tchouki85 Posted October 27, 2022 Report Share Posted October 27, 2022 (edited) Hi everyone And yes I present to you a little news in the mdrrrr family It will aim to take me to work every day and to ensure the shot during the interviews on the polo and there golf: dance: Tadaaaaaa I present to you "chick" don't ask me why the photos speak for her Even mdrrrr So it is a lupo tdi75 base finish (see the label in the trunk) It has the sunroof so it's cool but to check because it does not work It therefore has 215,000 km and the distribution was done in the garage so I am cushy I passed the vagcom with the previous owner and I have the fault code G27 and G28 which came out but nothing bad Then before hitting the road I went to fill up mdrrrr uhhhhh 32€ and I was on the job too cool So business to follow guys because she's going to have the right to a little preferential treatment And now since the days I bought it, a lot of things have been done on it above there were Lupo GTI xenon front lights, Lupo GTI rear lights, OEM ancora rim, mfd, triplex with a small strand of OEM antenna, heated seat, electrochrome interior mirror, electric exterior mirror, cruise control, in short, I started from afar because it is basically a simple basis Edited October 28, 2022 by tchouki85 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tchouki85 Posted October 28, 2022 Author Report Share Posted October 28, 2022 hello everyone, I will list you the modifications made to it since I bought it, the first big modification is the assembly of xenon headlights of Lupo GTI, here is the report of the assembly first put the chick on the operating table Then as I did not want to touch the original beam, I perform the operation on the beam of the xenon headlight In a 1st time it is necessary to bring 2 diodes ref: VS-95SQ015 which you will find on Internet installation of the diode of the T8 of the gti xenon headlight So T8/4 to T8/1 Then in my case I want my xenons to have an original operation which implies that the xenon indicators must work and that the pilot light is in the indicator of the grille A little reminder about the lupo tdi Indicator in the grille and pilot light in the headlight And on the xenon headlight of the GTI blinker in the xenon headlight and pilot light in the grille So big dilemma 😤 Race results The T8/2 must be cut from the xenon socket to about 5cm Now take the T8/2 from the headlight side and weld it to the T8/3this operation allows the bi-xenon shutter to work and make the headlight operational So more than solve the concern of the turn signal and the night light To do this, cut the T8/8 from the xenon plug and isolate the wire that comes out of the T8/8 plug because it will no longer be used.like that and also that of the grille indicator so the grey/white for the left and the black/green for the right With male/female crimp plugslike this one Take the plugs and put one on the wire on the lamp side of the grille turn signal and connect it to the wire of the T8/8 on the xenon lamp side (purple and orange) so now the turn signal will be in the xenons: dance: So now it remains to put the pilot light in place of the indicators of the grille:?: Nothing could be simpler for that mdrrrr You remember having cut the wire of the T8/2 suddenly put on the wire which comes out of the socket a crimp plug Then on the flashing wire on the harness side also put a crimp plug and connect the T8/2 together with the flashing wire and everything will be operational: dance: Now on to the pictures xenons in place🤗😘 Night lights onsidelights and turn signals workingsidelight and dipped headlights on full headlight and pilot light Check So everything is operational 😍🤩 Small important clarification for the night lights I took P21/4W bulbs to be able to use only the 4W part so in the base of the bulb holder you just have to manage so that only one filament works and as much as possible that of the 4W because if you used the 21w the flashing block will melt 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tchouki85 Posted November 4, 2022 Author Report Share Posted November 4, 2022 hello guys, today I'm going to come back to a little modification made some time ago, the pop-outsbefore so as in the tutorial on your forum, I managed to get the necessary equipment to make this modification then before starting to cut anything, I took care to secure the window so that it did not fallwith the help of a cutter and a screwdriver and lubricant I start cutting the seal as the cut progresses, I move the cutter to keep myself space to slide the bladealmost finished going around the joint just roll up the new window to do this, simply screw the two screws that will go into the original inserts behind the sealand one, remains the second to doand two too classy, one more option too top🥰 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tchouki85 Posted November 20, 2022 Author Report Share Posted November 20, 2022 (edited) Hello everyone today I'm going to share with you the refurbishment of the Lupo GTI spoiler bought for 200€ or 174.04£ it looks good but it has suffered a lot, here is the damage closer already both fixing inserts damaged, one missing and the other broken rusty then the internal part of the brake lights completely oxidized, so yes there is a lot of restoration work, but good for a piece that cannot be found, I will make the effort first of all for the internal part of the stop lights, my choice was a 12V kitchen led strip bought in a DIY store, then I changed the fixing screws of the lights which were also all oxidized, after having rid the electronic board of all the electronic components, I was able to cut and glue the 