hi, this is an awesome mod, exept it didnt work for me :(, well it did, kind of. i switched the black box for the white one, but as soon as i plugged it in, it started smoking. the alarm still works and it lets me start the relearn process, but it just doesnt connect to the new fob, im assuming something fried inside the box, was hoping maybe u could help me shed a light on what the issue might be. again thanks for the video/tip on the mod. id really to make this work.
Thanks man! Awesome video, my brother actually just picked up one of these for my car today and gave it to me! I'm going to try and use one of the mk4 switchblade type key fobs and get a key made for it! Thanks for the help!

my jetta is a wolfburg edition 1999, it came with the whitebox but it seems like the OG owner lost the fob, sadly recently the alarm would go off by it's self and would not turn off. had to remove the alarm box and uhm... apperantly the OG owner had done some goofy stuff to the starter where it literally jumps over the clutch safe and straight up start the engine. yes. i can turn on my Jetta in gear, it sux sometimes but it saved me once when the starter got stuck and i was in a hill. ig y'all can imagine the rest.
Installed a module from a 98 tdi, went to do procedures and it beeps but doesn't respond to the aftermarket banjo remote, any thoughts? From what I've read thr fcc I'd numbers have to match but obviously not the case for universal or aftermarket remotes? Thanks
@@karelvvv Karel , all MK3 had vacum pump , and the keyless works with that system , I have a 98 Golf mk 3 since new from the factory that came with keyless “banjo style” fob like in this video .
I cant find that white box i only find the black bos and that partnumber but is that white box only in the us or also in germany? And can somebody pls help and maybe send an ebay link or the part number of the white box?
I have 1996 mk3 golf and I cannot insert my key to driver side but passenger side only. Driver side door can be only opened from inside by pulling the lock up. Will it work using the passenger lock and doing the same thing there?

@@thatbush7166 thanks man. I bought a universal keyless entry system. Once It dies, I will be finding the oem system.
My favorite model was euro lip and euro tag plate
What is that part called? The white box ? Also.. do you have to change the latch actutor to the ones with power lock?
What is the range on the keyless entry? Because mine does not work unless I'm really close to the car.

Any mk3 really
will this work on a 1992 golf mk3 gl 1.9td?
yes if it has central locking and alarm , if not , it would not work .
Why wouldn't this work with the existing black box? Is it because the black box has no door lock feature? Thanks!
Correct
@@DistinctTuning do we have a part number for the white box? I see some on eBay but they're silver with a white decal

can i make this work on a golf 3,5 cabrio 1900 TDI?

No it would not work . Fix the driver side , so you can insert your key , then it would work .
My 98 MK3 Jetta GLX had that setup
Showed this to my friend.
Now his '97 Mk3 has full kamei trims (That Mk3 is one of the last hatchbacks ever made tbh).
Can you use any other regular brand fob or does it hwve to be and look like the one you use
i doubt this workd on a CL hahah

What mk3 keys don't have chips
Link to the fob?
Nice little mod!
Would this method work for a 96 VW Golf?
yes if it came with central locking and alarm !
Hey buddy. Do you know if the alarm box comes on the 2000-2001 Cabríos? I know they are technically 3.5s
That idk
It’s standard equipment in 2001 for sure
You have a video on how to kill the chime?
Just look at fuse box one relay has a speaker pull it and throw it away lol
Where did you get those door handles?
Wrapped them
Bought the same fob and tried. Doesn't work 😪
Do you have a white box
