I’m gonna install a Stag 400Dpi with Hana gold injectors and KME R2 Twin reducer till 395KM should be enough. I did install lpg before then I’m sure all gonna be fine. It’s just my first FSI engine that’s only different.

Night vision need to wait a bit as I don’t have air bag for a new steering wheel and I want to install few thinks together. I’m still looking for a new dashboard with head up display cut out. Not many for sale on eBay.

Should be with me next week, the we will see.

I’m not rush as I don’t have a lot of time right now , just weekend for my own.

that's great to see you're modifying the D4 already!!

As there is a few of us very local we should meet up post lockdown.

We can meet up at beckton triangle/retail park or something near there.

Top work on the retrofits.

I'd be interested to know more about the heated steering wheel retrofit and what's needed exactly.

Also, i remember you car the airbox was damaged?? did you fix that?

Hi guys.
Some small update about my work progress

Then on a first line it’s go a head up display as is quite a lot of work
It was not easy to buy a dashboard for hard up display mounting but it was possible and it cost £300 included delivery. (4H1 857 067B)

Head up display and trim I bought like months ago and cost me £280 (4H0 919 617A) and (4H2 868 061A)

Also we need two plastic brackets, I bought them on Audi device and they cost included screws around £26. (4H2 857 745A and 4H2 857 746A)

10pin connector is necessary to connect that unit to a loom, there is two grand wires, two positive wires na two can wires. (1J0 972 930A)

One think what I did not bought it was a steering column bracket because I did some job on my one. Basically standard one don’t have a attachment for head up display brackets. But is easy to make some by yourself. That’s a correct bracket number (4H2 419 250)

After installation you need to code 5f and 19 address by vcds for head up display
And also make some changes on MMI in green menu.

Today I was finish some bits about heated steering wheel.
I was add three extra wires what was a signal cable between switch and a steering module. Also 12v supply for a heated steering wheel for a main plug of steering module.

To finish that I coded 08 module for extra option of steering wheel all rest was already coded.

Currently waiting for a steering airbag
