Many Thanks from Belgium !
Glad I watched your video. Thanks for the help.
VERY WELL EXPLAINED!🙌🏻
Thanks Man.. Just came across.. saved me atleast Rs 200 LoL 😂 DIY
Did this job on a buddys comfortline 2012 this past weekend along with the headlight replacement. Only grouse - these screws are damn expensive. 30 rs each for the 5x16 self tapper and 50 rs for the m6 bolts.
had to buy the self tappers but used equivalent 8.8 gr M6 pooja forge hex head bolts with SS washers from my bolt bin.
Good to hear man. Those screws and bolts are expensive man! Where did you source them from?
@@GaneshBalan the normal japanese type hex head were already available with me. I simply changed all accessible screws. the VW specific ones(N90974701, N90808201 and N10354602) were sourced from boodmo along with some rubber bushes, suspension rubber and brake pads.
Thanks, very useful video
Thank you 🎉
thank you 😊
Cool video ganesh
Excellent - Thanks
You’re welcome. 😊 Please do check out the other clips on the Polo.
thank you, it's very helpful
Thanks man. Appreciate it.
Thank You
Thank you for the appreciation Doc. Please do check out the other clips.
Well done
Hey thanks! 😊 Do check out some of the other clips on the Polo.
Thank you soooo much!
Brilliant video. Kudos.
👍
Hi sir can u post a video for Taigun also? It would b helpful..
Hi, I’ll definitely try. I don’t have an immediate access to a Taigun so will scout around for a car from a colleague or through friends’ friends. If I get hold of one, will definitely do. 👍🏻
Sir, what’s the procedure to remove the fog light trim from Vento (2022) since they have GTI style bumper. The trim does not have a hole but this tool is provided in the kit.
Navmeet, the trim does have a hole. Please recheck.
does the fog lamp need canbus for changing to led lights to makes it works?
Hi VLAD, at least here in India, we don’t have to. High end BCMs can however throw a bulb-out error. Why don’t you try it out?
Hi, is that just an yellow tint ...or an different colour set available in after market?
Just a plain yellow tint. Most accessory shops have this.
For new polo there is no pin hole to pull fog light trim. Is there any other way for newer models?
Hi Ankit, the new facelift with the GTI bumpers have a different method. Check this clip:

Any manual setting for fog lamp leveling?? After bulb replacement?
Or it does not require any manual setting
Hi Mangesh, there’s a plastic screw behind the fog lamp assembly which permits you to do it but once it is set from the factory, you really don’t have to adjust it anymore.
@@GaneshBalan
Thanks for your reply..
So if replace new bulb there is no need to adjust anything..right?
Nope. It’s a fit it and forget it arrangement. 👍🏻
Would like to know if the same method applies for Taigun also ??
Hi Antony. Yes indeed. Have you noticed a small hole in the fog light trim of your Taigun? It can be pulled out to reveal the mounting screws of the fog lamp.
@@GaneshBalan yep.. i just saw that holes .. .. Will try a pull and see...
If i buy the horn and connect with the connector, is it plug and play?
Yes but you’ll need a clamp to secure the horn. Ask the service center for it.

Dude I can’t seem to read your messages. Doesn’t show up. Do ping me on 9099691369. Will delete this message later.
Sir what bulb did you use here? This is an aftermarket bulb right?
Hi Navjit, yes this is a Philips H11 55W bulb. The stock ones I believe are 35W bulbs.
@@GaneshBalan Is it okay to replace it with 55W or we need special setup. Also, I am assuming bulbs shown in video is diamond vision from Philips.
That’s right. You can upgrade the fog lamp bulbs to 55W without the need of any special harness or relays.
H8 can we add LED bulb
Hi Pratap, yes. I had used a pair of H8 LED bulbs before.
Hi, where can we get this pin? Don't find in my tool kit.
It’s there in the standard tool kit on the Polo and Vento. Did you check the styrofoam casing properly?

Yes, I checked it. Probably I may have lost it during the service or while cleaning.
@girishk3433 Alternately you can make one by bending a thick cable using pliers. The type you would use for hanging clothes for drying.
Okay, I will try this method. Thanks a lot for your quick reply and btw the video was helpful.
“Dont worry about the plastic tabs breaking”! 3 of mine broke on 1st attempt! 🙄
Ouch, sorry to hear that man. I hope you didn’t pull it out too fast? Either way, this trim retails for dirt cheap. At least here in India. Where are you located?
Wait... you're kind of cancelling out your light yield by using a blue hue bulb and a yellow lens filter. If you want yellow light, use a clear bulb here.
It was just a bulb swap DIY; not meant to drastically improve the throw or the brightness. But I get your point. Thanks.
