Re: My EX BG VR6 3.2 build
I don’t have adblue so I should be ok with that side of things mind you I do have a window screen washers bottle that might get in the way.
Just need to find the loom connectors.

Re: My EX BG VR6 3.2 build
Thanks Peter.
It should be finished painting by Saturday.
So could be on in a couple of weeks. Need to get the fog lights wired to the BCM and the headlight washer jet.
I not sure yet if I need to change my washer bottle for a mk4 because of the fog lights.

Re: My EX BG VR6 3.2 build
I wasn’t sure if the BCMs on our vans supported fogs……that’s good to know mate.
Some guys have heated and reshaped the washer bottle I’ve read, might be worth a try

I’ve had to change my BCM to take the fog lights.
The one that came with my caddy didn’t support fogs

@Dislexicdonkey
I had some start it but I had to finish it.
It’s now gone to be painted and when it comes back I’ve got to do the fog lights and the headlight washer jets before I can fit it

Re: My EX BG VR6 3.2 build
I’ve seen a guy on eBay making them and selling them for £1499. Looks like top work that they do the pictures really make the vans stand out with that front end.
Have you seen the gti grills they make too? £400 for one but makes it look a lot more up to date.
I love it mate I think it’s going to look awesome

Re: My EX BG VR6 3.2 build
@Dislexicdonkey thanks buddy.
I can see why they are selling for £1499 the mk8 GTI bumper are £600+ then you got the touran bumper from £150-£200 then labour it all mounts up

Re: My EX BG VR6 3.2 build
I couldn’t find the right wiring loom for the front fog lights for the mk8 GTI bumper so I had to make my own.
Tested them on the work bench to make sure they work had to check I wired them up right.
