Another great informative video Dom. The Parrott Bros are keeping the TT community motivated and informed like no other, keep up the good work. 👍
Thanks Derek appreciate the kind words 🙂
Love the attention to detail in your vids
Thank you means a lot
This is really the topic i was looking for! Really excited for the details about the DRlights and sweepers. Great video!
Thanks buddy, I do try and
Cover those hot topics where possible 😂
Cant wait for these videos, already have the clear indicators from cloud 9 but very interested in the sequential / daylight system.
Thanks for this info!!
Yeah the clear bezels look ace don’t they, amazing what a simple swap out can do
very helpful vid mate. my lights are hopeless especially the dip. glad to learn of an easy option to sort the problem. thanks dude.
Thanks buddy, unfortunately the mk1 lights leave a little to be desired that’s for sure 😂. I want to look at upgrading the projectors etc but quite costly
I'm doing my lights right now, got a spare set for a good deal. The adjusters as well as the assembly they adjust are prone to cracking or breaking, so be mindful. Changing the color from black to even gunmetal or silver makes a huge difference in the look. You guys are so lucky they didn't stick that huge orange reflector in your housings like they did in the US.
Great vid Dom...glad you aren't selling the TT...phew! looking forward to new content.
I love the clear indicator / DRL / swipe mod, looks smashing.
Yeah that’s what I’m leaning towards I think for mine. Just need to decide silver or grey inner trim
@@TheParrottBros The thing that concerns me is the taking apart the headlight, I'd never re-seal it properly haha
Good video!
Thank you
Братка актуальная тема для ТТ болячка их )))
The only aftermarket thing my TT came with when I bought were headlights and they’re soooo nice, also the mk1 had a lot of good tail light options
Are they similar to the ones shown in the video? What are they like at night?
@@TheParrottBros they are actually similar to stock but they have a different led pattern, I couldn’t find them online when I looked so I’m not sure where they were purchased.
Nice video i think the clear indicater mod is the nicest look on the TT
Yeah it’s a simple clean upgrade I think
@@TheParrottBros for sure
Nice work Dom! I’m surprised with the volume of cars still about there are not many options. I think the after market ones stop it “looking” like a TT if that makes sense!
Yeah I guess it was never a popular option, specially as most tt’s have xenons so not a simple swap over
People also used to do angel eyes conversions to their headlights as DRL's/sidelights which looked very nice - might be another option for a video.
I’ll look into what’s available for that thanks for the heads up
I'm with you Dom, those new headlights look gawdy!! The painted originals look pretty nice. I'm looking for a new set of factory lights. Mine currently has the aftermarkets that leak. 😥
If your I’m based there are plenty of good breakers about. If you need a set email me
And I can point you in the right direction. ( email In video description)
@@TheParrottBros Sounds good 🍻
Wealth of knowledge...
Where can we buy those sequential indicator strips from?
are there new lens available currently?
I’m keen to use the heat gun to pull my lenses off and try painting the inside as well.
As I’ve sanded and 2pac cleared the outside, and they look really good, but when you turn the lights on you can see heaps of cracks, like a cracked windshield pattern.
Love your work man!
Thanks for all the great ideas.
🇦🇺🤜🏼🤛🏼😎🍀🍀🍀
In the uk you can get them from ebay, im guessing you will have either ebay or a similar place to get hold of them, if you search sequential indicators usually they come up. will be doing a splitting video very soon :)
lenses im not 100% sure on, last i heard you could but they are not cheap, you may be able to split them and sort them by cleaning the inside and going over the outside a little more :)
Dynamic turn light in front is the next modification I would like to do
Yeah they do at a little bit to the look I must admit. Plus a nice daytime running light might look cool
I would definitely like to see a video on the led sttrobing upgrade. I think I could get the lights out on my own so maybe do an upgrade video then a video on how to remove them... Yeah it's backwards. Great videos keep them coming.
