How to install LED bulbs on the dashboard of the Volkswagen Golf.

Model: Volkswagen Golf Golf 2, MK 2 - Years 1983-1992
Part: Light bulb

Today we will explain how to install LED lights on the dashboard of the Volkswagen Golf MK 2 model. Before performing this operation, it will be necessary to remove the dashboard using a trim removal tool and a flathead screwdriver. Let's detach the plastic parts of the dashboard, being careful not to scratch it. Then, unscrew the screws of the instrument panel to be able to remove it. Insert the new LED lights into the small fixtures. Once the insertion is complete and the electrical wires are connected, we can mount the instrument panel by connecting the connector. We screw in the screws and reassemble the dashboard.

Installation of Upgraded Intercooler Radiator with Pipes

Lift the vehicle on suitable axle stands, remove the front wheels, and then the front bumper and grille. Proceed to remove the front headlights; drain the coolant, remove the intercooler radiator and the hoses connecting it to the intake system. Position the new intercooler radiator in the grille, temporarily securing it with cable ties, and mark with a marker the part of the metal that needs to be removed to allow the new hoses to pass through. Cut the marked portion of metal and apply a gasket to the edge. Remove the inner cover of the bumper and position it near the radiator to identify any interfering parts to eliminate: again, apply a gasket to the edge of the cut. Create brackets for securing the new radiator and proceed with the installation of the connecting pipes from the radiator to the intake, shaping and connecting them appropriately. Finally, reassemble the bumper, headlights, and grille.
