Raceland Primo | COILOVER INSTALL | GTI Gets Adjustable Dampers Coilovers!!! MK5 | MK6 | VW

FINALLY!! I've been wanting to upgrade my suspension for so long and it's finally happening! Spent a lot of time making this video, hope you guys enjoy it. I tried to be as detailed as I can, the only thing missing in this video is probably the part where I mount the top hats of the coilovers. It's pretty much just putting the top hat on and secure it with the top strut nut and torque to 44 ft-lb(front), 18ft-lb(rear). I also recommend to use new top hats instead of reusing the old ones. This way we don't have to deal with compressing the stock spring and disassemble the stock strut.

Don't forget to reinstall the head light level sensors on the rear control arm.
