Hi folded you link and bought a new stereo for my r32 which mirror link app did you use ? Any thanks

I feel the mk5 is a timeless design when modded. Great stuff

Glad you like it!

Those rear lights 😍😍😍

I need 6 speed manual Ecu shipped to us if you can help 😎

Where are you going to get the leather seats?

[@JC_46]

Hamza is anything else needed for the RCD330? I have the same old school original headunit and it doesn’t have Bluetooth. Is a Bluetooth module or anything additional needed to get the RCD330 to work?

[@incywincy2k]

Rcd330 has Bluetooth integrated

[@JC_46]

@@incywincy2k thanks so nothing else needed, just a straight swap?

[@singh7198]

Do you know if it's possible to put a newer/modern steering wheel in? or is that too much hassle?

[@TRHamza]

It is possible yes, will be doing that soon

[@markussmith3135]

I dont get why the lights are so popular I'm not a massive fan I prefer the oem tinted ones 🤷‍♂️

[@ethanstenner9397]

I LOVE those LED taillights!

[@mr.g702]

The original rear lights are just gorgeous for me. 😊

[@hashimyounas3373]

I would suggest adding a alcantara steering wheel and a front splitter

[@Patient_Lion_BS]

If you go Alcantara, you have to vow never to touch the steering wheel with grubby lip licking fingers 😂 Otherwise it becomes a proper mess and looks nasty

[@hashimyounas3373]

@@Patient_Lion_BS true but u can get alcantara on the top and bottom and the sides leather

Or just use a mk6 or mk7 steering wheel

“Be careful with these” *literally rips them off* 🤣🤣

[@TRHamza]

Being careful didn’t include mine 🤣

[@thejoneseys]

Those exterior mods make such a difference, the led lights are awesome 👍🏻 Changing the head unit is a must on older vehicles. Sounds really nice with the new exhaust setup, that's more civilised you can leave the ear defenders at home now 😂

[@TRHamza]

Yeah the exhaust was too much before, good fun for a video idea but in reality not so much 🤣

[@hazzard8760]

For value purposes the R32 should be left as stock. Prices are rising as the number of Mk 5 R32's on the road are diminishing and values are creeping up. It spoils them with bolt ons and alterations. I have had my R32 since 2008 from new to date and the true collectors want untouched originals. They consider updating them reduces the values. If you want to upgarde and modify you should have a GTi as they are perfect for moding.

[@brendanroberts1310]

Someone online said roughly the same thing plus said to keep the money for when it goes wrong, because it can be expensive to repair.

[@willsam1887]

Was just looking at that diffuser today, Shame it doesn’t line up the best, does it hold on solid enough with them screws?

[@TRHamza]

Solid so far 👍🏼

[@DavidSmith-wn6pw]

Those light clusters are terrible. I've never liked them. Always thought they looked cheap. Much prefer the tinted originals.

[@markrs59]

That back end screaming for a nice set of 4inch slash cut tips now

[@MultiacManiac]

The diffuser is very nice, but I actually cringed watching you cut through the bumper.

[@karldale9217]

Loving the mod vids and that R32 in Tornado is just 😍 just shows it's not all about the engine tuning 👏🏻. Also great choice of exhaust was way too loud before 👌🏼

[@MrElectricSkittles]

I read somewhere that they bought that battery drain adapter you have and it fucked up after a month...any update on the rcd330

[@candyman9816]

Clean car! And btw if you ever want to sell those led taillights let me know 👀

[@jaspalriat6001]

Those wheels should be in gun metal grey or silver.

[@NefretVR6]

I did a similar thing with my 06 gti and r32 rear.i have put a mark 6 gti exhaust and valance . And check out my instagram page static020. You can code the valeo led's into just the circle.

[@stevenclarke2192]

I’d like to see that, would love Valeo’s wish someone did the conversion in uk.

[@MrWaheedulHaque]

should have had a rev battle with the helicopter

[@seh97]

Was going to buy one of those diffusers until I saw you needed to cut the bumper😬

[@zuhaybraja6856]

Leather seats and wrap the rear diffuser in gloss black.

[@HazTuc12]

Just realised I was in front of you in my blue r32 getting fuel at tesco Birmingham like 1/2months ago! you were in the rs3 😍 loving the r32 content!

[@piti_rocks]

My R32 had the valeos in and I swapped them with the GTI style ones 😂

[@TheSootpig]

Valeos are good but cherry red are better Anyone doing the fog reverse mod use hot melt glue. Super glue with fuff the plastic

[@adampaterson879]

Do the skyline modification with the valeo tail lights to get the quad rings! www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/index.php?topic=75060.0

[@aceace5457]

we had a vw golf r auto box which drived like a dream it was load because we fitted a straight pipe for two weeks and then took it back off and sold it for a merc c63 and sold that only because it had a leak in the engine compartment but i encourage you to look at my son on Fastlane_tv .

