  1. lightly tack them on and see for yourself :) i honestly think it will look better with silver badges. and the vr badges back on - i dont think its a stealth option at all!
  2. personally prefer all standard - chrome badge, silver VR6 badge and black grill. rear all standard - chrome VW, corrado and VR6 badges. a chrome front badge would look better than the colour coded one imo. why leave the VR6 badges off?
  3. sure i've got a spare bottle of the 02A fluid - I bought for my g60 but never used it. can have if you want
  4. Wow love those rolling shots. Reminds me that the Corrado is still such a stunning car. Well done with it, looks superb!
  5. you sticking with the engine simon?
  6. did you go through with the 24v conversion?

    keeping busy mate! Those seats should look nice - what are you doing with them then?
  8. Where did you get the short antenna?
  9. i'm like the interior lighting - did JMC do them for you?
  10. are those gemini 3-6 sets still going sean?
  11. No worries mate - seriously download a calculator and you'll see the differences every change makes
  12. Are you changing 5th james? Going to do this to help consumption on the way to the alps ;)
  13. Nope wrong mate - the final drive shortens your ratios. The result is a reduced top speed but better acceleration. As your 5th gear is affected - you can counter the change in that gear by fitting a different ratio from the original 5th cog - thus giving you a taller 5th for cruising. Gears 1-4 are shorter so good for acceleration. The 3.68FD comes from the G60 box. A taller 5th comes from a diesel box - details are on the wiki. Download a ratio calculator and see the differences and speeds achieved from each gear - it'll make sense then :)
  14. You can fit a 5th gear from a diesel iirc - so you can retain that relaxed cruising you enjoy :) Probably 100-200 from VAG - as is the final drive.
  15. Ordered the night breakers - will put up feedback on those - read that the night breakers gave off a slightly whiter light - suppose i'll find out this week
  16. Retrimming the headlining and pillars will cost around 550. Need to be sure you want it!
  17. Anyone tried the Osram Night Breakers? They're 90%/10% and also highly rated. I can't find where to get the Phillips in H3 and H4. The Osrams come in H3 and H4 though. Any suppliers for the Phillips?
  18. I'm not a fan of the uprated headlight loom - the connections worked loose once which led to a scary 5 seconds - and water has also led to another scary 5 seconds. Think the bulbs alone will be enough
  19. done 2000 miles from london all round scotland and back - no problems. its going to the alps this year. as rob said - perfectly capable and nothing to be afraid of - ensure your car is tip top first of course.
  20. sorry call me daft but not following that dave. I've separate bulbs for those lights. What am I missing?
  21. Can the sidelights be changed to something better than the crap VW sell? They barely emit any light...
