[@peterstanmore6335]

Great walk through Dom. Nice to see my pic as an example of the complete votex kit 👍 Agree on the comment regarding the rear bumper but IMO you can do the front bumper and rear spoiler but as soon as the side skirts go on the rear bumper has to be fitted to balance the look. Since fitting the rear bumper addition it’s grown on me 🙂

[@TheParrottBros]

Always nice to use real current cars in pics when I can, yeah I know what you mean. The rear bumper is slowly growing on me and if you have the whole kit then it makes sense to keep it together

[@BobJones-rb8zr]

Hi again Dom, this is another informative video. We have only owned our 2000 TT since July 2023 and we love it. Ours does not have the rear spoiler and it does have the original cup holder. I live in Canada so I have heard more than once that I have the “ugly” bumpers lol. Still looking for a battery cover. Thanks again Bob.

[@TheParrottBros]

Hey Bob, I actually really like your bumpers I guess because they are different and unique but still retain the same shape as we have just with the extra bits. Glad you are enjoying it! A cupholder man you are live in the dream ha ha. I have a couple of battery covers for sale, if you drop me a message I can work out the postage for you and give you a price, all the best Dom

[@BobJones-rb8zr]

Hi again Dom I am definitely interested in a battery cover. How should I private message you my address? Would you like my email or do you want to use Facebook messenger?

[@BobJones-rb8zr]

The cover that I am looking for is the very top one. Not the one on top of the battery with the fuses. The smooth cover with 3 fasteners

Hi Dom, I love having cruise control and I have what I think is a factory coat hanger which comes in handy. It is fixed to the headrest bars

The cruise is a blessing for sure, the factory coat hanger is one piece metal frame yeah

[@clocktown64dd]

Hia again Dom :) I have one of the ABT cars- the kit from said cars wasn't actually available to buy as the wheel arches front and rear were 5inches overall wider than standard so the bumpers would not fit a standard one if that makes sense :) I believe they made a similar style bumper to purchase that would fit a standard car without the Widebody adaption:) obviously having one I am very fond of the quad exhaust 🤣

[@TheParrottBros]

Thats wicked thanks for the information and you lucky guy!! in the original yellow i presume? haha someone has to be 😜 i joke of course im just so used to seeing tt's with twin not quad my brain cant deal with it, im sure if i had an abt sat on my drive i could get used to it

Hi Dom. You could have added the roadster tonneau cover, really cleans up the hood area. I've seen the GTT site and their stuff does look good, I'm really drawn to the coupe boot vent covers, the fluid caps and the LED surrounds, might pull the trigger on some of that stuff tonight, you've whetted my appetite ! The bodykits look interesting, but I love the purity of the MK1 shape, so I can't see myself ever going down that road, apart from a couple of very minor mods that I have had sitting in the boot for ages, and I'll also get a mesh grille and lower grille to give the face a more cohesive look. I just love to fiddle ! 😂😂😂

[@TheParrottBros]

Its hard isnt it, i love the oem look and thats why i never really change the exterior too much.... but the rest is fare game haha! i actually have a tonneau sat in the garage just never get round to fitting it

Thanks!

[@SebieHill]

Loved this video, now know my cup holder is so rare! One part I don’t hear talked about much anymore are the blue or orange painted haldex controllers. Still looking for one for my TT, don’t like the hassle of the hpa touchmotion.

Yeah the blue controllers don’t come up for sale very often and even when they do they are not cheap anymore so hpa is probably more worth getting 😂

[@TheParrottBros]

Depends what cup holder you Want, you can’t run a genuine double cup holder and an arm rest at the same time as they use the same mounting. You can use an arm rest and a 3d printed cup holder or cut a double cup holder to suit the arm rest

Do you know the percentage of the TTs that came with the Bose audio system? or was it all of them? Also you should check the soft top cover, I own a OEM one and I can't find any for less than 1000$ on ebay, but you can find some some aftermarket ones for 100$, and it turns out that the small extra space of the convertible is to be able to fit the cover in trunk, as the OEM one atleast folds and fits perfectly.

