VW T5 to VW T6.1 Front End Facelift - Step by Step: Part 5 (Inserts, side repeaters & battery cover)

- In this, the final video in our front end facelift series, we complete the last few jobs now that the van is out of paint. This includes fitting emblems, side repeaters, and front bumper inserts. We also look at how the existing T5 headlight and battery covers can be modified to fit the new T6.1 front end.
Note that HG Lifestyle paid the full price for this kit, receiving no discounts or payment from the supplier (as always) so that we can give a genuine and honest appraisal.

I have a t6.1 front end to put on mine. Love how detailed your video is..thank you
When I did mine I was conscious there were no instructions available. Glad it was helpful! N
@@highergroundlifestyle I’m pretty sure I got all the bits I just need the wings now. Got them coming at the end of the month. So should be all systems go then!
@@highergroundlifestylebit of a strange one but don’t suppose you’d want to sell the transporter ones your not using do you?
@@karlossmith3714 not sure which ones you mean?
@@highergroundlifestyle sorry..the wing badges. You fitted the California ones instead of the black ones

@@highergroundlifestyle Do you have a complete list of all the components necessary with part number?I have thoughts to facelift my T5.2.Thank you and greetings!

Great videos thank you I'll follow these when I convert mine in the new year, I know you finished your a while ago now but do you happen to still have and possibly want to sell the black transporter side emblems?
Best of luck! Yes, I still have the emblems and a few other bits. Haven’t got round to the final clear out yet!
😍
Cheers Steve!
Looks superb, mate. How much was the kit and respray?
Chris, many thanks. You can find details of my programme and all costs in this video from the series: th-cam.com/video/_5k5Rjc6Cmc/w-d-xo.html I could have done things cheaper but this was a van done for us - so I wasn’t scrimping! Pretty certain we’d make our money back… Cheers. N
Great Job and well done👍I have one question to the DRL.Was it necessary to modified the control unit with OBD?🤔
Hi, many thanks. No, there was no requirement for any re-programming - just wiring. Best wishes. N
@@highergroundlifestyle Thanks a lot for the answer. I have modified my T5 from 2008 now with the Facelift but only the DRL does not work although i installed a wire from switch to both headlights.
@@carlosn6829 you need to use an adapter or modify the cables. Have you done that? If not, they won’t work. Cheers. N
@@highergroundlifestyle hi can you advise I have t5 2012 want to convert to t6.1 drl light is adaptor enough or ?
To work, the DRL lights just need a switched 12 volt live. (A 12v source that turns on with the ignition)
incredible ! how much it cost ? thank you
Many thanks! Check out this video for a rundown of my detailed programme and all costs: th-cam.com/video/_5k5Rjc6Cmc/w-d-xo.html
