J.B. His Seat Leon "Cupra R" - K04-064 TFSI Conversion

[mike1981]

Epic build

 

[J.B.]

Been busy with tinting my windows again. Did it 4 years ago with no experience at all. So they were full of cracks. But at that time I didn't mind. But now with more experience, I did it with better tinting film.

Old film....

Left the cheap film and right the Sungard 20%. Left is much more blue than black.

Left cheap film en right no film. See how blue...

Left no film and right the Sungard 20%. Well thats black and not blue.

And the result. Much better.

Second project was the climate control conversion. Broke a lever on the manual aircobox. Thought it was an easy job to replace only the aircobox but turned out not to be. So decided, when the complete interior was out, to place a climate control. So everything out.


New parts in.

And testing.

Got one rubbish photo how it looks now, without the glovebox in. Instal the glovebox this evening and take better pictures.

Hello, friend! Really like your project! I'm also self building a Leon. If you can, please tell me more about that conversion. I'm with manual control and I want to swap it. What are the parts needed, what is swaping and is everything working ok?
By the way - I made the 4 doors and mirrors electrical conversion so if you need help with info I can tell you whatever you want!

Wow that's a lot of work! Impressive mate. Looks great for it though

 

[bwilkinson]

Loads of graft gone it to that mate, definitely worth it from the look of it though.

Thanks for the link! I'm going to try it. But if you have time and you want you can send me some info about your conversion

 

[J.B.]

What do you want to know?

 

[Iwan]

At first all the parts I need to take from another car?

 

[J.B.]

Parts:
- Climatronic Airbox with all motors, sunlight sensor and loom attached
- Climatronic Control Panel
- Kufatec Loom (or make your own loom using the donor vehicle wiring)
- Sensor in the centre console with the other front.

I've got the Kufatec Loom. I recomment to buy one. Otherwise you have to change the complete interior loom.

 

[Iwan]

Can you give me pictures of all the stuff? Sorry that I take your time and spam your topic but you are the only one that I know made this swap. Thank you for help!
