retrofit

Hello everyone has anyone retrofitted Xenon or LED headlights to their vans and have fitted the front and rear level sensors plus associated wiring. The real level sensor does the cable for this run under the van from rear to front or does it enter the van via a grommet somewhere and travel...

Hi all, Apologies if this has already been covered but I have searched the forum and cannot find the information I am looking for. I am about to convert a 2013 T5 from barn doors to tailgate. The tailgate is from a sportline and has a heated window and wiper I would like to use. I understand...

Hi, I have a 66 ref T6. It’s an ex RAC van and came with power folding mirrors with the switch on the drivers door. I’ve just been through the coding for auto folding on lock using Vcds, but it hasn’t worked. I’ve tried it a few times but they don’t fold on locking. It’s done something as now...

Hi all I have a T6 with heated electric mirrors, does anybody know what genuine parts are required to convert these to power folding, I know the switch on door card needs added, and I'm guess new bases with motors+control modules etc? If anybody had the part numbers would be great. Thanks Phil

Hi, I retrofitted front fog lights and Front&Rear OPS parking sensors on this van. Fog lights work ok, but parking sensors are not displayed on MIB unit, only a black image appears when you press parking buton or when you engage reverse gear. I checked all codings/adaptations, seems in order...

Hiya folks! A while ago my van developed a sticky front Caliper and with the distance needed to travel back home from where I was, I knew that the discs and pads would likely need replacing along with the Caliper. With that in mind, I realised it wouldn’t be too much more to replace the rest...

My van has a front sensor so would like to try and enable the adaptive cruise control. Could anyone recommend a obd2 /vag(?) Interface that I can use to change the settings, preferably cheaper the better lol

I’m thinking of converting my van to have auto folding mirrors. They presently fold on the drivers door switch only. I’m familiar with the possible options for achieving this but need confirmation of the MY number. I think (being 66 registered 26/9/2016) it’s MY17 and requires hardware. Can...

Hi guys, Im finally a Transporter owner as of last week after wanting one since I was about 15! After picking up my 2021 plate T6.1 from Manchester last week, on the 200 mile drive back down to Somerset I noticed how dark it was in the cab compared to my other drive, an Audi A3. I have been...

Hi there, I have a rimless mirror (7E0 857 511 G 9B9) for a T6 (and not a T6.1!) which I bought new, by mistake, for my T6.1. It won't work in the 6.1 because of the different can-bus protocols in the two variants - but it will work if you have a T6! Included is the bezel with the hole for the...

Hi guys Can we pull together a list of available retrofit mods availability and bricks including weather it needs coding or not and if it’s a DIY job or not I know of a company that does a load of stuff retrofits they did my virtual cockpit not cheap close to £2k but a drive in drive out about...

Hi All, I'm currently looking at a basic startline model van with a tailgate, however would want to convert this to having a rear window and also adding a rear window wiper (not currently on the van). Whilst id have no problem at putting the window in, can anyone please advise if fitting and...

Hi I want to fit a MFSW to my T6, its a startline and wondered if it is possible? I have purchased a Golf Mk 8 wheel and have read some threads about fitting but as of yet nothing I have used VCDS to tell the BCM it has a MFSW and have moved the horn wire over into the Bus wires spare slot but...

Hi there, Can you help with this? I purchased a HBA retrofit kit, not realising it was for a T6, whereas I have a 2021 T6.1 - my bad! :eek: I've had a quick look on the forums for help but can't find any specific 6.1 instructions re wiring and coding. So, would you happen to know . . . a) if...

Hi all So I bought the sunglasses holder from a reputable uk based VW enthusiasts outlet, and proceeded to install said sunglasses holder, that apparently takes just 5 minutes to fit. I discovered that there’s a steel fitting/bracket right behind the headlining recess, which I wasn’t expecting...

Just retrofitted a drivers right hand arm rest. Not as easy as I thought. Remove the seat fabric and the foam. Your see the lumber support handle. Undo the lumber support, notch out the hole above the lumber support and move the lumber support handle up to that hole. Purchase a set of T5 arm...
