Thank you for the video Nathan. The new door mirrors are a definite improvement and they finish off the contemporary exterior 👌. Like the new interior light too. Have a great weekend mate 👍.
Hey Karl thank you mate I’m really happy with them slowly getting through the list of upgrades I’ll be happy when the interior is done it’s my least favourite job I think. You have a great weekend to bud 🙏👍
Hi how you doing. Great to be catching up with you again. Had to resubscribe twice now. It's happened with a few of the channels. Loved the part that you are saying about interchangeable parts. Always wondered about that as I wanted to know could I use a light switch that has front fogs from another car if needs be. Why didn't you open the window to make things easier on you 😂😂😂 and can't believe you cut the wires to get the grommet. Someone else could use those mirrors. The van is looking class and it's great to see your channel coming up again. Keep up the good work love your channel
Yes dude epic video, the new mirrors do look alot better, me like that tune 😂 nd ur van is definitely bad ass/arse 😂 nd u do make me chuckle, u funny guy bloody squeaky bolts ay mate nd always look forward to ur next video too right, top work, top dude definitely doing the van epic, till the next time
Colin, I noticed your camper sitting down slightly at the rear. Maybe needing to upgrade the rear springs and shocks? I wouldn’t go down the route of lowering the front to match the lower rear as you Ofer are off road on country lanes and campsites so I’d keep the raised ground clearance if I were you. I understand you will have lots of equipment and items in the rear when away camping compared to at home everyday driving but I’d still add extra strength rear suspension
My windows packed in. Swapped the driver's side for a polo unit. Was great for about a month. That's packed in now. There's a guy on the forum that repairs the module. Sending mine off. Cheaper than replacement.
Hey glen interesting, I wonder if the polo one was almost dead when you got it 🤷 I will try one first but thanks for the tip about getting it repaired 👍
@YTDTETV Maybe. Bought it from ebay as fully tested and working. The seller was very helpful as I nearly bought the wrong unit from him. I can't rule out some other electrical issue causing the problem. I spent a fortune chasing wires, fuses, ignition switches and relays trying to fix it. Seems odd that two units failed. I can pass on the details of the guy who repairs them, if you like? He says it's a common issue.
@@sugar-3-Danny I bought the cheap set and the window locked up so done abit of googling and because the t5 gap is small you need decent ones, I do like the look of them so they are next on the list 👍 appreciate the comments mate
Hey Adam thank you mate really appreciate that 🙏 I enjoy doing bits on my vehicles and definitely want to show others so they can do the same or similar. Nathan 👍
Spoke to Jesus the other day ......he said you should to do a Mazda Bongo build series .....lol ....love your show when i get chance to watch. yeeeeeeah Bad Asss we do want to listen , Urban Takeover
I would like a Elgrand and the Toyota Alphard are nice . Check out the lastest Toyota Alphard the top spec has the middle seats automatically come out and lift you into the wagon disability friendly, sliding doors both sides,. Japanese think of everything. Working on my bongo and then getting urge for a Japanese Keidoshi Van to pimp out.
Few mods I want to do there, definitely intrigued about the cab light! That’s way better than the original. I had a nightmare trimming the headlining, I used a 4 way stretch alcantara lookalike fabric, it’s not as workable as the 4 way stretch carpet stuff
Hey James I plugged the interior light in today and it works absolute perfect it’s just a case of making the hole abit bigger 👍 I’ve seen that stuff used before I I thought about it but then ended up going with the carpet.
@@YTDTETV nice one mate! Look forward to the next update. My headlinings bagged down in one area so a new light fitting will be good excuse to get it down and sort it 👍
@@jamesibbo1 no worries 👍 the Vw caddy have the same interior light and they are so pants can barely see anything at night when they are one, the 3 lights on the new one definitely are a lot brighter. You’ll see the headliner and new light all in next week 👍👍
Hey bud ah man I use to have a cb many years ago, absolutely brilliant I bet it fits in there sweet. 1-9 copy… is channel 19 still the main channel for finding a chat? Thanks for the comment mate 👍
@@YTDTETV yes 19 still the shout out Chanel still a fair few people on there I’ve seen a few t5 drivers with cbs in lol if u need a pic for ideas lol I’ll send u one pmsl
Hi Nathan yes the window surround rubber does shrink. Have you done it sounds like a golf rubber strip that goes on the inside of the door shut yet. Helps with the road noise
Hey Jake thank you 👍 I shal add new glass runners to the list. I havnt done the golf door mod yet but I have seen the rubber trims you can add and I’ve been told it makes a good difference 👍 I shall be getting some.
Hi dte I sprayed my wing mirror cover and spoiler on my polo unfortunately it spoilt I used 2k in a can I'm not sure if it was the heat the weather was 36 degree Celsius and it was parked or kept in direct sunlight so it's actually bubbling 😢have to sand and redo them they look super bad , and I also have the same problem with the passenger window doesn't go up or down If you play with the switch it does down but then it stops completely took it to a auto electrician he said I need to replace the switch which doesn't make sense to me cause 2019 mk5 polo for a new switch and also if it was the switch won't the main switch work 🤷♂️
Believe it or not, the t5.1 and the T6 mirrors are different. You'll not spot the difference until they are next to each other. The T6 mirrors are slightly more aerodynamic and sit a little lower, however the mounts are the same and compatible with the wing plastic molding of the T5. Did you get off the mirror upper covers yourself or did those came separate ? I have issues separating my covers from my mirrors. Looks like they can only be removed by damaging them after once they put together.
Hey bud I never knew that I shal try to spot the difference 👍 mine come with the covers, if you turn the mirror glass all the way to the floor and look in the gap at the top you should see 2 plastic tabs I used a pick to lift the tab up and when one side had lifted I pushed a plastic filler spreader in the open gap to hold it, then I popped the other tab and that released the top. I then run a plastic trim tool in the line between the bottom of the cover and the rest of the mirror then the whole lot popped up. It took a motto work it out but second one come off easier hope that helps 👍
Hey glen I take that as a compliment thank you mate 👍 I’m not taking any work on at the moment I’m sorry, I’ve started working with a friend of mine and that only leaves me a small amount of time to make videos.
Them wing mirrors look a lot better than the old ones, but I thing you mite need to paint the bottom half of the mirrors
Hey Conrad I did think they would look nice gloss black with the silver caps.

I can also confirm the polo window regulator works, changed mine a few weeks ago it has the same OE number. This was the passenger side tho.
