A quick and easy way to add a light to the boot of the VW Polo. The Indian Polo 6R never came with a boot light and its an easy add-on in under Rs. 200. Thanks for watching! :)
Hi Gannu, Informative as always, and if you didn't knew, there is a connector under the left bootliner where you can tap connection which only lights up the boot light when the boot is open. Tap the ground to the no.5 pin of the said connector. Hope this helps 😊
Thank you Karthik. I sourced the cables from a local hardware and electric store that supplies household goods. Connectors from a local electronic spare parts shop (Mercy Electronics if you are familiar with Chennai).
Can you show how to change the coolant fluid on this car? I'm learning all maintenance on my car trough you and so far I'm loving it! I'm yet to find a video on this specific model and all the dos and don'ts of flushing the coolant. Thanks!
Hi JK, thanks a lot for the feedback man. 🙂 Unfortunately I do not have the Polo with me anymore. Doing a coolant flush is pretty simple and straightforward and I can guide you through it. What Polo variant do you have?
If you’re wondering the additional load that the fuse would take, it will easy take the extra load of 5W the boot light bulb draws. Two of these bulbs draws 10W in total and a 5A fuse permits a maximum of 12V*5A = 60W power draw. There are zero risks with this setup as long as you use proper cables and connectors.

Nope, did not know this. This is indeed helpful. Thanks a lot. 👍🏻
Very useful
Thanks bro. 😊
Very informative as always. Please do more videos like this 🤗
A very useful video. Kudos.
Good job Ganesh Bhai! 🎉
Thank you Faizal ikka. 🥰
👏🏻👏🏻something similar required for Zen too😁
Haha problem is the Zen’s boot door lock is completely mechanical so the switch needs to be integrated within the body like the ones for each door.
@@GaneshBalan 😀 Yes switch is available for all the doors incl boot and bonnet. I simply connected a led strip with boot switch.

Video was very much informative and properly put. Thanks!,
could you please share the link where you bought the cables and connectors please?

@@GaneshBalan Nice!!, my next expectations from you is to install footwell lamps and puddle lamps 😀..keep up the good work!

@@GaneshBalan the exact same you have in your video. 6R from 2013
This one is a 1.2 MPI engine. I have a friend who has one. Can plan for a coolant change video some day.
@@GaneshBalan Exactly like mine. I'll be around looking for it!
Wow🎉
Looks risky but it is nice
