Good to see another Pre-Facelift to Facelift conversion :D
I managed to get the rear and front Lights working on my MY2010.5 TDI Scirocco with VCP (VAG Can Professional). I was messing and messing with VCDS on Byte 18 and never got good results

From what I was explained, the Light Parameters on the new cars with PQ35 platform are directly configured after the Standard EEPROM Settings. It means the coding remains "00" but the Lighting values are directly inserted/customized on that. With VCP, I just chose and uploaded the settings from a file I was given and it worked!

Best regards!

You know its funny .. the first time I saw a scirocco pas by me I just knew I wanted one for myself!! and 2 years later, without even trying the car first to see if it was acutually as good as it looked, I had ordered a completly new Scirocco at the local dealer :D :p and it was really a one of a kind feeling to pick it up 3 month later :hyper:

But must say that I have NEVER regret doing so and I still get happy every time I go out to my car in the morning :P

Also gave it a lot of love today with the weather so good

It's the strip that some ppl have on the bottom of the front spoiler to give it a more aggressive race look. The carbon fibre one on for sale has some pictures.

Are you planning to lower your car?

Haha awesome work!! :)

Like the new rear end but prefer the old R front end, might do the rear conversion on mine!!

Lot of work with the electronics, surprised you got it all to work although I think the computers are still A5 platform just with a newer look. The central gauges at the top I really like and wanted to see if I could retrofit!

Its easy to retrofit but you will have to buy a new dashboard .. or you could try your luck with cutting a hole yourself but I REALLY cant recommend it ;)

Amazing job! Well done!
Wouldn't it cost you less money if you sold it and bought a genuine facelift car?

Well .. Not in Denmark .. I genuine faceliftet scirocco would cost around 31.000£ In DK Because of a dumb, idiotic and stupid tax system .. And I think I can get around 19.000-20.000£ And so far I have spend somewhere between 3500-4000£ all in all :) which I personally think isn't so bad :)

But on the other hand .. If I had bought a genuine faceliftet scirocco then it would be no fun because it would just like all the other "standard" 2015 model ... And in someways is more fun build that to just buy :) if you know what I mean :)
