What did you do to your mk7 today?

Started illuminating my vents. Having to make custom bezel to cover the led.

Oh this is cool….x2 for night pics

I put some white lithium on my headlight level sensor to see if sticking arm was causing my AFS error

Disabled my soundaktor, passenger seat chime, and activated the hatch lights for 5-light braking. Tweaked the brake booster settings but haven't tested yet. Would *love* to disable the door-ajar scream next if I can find verified codes.

What else am I missing...

Please take a night pic - i would like to see the finished product

I am also incorporating the illuminated CC knobs.

Removed the failing deautokey license plate lights (flickering). They were benevolent enough to offer me a warranty replacement (which i had to pay for, weirdly....neat warranty concept). That one didn't even light up at all. Either just the bulb or the pigtailed one. Not that it matters the pigtailed one didn't light up, because it didn't have any capability to lock into the housing like the factory bulb plug does. It isn't designed properly. Or they sent the wrong ones. Either way, i have zero interest in continuing to waste my time and money on more "warranty" replacements. Back to incandescent.

Installed the Osrams. I thought i liked the look of the classical mk7 projectors better. I was wrong -- these look great.

I passed the passenger headlight power cable in front of the long air intake box. It's lightly sandwiched in there, so won't get squished. I could have made it reach by running the cable along the back firewall but decided not to since it gets very hot there.

Has anyone tried the smoked dynamic mirror indicators from Osram? I have what i believe are dynablinks (it's been a while) and they are too dim in bright sunlight.

That’s pretty cool man @carbon_gecko

There is a “app” for the door ajar I’m pretty sure..

That is very knight-riderish….. totally dig it!

How?

How?































Nano led with a resistor, surprisingly there is area that it fits into nicely, tap a small hole for wires