No idea why you would think the window drops get you keys , the reason is due to the design and history , the glass surface area , it drops to save seals and keep air tightness when driving but mainly , when you close the door it allows air pressure to leave rather than pop a window , it was a thing back in the day with cars with small interior to glass ratio , with the old glass seals but country dependent ( with temp ) and or of both doors were slammed front or bk would pop Interested in the 20quud micro switch fix for the door lock if you have a link

@@TheParrottBros hey man, sent you a picture of the ones I have in hand, I've only seen them on a small handful of cars. Take a look at let me know if they're actually common? They certainly don't seem to be common in the US at least. Had to ship these ones from a guy in Romania lol.

Roof gaskets seals 7 items 2003 1.8 Quattro convertible . Can you find new ones

[@TheParrottBros]

You will struggle to buy any gaskets or seals now, as I believe they are no longer available

[@andycharger]

Some cool features there. I’ve seen a Votex kit on a car in Ticehurst and went after them on my bike but never caught them up to give them a card! The Sat Nav rocks! Oh and I stuck my iPhone in one cup holder and the coke in the other ;)

[@TheParrottBros]

Haha need to buy an electric Assist bike them mate 😂. That’s a good use for a cup holder. It’s like a Swiss arm knife, good for lots of things

[@stewstube70]

By the way it should be Abt not A.B.T. The tuning company is run by a Mr. Abt, its the German equivalent of the surname Abbot, but without the "o".

[@AnthonyDurand1]

Different engine models.. I bought at auction what I thought was a regular 180.. however there was a limited market in mk1/phase 1 that had a tuned 180 that the only thing different is the brushed steel on the glovebox that has the Audi “🟥S” monogram alongside the Quattro badge in.. I literally panic bought it at reserve price so it didn’t get broken for parts.. deep met blue paint, bright blue leather seats and the wheels that came on the 225 S3 of the same year.. I already got an S3 with the Bam in. 😂

[@mk1chopper]

Another oem option was cruise control.

[@TheParrottBros]

Thats a good one, only my v6 has it out of all the cars, the noggy had it retro fitted in my ownership as its a must. luckily you can buy the stalks cheap

I own a mark 1 2000 TT with 146,000 on the clock. It’s my daily drive. I bought it in 2010 for 4.5K . I have yet to see a car I was swap it for....

[@TheParrottBros]

Wow thats cool, 12 years on and still have it! yeah its a tough one as not that many cars out there that would give you the same driving experience / looks for not mad money

[@stevenharpervw]

On my 225 German spec tt, I have a factory phone changer between the two cups holders . In the hard horse shoe curved plastic that the cup holder bolts to . The external aerial is in the Roof I know it’s factory approved because the hole is dimpled pressed not Just drilled with a random drill bit. No idea what phone it would change I guess a Motorola or Nokia . But no cradle where the handle is beside the hand brake leaver

[@TheParrottBros]

How cool! often people take the phone part out and leave the hardware, ive seen some cool things people have done with old phone holders like wireless charge pad etc

[@90Duck]

@@TheParrottBros The first one I saw online had the phone mounting stuff removed and I thought it was a cool looking "oh shit" handle for the passenger to grab onto. I'd been looking for one before I got educated on what it actually is.

It's not "A.-B.-T.", it's simply Abt. It's a family name. It's also a clerical term, it translates to "abbot".

[@danieleraviola349]

Yeah but don't want to distort the look of the vents with one of them and also the direct warm air on the phone in winter i think it isn't a great idea,so i think the better choice is one of those supports of aluminium between the vents because are also great looking and recalls the aluminium parts.

Hi Dom great video really interesting stuff and some absolutely gorgeous stuff I’ve been on the lookout for an Audi TT aluminium top dip stick have seen them on some of the cars at the shows you go to any ideas or links you could tell me thanks 👌👍
