Fitted my new black mirror caps. For a modern car, that was the easiest job ever.
Red Mk6 gone replaced with a white Mk7 which has gone too. Green Mk2 here to stay.

That's good to know, I've got mine here for as soon as car arrives.
That way I can package up the originals and know they are brand new.

Just don’t follow 99% off the vids on YouTube... I did mine without removing the mirror.

Used my OBDeleven in anger for the first time.

Added fogs activating with high beam including the flash function, fan speed in auto and rain closure. Found it dead easy to use, you simply need to know what to change. Impressed!

Overall, it's already paid for itself with those few things.

It really is a brilliant bit of kit for the money. We're you already an android user Graham?

Morning All, hope everyone had a fab xmas and new year :)

I purchased my OBDeleven yesterday currently in transit to me  :grin:

I did NOT purchase the pro pack, purely because i wont be going mental with coding i just want to do a couple of minor things ie

soundaktor volume
windows with the key fob (had this on my mini and loved it)
Fogs with high beam is one i also want to add

I know some things dont require the pro pack where as others do what i wanted to ask was when i look at the app just now in the corner of each setting there is a C and a number is this telling me how many credits i require to carry out the one touch apps i thought the soundaktor and some light settings didnt require the pro pack ?

TIA

Jen

Windows with the key fob Jeni?

You mean being able to wind up the windows when you lock the car and open them when you unlock it?

That's possible without anything... just hold down the lock (to wind up) or unlock button (to wind down)

Its enabled in the car settings menu if its not enabled already....
Current: Mk8 GTI DSG, Adelaides, DCC, HUD, HK, Winter Pack, Rear Camera.. Aka "HMS Weasel"

Gone: 2017 Mk7.5 GTD,manual, NavPro
Gone: 2014 Mk7 GTD, manual, NavPro, DCC

You're very limited to what you can do without the pro version. Not even sure you can do the fogs with main beam.

Even with the credits I'm not sure you can do it. The credits only let you use the built in apps to change things and I don't remember seeing that there when I looked. If I remember there were only a handful of stuff you could do.

I'll have a look later for you.
