Is it 4 meters of fabric or 4mm of fabric because on the site it shows 2 mm for 12£

@@MendItModIt that’s ok, no bother. I’m struggling to get into “engineering mode” on FORscan; apparently I need to be in that to change the “headlight type” in central configuration. Great video btw, I’m wrestling with myself of doing this mod myself, love cruise control!

Fantastic job on the wheels. It's refreshing to see proper silver wheels, not horrible black ones (though, Gold wheels can go surprisingly well with red cars) Nice one! 👍

Big Thanks to you for this video that "saved my life". I had my Ford Fiesta 2005 with a blower making alarming noises. This noisy blower was installed by my mechanic that changed the faulty original one with a fan recovered from junkyard. He said that it was impossible to find a new blower for this old car because the original Ford spare part would have cost me hundreds of euros (!). The problem was that this "new" blower worked but was noisy as hell. So I went on almosta a year with this horrible noisy fan. Then I started to think that maybe a little greasing could have improved the situation. So i searched online and I found you video. After viewing the video I took courage and embarked on the task of dismantling the noisy fan it to see if I could fix the problem. After a lot of curses I managed to disassemble the fan. I tried with electrical motor lube and then I temporarily reassembled the fan (only two screws and without the moving cover). The noise was still there. So I searched with google and I found a online shop in my country (Italy) that was selling the right fan for my car model at an affordable price. So I bought the fan (45 Euro) and then I assembled it (with a lot of curses again) and now it works like a swiss watch. I thik I watched your video at least 10 times to memorize where the parts and the screws are located. A thousand thanks to you

stumbled onto this while trying to figure out what, if any, options there were for the Mk7. I'm not sure what it's like in the UK, but in the US, the HVAC lights are teal green, the radio lights are white, and the gauge cluster is red and white - none of it matches and it's annoyed me since day one. I might feel brave enough to take this on now. Unfortunately it looks like everything in the Mk7 is a super tiny SMD.

Great video. Used this after fitting steering wheel with cruise control to my c max. Had to do a couple of extra steps in Forscan though. As well as enabling cruise control I had to go into Engineering 1 mode and select Adjustable speed limiter then change it from without ASL to with ASL. Write this change the same as you did for cruise control. Then most importantly you need to go into DTC on Forscan and clear errors. (I had B112B steering wheel module error). After that cruise control worked fine.

Pretty sure I mentioned that in the video, as well as cleaning the bolt holes to remove any oil that falls in during removal. The smallest amount of oil to stop them binding is fine though if they’re clean. It’s the block that would crack, not the head but I think that’s what you meant

👎Great idea BUT you made a huge error. Which is why it got harder and harder to put that bolt in. You MUST tap (thread) both holes from one side. If not you end up with one side having reversed threads and you will have to cross thread (ruin) the bolt. Righty tighty lefty loosy. The way it was done the bolt would go thru the first hole with no problem but then hit left hand threads on the other side then it would either stop or cross thread and be ruined. I was surprised you got it in at all TBH. Its vey simple if you think about it. Also stainless harware is very easy to ruin. Ive seen it happen many times at work. Someone with run a nut down with an impact instead of with their hand or wrench, then tighten with impact. If you run the nut down fast with an impact or drill the threads will lock up and it will need to be cut or broke off. Ive personally had to break many stainless studs using a wrench and impact and about 5 min per nut. Its hard work. We couldn't cut because we couldn't produce sparks due to location. 🔥 This is very basic mechanical knowledge. Other then that it turned out nice. Im going to make the whole tool from scratch.
