Bump, longtime no update.

Hoping to get the images to display again and the car still lives but gauging interest into possibly breaking it.

17" VW B5.5 Phoenix Alloys

Hi Boys & Girls,

It's been awhile but i'm still around with the B5.5. I do logon from time to time but with having just about every electric mod that i like and not really to bothered to much about the external looks of the car there has not been much to report apart from basic maintenance.

Im looking at train set for my little one on eBay but the seller (so far) is asking for collection only. I would be after someone to collect it (if I win), package it and just post to me, its would all fit in a cardboard box. Would be happy to pay for fuel to collect, packaging and sort out a courie...

Hi Guys, Does anyone have any issues with the Push Notifications from Tapatalk on androrid? I have an LG G3 (lollipop 5.0) but for about 8 mouth iv not been getting notifications. Does anybody have the same problem? Stock phone and have tried uninstalling and reinstalling, just about everything :sad:

With golf/bora it can be hit and miss to have 4 or 5 pins but normally the passat b5.5 is fitted with the 5 pin by stranded, easy to find out if you remove the air bag and have alook

hmm, lol dunno about circles chap.. we didnt establish mine wasnt a can-bus radio, or at least I didnt, until i answered your question regarding radio type, because initially when you said itd work apart from the radio, i just concluded that hey mine must be a can bus radio. had no idea until your ...

Andrew, i cant really help you with this but Jultsu information is incorrect

920 is can-bus
919 is non can-bus.

What are you trying to do with the 925?

Funk switch, taxi switch, front heated window switch and a very rare rear blind switch

Slightly off topic but how hard was it to cut out the holes for the us side markers? I want mine in the black plastic unpainted as yours are. Cheers in advance, Adi I'm still doing mine, just not got around to spraying them really and doing the rears. :sad: If your good with a dermal then that's on...

That connector is this? Has part number?

Sorry missed this,

sorry no part number as its just the back part of an old Passat hazard switch.

Hi, just been reading your thread, seriously impressed with your work! Was just wondering what was involved in removing the carpet? I've got a B5.5 saloon that has a water leak from the pollen filter area, would like to remove the carpet to allow it to dry properly, but it looks like the dash needs...

Thank you my friend :),your how to will be better one ;) Too bad that the other wiper model didn't work well,but to be honest,Personally,I like the one you fitted more than the one that was too long,looks so neat with the wiper hidden under that plastic cover :D. So did you got the kit for Auto,and...

Updated - Auto lights with coming/leave home lights

I also finally got around to fitting my ticket holder I got awhile back. when I fitted it I did not like how the pillar cover did not fit correctly so I modified the pillar cover a little to make it fit better. http://www.cdgold.co.uk/polo-mk3/ukpassat/my_passat/Mods/ticket_holder/1.jpg http://www.c...

I got to say I think this mod is amazing compared to the stranded vw setup and looks much better and stylish. :D I got around to a test fit of the aftermarket Aero setup but the wiper supplied is too long and on the new standard arm the one problem I am having is the cap does not line up correctly a...

Very nice work my friend,so neat and clean,have you seen my guide to fitting foglights? :D,i like the rear wiper upgrade :D :-bd Cheers bud, yer I saw your guide when you first installed them, good guide. I noted the lengths of wire I used when I did mine so will be posting them on my how to at som...

Just before Christmas my rear wiper motor packed in again (2nd one and counting). Wiper would randomly stop and fluid pouring out of the rear hatch or just all over. Anyway a mate of mine who has a kick bum golf mk4 had changed his from the standard motor to a Audi Twin Rotating Washer with a Solid ...

Last night I really got my game on and set out on making the loom then fitting it in the dark with no decant battery life on my 50 led torches I have lying around. I made the loom as factory as I could so it would connect to the fuse box correctly using the fuse board on the side with the correct re...

Not must going on but had time for a few repair jobs, few months back I melted one of my rear parking sensor holders when I modified my back box :???: and I finally got a set of replacement side skirts (that I really only needed one) as my pass side had a crack been the wing and the car so the cover...

The orange light does not work in this switch. Not wired up but the switch can be modified so it does work [emoji1]

What do I do ?

Just press the button and lock the car, simples [emoji12]

But it only disables the ultra sonics and not the tilt sensor