[@Captain.Danger]

watches one r32 vid an subbed such a sick car, should definitely upload more vids on it🙌🏻

[@hullandproud4134]

I’m looking into getting a r32 can anyone tell me are they good daily drivers, what’s the MPG like and are they expensive to maintain? Plus what is the tax on these I’ve seen £360 I’ve seen £615 not sure what it is thanks

[@uixmat]

most british response to seeing a helicopter "It's probably coming for us" XDD - seriously tho, great vid Hamza, love the Mk5

[@marc5parks]

can i get the stock rear lights if you still have them?

[@stevenclarke2192]

Does anyone have a link to show how to do the valeo EU to UK swap so they are MOT compliant , I’ve tried to find it but can’t. I desperately want them in my r32.

[@roywallace5549]

Ali express bro, doesn't that place only sell fakes? the design of the head unit looks like mine of a 2012 gti mk 6 but when u turn it on yours looks completely different.

[@GANJAMAN-1987]

Where did u get original exhaust fitted from brother? Reason why im asking is my eml light came on, got it diagnosed n mechanic said sum1 fitted performance cat so it needs to be remapped stage 1 an eml light will go plus he goes small little minute leak but he didnt wana sort it in case he snapped a bolt or sumat.. so i was thinking of getting a whole new custom exhaust for it full back to front.. what do u think?

[@michaelsantoro170]

Mk5 interiors really benefit from a mk6/mk7 steering wheel if you ever have some money to waste. Loving this build.

[@mupet140]

Pretty sure the fog lamp needs to be on O/S or centre of vehicle if theres only 1 apart from that looks real neat👌

[@SiyxmTTS]

[@richiekuk]

Sorry but that diffuser doesn’t fit properly and those lights are absolutely disgusting!

What happened to those old rear lights, I love those cherry red one, much better than the pink/red ones you get on the basic mk5s

Put leather bucket front seats 🤤

Well done Hamza. Your videos are informative

Why don’t you get an electronic valve for the R32 and keep it straight piped

Hamza, any advice on purchasing that rear diffuser in the U.S? I've just bought an r32, same color as yours.

[@F7INN]

That diffuser looks mean as fuck. There's one on my road with a Maxton Design splitter and I love it

[@amosy8345]

Hey man just wondering why you are keeping the r32 if you think it’s slow? What do you like about it? Also need to colour match those airbag clips on the pillar, that’s bothering me 👌😁

[@nooruzzaman6724]

Just my personal experience shared. I've got valeos on my MK5. Code it so that inner brake light is turned off (just the outer ring is on) & then skyline mod it, looks 100x better, example is on my ‘skyline mod highlight’ on Instagram: @boosttd.gti

[@phas3rrr]

there's a lot more to do regarding interior modernizing (mk6/7 steering, cluster, rcd330g(i think you already did it), mk6 window/light switches. seats to be leather / wingback bucket type).

[@konvurt9061]

Great video man. Already had the RCD330 but that diffuser is very tempting. It doesn't look like it from this video, but does the diffuser allow access to the tow hook passthrough in the rear bumper? Necessary for track use! Cheers from the USA.

[@TheSimplexArtz]

That Diffusor is Junk.

[@dts7824]

Its nice to see someone make these kind of cars quieter! Nothing more obnoxious than a stupidly loud car.

[@TheNelson456]

The tail lights are 358 pounds when I click the link?? Maybe cause I’m in the US ??

[@rafz9147]

Has the bonnet gone pink again?

[@euanreekie102]

Just wondering why did you have the converter for the big black cable?

[@alz283]

That diffuser suits the car well. If it was carbon dipped or something it would look even better. Shame it’s on the slow mk5 though 😉

[@yusufislam3487]

does anyone know if ALL 8 buttons on the MFSW work both sides or just the volume ones ?

[@oscardelbo8077]

Just loved the content! So informative and straight to the point. Glad you came to your senses and silenced the beast. You were so embarrassed driving it around straight piped that it got me worried you were going to sell. And I was right , cos shorty after you dropped the bomshell! Im swapping the ecu on mine with a modded one -, wish you had a video on that cos the ones I've seen are crap, and I know yours would have been tops. Awesome!

[@sufyaanshahid463]

[@ThatRoddy]

Why do you need to split the tail light? Just swap the wires from inside the boot.

[@jlsvideos5990]

Have you experienced any battery drain yet? I might buy this model

[@I.am.br0]
