    I watched your video some years ago to replace the bulb of my Scirocco. Now I watch it a second time, because the bulb is defect again. I always forget how to do it, so I am glad that nice guys like you are providing such helping videos.

      Thank you for the kind words and the support 😁🔥

    I managed to do it using a small forked ball joint splitter as a lever to help twist. Thanks for the video.

    Very useful video, I was searching for it. I have a 1.4 TSI and I was planning to change the bulbs, it seems almost impossible to do following user's manual instructions without taking out the whole headlight. Thank you!

      Thank you. I will have more videos on the scirocco coming soon :) if there is anything specific you would like to see please let me know ?

      +FL4ME WITH A 4 Thank you very much! I have a small issue with my Roc, not so big but very annoying....drivers door window rattle. I know it's originated by power window mechanism, so I should remove door cover to get access inside. It would be very useful to me if you have such a video. Thank you!

      dodicicilindri Funny you say that as i am doing a video on trim door card removal and fitting of side skirts, also bulb upgrades, and painting of the interior trim. :)

    Thank you very much for this perfect tuto , one of the few, if not the only, that explains and shows correctly how to change a bulb on a Scirocco 👏🏻👍🏻

    Useful guide to understand locating the bulb but such a needless exercise to take out the cluster. Can easily knock off the bulb with two fingers and pop it back in with the same technique.

    Brilliant mate. Somehow the headlight retaining spring/clip came out when i was changing the bulb on the Xenon's. Will need to do this to get it back in.

    • @FWA4

      Oh no what a night mare I hope you got it sorted? 🔥

    • @FWA4
      @FWA4  7 лет назад

      Jack Whetton you just need a little screw driver to prise it up 👍🏻

    Very helpful video the bulbs are a nightmare to change, the driver's side light has a cable running below the metal plate which makes that side a bit more awkward. Cheers 👍🏻👍🏻

    • @stuartb3502
      @stuartb3502 Год назад

      Just unclip the bonnet release cable from the cover on driver's side - fingernails will do it easily.

    What was the 2nd bulb you pulled out? Is that like a 2nd headlight? just wondering as I am changign my headlight bulbs to xenon white. Will I need to replace all 4 bulbs? Cheers.

    • @FWA4
      @FWA4  9 лет назад

      +Darren G-dub Thank you for the question. Yes all four bulbs will need to be replaced if you are changing them to the upgraded xenon. You will need four h7 bulbs :) many thanks Dan

    Great video , but I did this a few weeks ago but I didn't replace the cable for opening the bonnet in proper at the top of the headlight , now I can't open the bonnet, anybody any ideas how I can open the bonnet to fix the lead. Please reply if you can help. Thanks

    • @FWA4
      @FWA4  7 лет назад

      James Crawford I can only think that maybe if you can get underneath you could reach up and use a screwdriver to unclip the latch

    • @FWA4
      @FWA4  8 лет назад

      Yaroslav Belov I will sort the video for you 😀 it maybe a few weeks as I have alot of videos in the editing stage 👍🏻 is it the one in the spoiler or besides the boot? And thanks for watching - also I have not heard about the doors creaking but send me a video and I will find a solution 👍🏻

    • @YaroslavBelov
      @YaroslavBelov 8 лет назад

      rear right brake light, to be precise. door is creaking while i drive on acceleration or bumps

    • @FWA4
      @FWA4  8 лет назад

      can you send me a video of the sound when happening ?

    • @YaroslavBelov
      @YaroslavBelov 8 лет назад

      i figured out what was that - door lock - blog.autointhebox.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/04/The-correct-and-effective-lubrication-of-car-door-locks.jpg
      used wd40 on it and creaking stoped, but i think better use denser lubricant
