:45 when a was trying to take out my 4 spoke wheel for the first time it literally took me 2 hours just to get the springs off the airbag
i had a 2002 jetta gls in silver. lost in a few months in due to poor weather conditions and me thinking i was in tokyo drift even though i was in a fwd car. anyways i went on to own an 04 golf 2 door also a 2.slow. the gli five spokes you have i had aquired to put on the original jetta i finally got tires on and slapped them on my golf. hit a pothole and cracked a wheel not even 3 days in on a rainy day. always nice to see someone running them it brings me back.

New content! Love your channel dude!
Thank you so much! Appreciate you watchin
Great content keep up the good work
Thank you so much! 🤝
Commentary is great
🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
Fire. Needa Jetta back in my life
👏🏻
Oh so that's why my rockers are rusting out. Thank you for the info!!
You bet!
A clean car gives more smile per gallon 🚗💥💨🔥
It make me h a p p y
What a great video everyone can do!
🤝🤝🤝
Can’t wait to see what else you do with it… hopefully a wheel slap in the future for this one 👀
I hope so too🤞
@@DakotaStone something like the old gli bbs type of wheel 👌🏼
Diggin it Dakota! Give the paint job a nice run over with a clay bar, seal her up and that paint job will be slappin!!
It honestly needs even more than a clay bar haha but we will get there!
Great video! Keep it up
Thanks brotha!
Woo Dakota content!
Ayyy 🎉
Les goo daddy Dakota posted a new vid! Also I love the cut clip to the snow plop 🤣
❄️💥 That was cold af lol
Spray on glass clean is at Walmart works so good
oh I torn apart the center console because it started to crack and so, inspiration to get new ones for the old good jetta 🙌
Is that a track from WipEout during the "CRUSTY Interior" chapter? Right on!
I had an 04 24v gli in reflex silver that was my daily. Best and most fun car I have ever owned by far and I own a mk7 gli now. 24v is such a rewarding and fun motor even only with 200hp. Keep this absolute gem of a mk4 but you should definitely do the 04+ trim and cluster
Thing was absolutely dumped as low as I could go static too lol
Oh man. The hand break. I’m pretty sure yours used to be silver. My ‘03 gli was until the chrome started cracking. It was sharp and kept getting worse till I tore it the rest of the way off. Now mine looks exactly like yours.
RIP that mouse. Very honorable of you to take care of him like that. :')
It’s funny I bought a 04 TDI Jetta 5 spd right before you bought this Jetta and I just got around to making mine a Gud daily too
the armrest phone call be wildin XD
📞 😳
smokers tooth had me
😂 Man I can’t tell you how much it bothered me every time getting the car and that thing staring me down. Bought an entire hand brake just because of that yellow tooth
Wasn’t expecting the edp reference lol
I grabbed a framed one of those when BT location closed I can understand why you tossed it though 😅 8:37
I love the art, but this is actually the second one I have haha
@@DakotaStoneI also grabbed a “magazine cover” poster that has you gels and Alex maybe I can get you guys to sign it one day lol
Let’s go!❤
Yooooooo, so happy to see this thing getting love.
Also,
hi im dave
THERE IS THE MAN, THE MYTH, THE PREVIOUS OWNER! I mention you quite a bit in this series 😅😅
Hopefully it's not all bad 🤣 glad you're keeping up on cleaning the fender spot
Great video
Thank you!
About time you got back to uploading videos holy shit.......
😅
I doubt it's cheaper but that stuff the same as the motocraft glass cleaner we have as a ford tech it slaps
Ooo might have to give that a go sometime
I’ll give VW an award of complicated names lol, but the dash lights 😂. I thought it was babied! 😅 The mouse in the liner, omg 😮. Also the strawberry lemonade air freshener haha. I do actually need to clean my car, thanks for the reminder.

Not the daily, but it’s inspiring me to go fix the turn signals on my foxbody.
The Jetta started paying YOU for paying attention to it 😂
It really did 😅
that is a sick ass jetta my dad has a 93 corrado and the jetta reminds me of it with the vr6 and the black love the car
Lets Gooo!
Ayyy Kota! 👋
@@DakotaStoneit looks like this is going to be an awesome series! I say get headlights ASAP tho.
Those close ups of the grunge though 🤑
It was rough haha
I bought a Miata cuz of you and gels lol 😂 thanks a lot.
🫶
Great Video! Quick question where did/can you find armrest and floor mats etc cause I have the same car and I want to replace and renew things but I don’t know where to Find/Buy at?❤

I do keep some stuff for awhile. Like a car part hoarder.. for some reason I feel ill need it or can sell it 😅
@@DakotaStone good to know I'm not alone in that then 😂
Buy a headlight restoration kit. Completely de-fogs the headlighta for such a low cost
I now dub thee the MKIV Sweatta :)
the new car bit had me snorting xD
Where did you get the steering wheel and Ebrake ? Thanks
Please continue the series
I’d love to! Anything you’d personally like to see done to the Gud Daily?
I literally just bought a mk4 gti 12v vr6. Im looking to go vrt… maybe you should too😳
That would be fantastic.. just expensive to have done right. Congrats on the pickup!
I think all that rust in and outside your car is a great annoyance!!! Hopefully you can solve this for a bargain price. Good luck with your car, and have fun driving!!!! Greetings,,,, Walter, also one of your fellow road users 👍👍👍😄🖐🖐🖐
15:08 Killed me bro 😂
😂😂
Funniest video I've seen in a minute 😂👍
Hahaha glad you liked it! 😄
dang, what foam cannon do you use?
It’s a Giraffe tools pressure washer!
My general rules for modifying my DD's is no power mods. I'm also known for breaking rules.
sometimes ya gotta break the rules a lillll bit
I have a golf mk4 2 door which we didn't get in South Africa needs a lot of work .... Send the old steering wheel to me for my build lol...
SUBCRIBED!!!!
Was that car in an accident cuz that’s the incorrect steering wheel. GLI’s came with the same 3 spoke the GTI’s did so that airbag had to have gone off I’m assuming.
Incorrect. This is a 2002 GLI that came with this steering wheel.
@ Gotcha. It’s probably the first thing I would have done as well. 1000x better
Where can I get myself one of those HKS flags though
Right hurrr amzn.to/3Lz8An0
My car always feels faster after a good clean and buff. It’s all in my head, or is it?
You’re 100% right
If I didn't live all the way in Scotland. Id send out an oem leather armrest cover that ive got lying about
It’s the thought that counts 🥹
