Say what?

:lol: Just need to find a breaker with one or if someone on here is breaking one with that bracket.... :?

Another couple of pics, but camera phone again!

LHD-G60, Rear VW badge?

Showing some love???? :lol: :lol:

Pretty please with a cherry on top? :lol:

dinkus, I already have the afore mentioned centre trim, when I changed all the interior bits for black items (taken from an early G60), but it has four square holes where the centre armrest bracket mounts through :? Don't suppose you've still got your old shell that you could take a picture of the bracket for me? Would give me an idea how the bracket should look? Cheers

Badgers = Badges :lol:

reaper1_3, did you need to remove the front centre runner to fit the TT seats?

I picked up a black interior with the rear hump(!) curtosy of weedwhacker and I want to fit it in my C. Now I currently have the ultra rare poverty spec bench seat, and it doesn't have a bracket for the centre arm rest to fix onto. Is the bracket that I need welded onto the tunnel at the back just infront of the cross member that the seat sits on? If so can anyone suggest what I can do? Does anyone have a spare brackety bit that I can have to put in my C? (Que someone who is breaking a C with a centre armrested rear seat (Dinkus?))

If you have an active system, does that mean there is an amplifier? If so you may have connected the power antenna wire (normally blue) to the remote turn on for the amplifier (normally blue as well!). In which case the powered antenna signal will power the amp when listening to the radio, but turn off when you select the CD player. I've seen this happen before with aftermarket amplififed system.

Oh right! I haven't got a torque wrench, but I just did them up bloody tight! Any idea on the torque setting for these bolts? I'll get a torque wrench this weekend.....more bloody money! :(

Well, Ive just checked my brakes, and it's all my fault!!! The two bolts that hold the caliper onto the carrier had worked themselves loose, and as the caliper worked it was tilting and only half the disc was in contact with the pad (outer edge on the outer pad and inner edge on the inner pad!) What a plonker! I stupidly hadn't used thread lock on the bolts!! That's what happens when you get a muppet to do a mechanics job! Kinda makes you think what could have happened! :(

When I'm stationary or moving quite slowly there is sometimes a clunk that eminates from the front of the car. Could this be my worn front bushes or is it my steering rack? I've got new wishbones and ball joints on order, as the bushes are knackered. Could that be where the noise is coming from?

Same as that. veedub-g60, how many miles has your 9a done?

Pix - No digital camera, so no pics at the mo! Green bulbs - I surely did dude Yeah going to stick with the Bordeaux Pearl, just needs a good tidy up! Just need to fix that front drivers seat, and we'll be away!

Mines the same....:(

Kev, It was just the calipers and pads you sold me! Mind you it was back in January/February to be fair! I fitted brand new Brembo discs from ECP. I had Ferodo DS2500 on the Corrado before the caliper change

I'll retract me previous statement about being wary of them, but I will say that Mr Stiles managed to sell me a supersprint 16v exhaust manifold, 280mm Black diamond brakes, pagid fast road pads for a Mk1 Golf that I didn't have an engine for at the time! Hard sell is not the word, but maybe I'm a little easy to sell to! Never fitted the above (and now sold on) and still have a MK1 Golf shell that has been sat doing nothing for a year or two!

I've done about 1000 miles since fitting them, but mostly motorway driving :?

Recently fitted VR6 calipers MK4 rear calipers. New discs up front and part worn pagid fast road pads (curtosy of kev(supplied with VR6 calipers)) I also had the brakes bled at Stealth last week. Pedal is firm, but the car just doesn't stop very well. In fact it is considerably worse than when I had the standard 256 discs with Ferodo DS2500 pads! Also, soon after fitting the pads and discs, I drove from Cambridge to Shrewsbury, and one of the front discs was blue on the outer edge (about 1cm). I don't have any juddering when I brake though, so I don't think discs are warped. Have I cooked/glazed my pads? If so are they bin fodder or can I take them off, and use some very course sandpaper to remove the glazing?

Heard much the same thing.... :?

Lookin good....8) Why does every Corrado that I see look better than mine? :cry:

FI = Forced Induction

Does that mean I've got a leaky gasket too? (ooh er :lol:)