12V led strip on it, and after a test it works perfectly after the electrical part, I moved on to the fixing part of the spoiler, after having extracted the remaining oxidized insert, my choice was to inject a casting resin to fill the hole, but the spoiler had to be cut not the choice for information the casting resin has a complete drying time after 7 days, so after 14 days I was able to drill the resin to install my stainless self-tapping insert now that the problem with the inserts is solved and the electrical part works, I tackled the drilling of the tailgate after this step I looked in my stock of wires, a wrong / female plug to be able to connect the brake lights to the Lupo now the cosmetics, blue is good but on a yellow Lupo I prefer to see it in yellow so after having it primed at the body shop, I did the sanding and then deposited it for the paint job so while waiting for his return I put a patch to avoid water infiltration last phase for mounting the spoiler, installation of the insulating joint found on Amazon, welding of the plug on the vehicle part and installation of the spoiler and here it is finally mounted after all this time of repair and preparation, it is great Edited November 20, 2022 by tchouki85 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mickster Posted November 22, 2022 Report Share Posted November 22, 2022 This is brilliant! Although personally I think you should have kept the spoiler raven blue and painted the car to match 😉 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tchouki85 Posted November 23, 2022 Author Report Share Posted November 23, 2022 thank you Mickster, but I do not have the budget to make a total color change of the vehicle then the yellow I find it more fun😅 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tchouki85 Posted February 11, 2023 Author Report Share Posted February 11, 2023 hello everyone, yesterday I received a large package and inside there are the parts that I needed to be able to mount the central rear exhaust and at the same time I also received my countersink drill to be able to remove the old sheet metal so keep it up guys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tchouki85 Posted February 12, 2023 Author Report Share Posted February 12, 2023 hello everyone, well I managed to transfer the sheet metal which was welded on the plate to make the modification Suffice to say that this step was not easy, because in addition to drilling the weld points it was necessary to play the hammer chisel but hey it's done phew 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tchouki85 Posted May 13, 2023 Author Report Share Posted May 13, 2023 Hi FraH2o thank you for your interest in my garage and it's far from over because I got new elements I managed to find myself a GTI stainless steel exhaust line to go with my bumper so I positioned the sheet to trace the cut so I'm ready to cut and i also found the flat spare wheel to fit in the housing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FraH2o Posted May 15, 2023 Report Share Posted May 15, 2023 That's a very good project and I follow you very interested. Will you use another rear bumper or you'll mod your? I also would try to do your project, buat the rear gti wheel housing i think is very hard to find Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tchouki85 Posted May 15, 2023 Author Report Share Posted May 15, 2023 yes the part is becoming very hard to find, either you have to find a 100hp or a wrecked GTI, for the rear bumper I already have it, it's a 100hp one and it's painted in body color so it's great, don't don't take a GTI bumper because this one will be too big and won't fit your tdi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tchouki85 Posted June 5, 2023 Author Report Share Posted June 5, 2023 Hello everyone today is the big day to attack the site to be able to put the rear exhaust in the center so after having clearly identified the assembly, I traced the location for the cutout a little light will be very useful to me and here is the hole therefore stripping of the bare metal sheets then degrease with acetone then gluing the two parts with Teroson 5055 once the two parts spread with glue I redid a cord in order to fill the last interstices then installation of the plate then I made a joint on all the lower part in order to isolate the whole more than left to dry for at least 24 hours and tomorrow afternoon I will tackle the assembly of the stainless steel line 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tchouki85 Posted June 12, 2023 Author Report Share Posted June 12, 2023 Hello everybody small program change, during the assembly of the stainless steel exhaust line of the Lupo gti, I realized that the assembly did not mount the proof in image, in my opinion the bumper of the 100cv is smaller than that of the gti which explains that the stainless steel line does not pass suddenly by checking in my stock of parts, I got my hands on a slightly worn original 100hp so I restarted it by plugging the holes with spot welds, then to reinforce it on the thin sheets, I put steel cold welding installing the muffler and polishing the outlet a little cleaning needed installation of the spare wheel and its accessories installing the bumper small photo shoot at the exit of the car wash,I like the result very much so very happy 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FraH2o Posted June 14, 2023 Report Share Posted June 14, 2023 A very fantastic work! and i my oinion the mono tail of 100 hp is more pretty than twin of lupo GTI. Very good work mate....you're are doing a very beauty. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
