Polo 6n2 FK Angel eye bulbs

Polo 6n2 FK Angel eye bulbs

Hi does anyone know if I can put a different coloured bulb to change the colour of my side lights on my FK angel eyes?
I’ve seen it done on other cars but I can’t remember what bulb I need to get as am sure there are a few which go around the whole light.
Any help ...

I found with mine it was a case of the hight of the pedal becoming lower.
Compare it to your break pedal, as the clutch and break should almost be inline.

The best bet would be to remove the lower trim and lower dash surround on the drivers side and lie on your back and look up with a torch to see ...

Right! Ive found out it aint the gearbox but the pedal box has snapped! :(

Any one had the pleasure of removing a pedal box from a polo 6n2? Or should I say pain lol?

I’ve done Golf mk1 boxes and an Golf Mk2 box but never had a go on the polos or any newer cars to think of it. Think am going to have to take it down to a specialist. Good thing student loan just kicked in. Lol

Rite I’ve just been out in it and it wont even bother going in reverse now without a crunch so have to turn the engine off stick it in reverse then start it again with the clutch down which stops the grinding crunch.
Looks like it’s definitely the box. Going to have to find one ASAP and get it ...

Should I get a new box and get that reconditioned then? As even though I could find a low mileage box its unlikely to be in tip top condition don’t you think?
also what bits are likely to be needed to be done to the gearbox if i get it reconditioned?