Haha I’ve already done a removal video, will pull them apart in next few weeks and see what I can do 👍🏻
What headlights are the ones you have on the thumbnail, I’m talking about the bottom right head light that you showed on the thumbnail, where can I buy that one
Hi. Have you done a video on how to wire up the sequential indicators?
@@raycross5422 I have not I’m afraid
Can you point me in a direction I might find something?
i know old video but have you looked at the silver reflector bowl behind the projector lens? the ones on my car have lost its silvering so i bought some second hand ones and they were exactly the same, couldnt find any new ones. and because plastic its a chemical silvering not electrical. 20 year+ cars now could explain why your seeing bad light output also. worth a look next time you have a chance. im thinking of trying some of that brightest paint (glow in the dark when off could be a cool effect) or just silver paint to test if its better. but professional silvering would be best as its mirror finish .
nvm just got recomended a newer vid by you that explains the reflector lol.
@@c0wsg0m00 great comment and yes at some point we will need to try and find a way to fix the silvering and at present I haven’t found anyone who can do it professionally and I’ve been looking 😂
Are these any good for my TT MK1

Actually, where can I get those indicators
Where can i find those led stripes/drl for the rear + front and the wiring
On ebay they are readily available and usually only about £10
Do you have to replace the original lights with orange lights with the clear indicator mod?
I would imagine you would need an orange lamp yes
Hi Dom, no new video today, really like your videos. Why not put up a post saying that you will post a video soon or that there is a delay?
Take care Dom
Hey man, sorry had a really bad week at work and struggling with a bad back. Your right I should have put a post up, going forward I’ll make sure I do. Got this week off work
And got a few nice jobs planned for the car so fingers crossed it won’t be an issue 🙂. Thanks for the support means a lot
@@TheParrottBros hi, really sorry to hear that, hope your ok. I only said it because it keeps everyone in the loop on what's going on. That's ok👍
Hey parrot buddy cool videos, can u showus how to dismantle a Tt mk1 headlight please
Hey, if you have a look through my more recent videos there is exactly that
@@TheParrottBros hi bro we are in many same Audi Tt groups. Im looking thu your videos and i see how to remove the headlight and thats okay. Im mean how to deglue and remove the inside spares from the headlight. I need to replace the acrilic front and many other things!
@@ENFDO yes I know what you mean bro, see this video done recently. Shows how they come apart etc

@@TheParrottBros youre the boss buddy.
@@TheParrottBros Tnx, excellent video. Im looking for the acrilic cover and i cant find it, for replacing the original.
Hi! Its possible to buy just the clear lens so i can open mines and paint the interior in silver? If so...where can i buy it...i cant find 😅 Thanks
Do you mean the ones to replace the orange strip for the indicators. If so yeah from Cloude 9 customs
How long is it the sequantial indicator ? How many cm should I buy ?
You would have to measure up your headlight I’m afraid I can’t remember. I believe I ordered 30cm ones
@@TheParrottBros thank you very much. I measured somehow 37cm and don’t know what size to buy because i only find 2 types: 30cm and 45cm
Hi Where can I get the front sweeping indicators from cheers
Hi Martin, there's plenty in various lengths on eBay and Ali-Express, look for the ones in white silicon tubes, these look the best when fitted.
I got them like derek said from eBay. 30cm in length, I’ll add some links to
Video later 👌🏻
how do you know if you have halogen or xenon?
The yellow sticker on the top of the light usually says xenon on if they are xenon lights
Where can I get those grey indicators
Link is in the video description buddy just click the arrow below the video :)
Whats that front bumper at 05:25?
So that is a stock bumper, with the number plated smoother out with a splitter from eBay bonded on and made to look one.
Is the headlights price for the 2?
Sorry I don't understand what you mean
@@TheParrottBros sorry for my bad English XD i was asking if the price on ebay was for just one headlight or both
This video won’t start for me 😫 it lets me see everything else but not this video
most of your links are broke
I shall look into this, hard to keep up with links regularly changing on certain sites
Tu as Facebook ? J'aimerais t'envoyer quelques photos pour t'es vidéos 👍
