kevscab Posted May 26, 2018 Share Posted May 26, 2018 Hi all. Just bought myself a mk4 cab. Can't wait til Monday to pick her up! Never had one always had mk5! Always wanted one so now is the time to scratch the itch lol question is I know the mk5 have interior lights in the roll bar (perfect place for lights) however the mk4 does not. Has anyone installed any on their mk4? Also is there a guide anywhere to convert manual hood to power? Thanks all. I will be attending some shows in he summer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin Ollie Posted May 28, 2018 Admin Share Posted May 28, 2018 hi kev not seen it done before but im sure it could be . easier to run some led strips from the doors pins maybe there is a guide on here for elecy roof conversion look forward to seeing you at some shows regards ollie :>) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevscab Posted May 28, 2018 Author Share Posted May 28, 2018 Thanks Ollie. Just picked her up absolutely buzzing. Needs a few jobs nut she is a very good base to start. Do you know if you can change the dish bulbs to led? Like behind the Speedo and handbrake light etc So what shows are on the cards? Can't wait Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
