That would be great. What do you need/want for them and will it be ok to have them posted?

I did have a go myself with some ATE line and Laser flaring tool (which produces too small bore after flaring IMO) and I just can't get a result I'm happy with so I am hopeful that you're still making these. Of immediate need are the two fronts (labelled 5 & 6) but I like consistency so I would actually be interested in a full VR6 set.

Around 11:30 am today near Witham A12 junction, a dark J reg Corrado with a purple tint (?) crossing the bridge. So stunned all I could do was point and make ahhh sounds. Great to see one locally and in use :thumbleft:

Hell yes - I'd definitely have one!

Whilst Marshalls do not seem to have a RHD pair in stock at the moment they do have a new N/S RHD mirror if that's any good to you. http://mi-uk.co.uk/epages/950004761.sf/en_GB/?ObjectPath=/Shops/950004761/Products/%22536857501A%20GRU%22 No idea if the LHD mirrors can be fashioned for use on RHD.

Got the wheels back from Spit & Polish today after a tyres off refurb. £312 for the four including tyre, removal, refitting, balancing and shorter valves. They look much better than before and it's nice not to see any corrosion. Although I've got mixed feelings as I thought the finished quality would be much better. But maybe my expectations are too high. At least the colour matching against the centre caps is pretty good and overall the set will look much cleaner. Sent from my HTC 10 using Tapatalk

A part look up on the clip says they're 823867299 and, dare I say it, readily available.

Here's the backside of that trim. So three clips and a screw towards the door. Sent from my HTC 10 using Tapatalk

It hasn't torn but the material has shrunk quite a bit making the corner part tricky to put back. I noticed today that the other side is starting to do the same. No harm in trying and perhaps a bit of heat/conditioner might help in massaging it into position.

The closest I've found was this from Prestige but I wasn't entirely convinced.

The plastic is undamaged so I might have a go at repairing this one. Any idea where I can find the material? Apparently it's black although to the eye I would call it dark grey. Sent from my HTC 10 using Tapatalk

Legs are aching today! I try to avoid sitting on plastic or foam parts as I already killed the driver's bolster in the early days of ownership... Sent from my HTC 10 using Tapatalk

Having taken this off myself today it looks to me like the plastic clip isn't in the hole. It sits about 1.5 inches down from the top. If they don't go in straight they tend to squash up.

The o/s b pillar trim has been peeling away for a long time and really looks bad now. Seems every time I look at it it gets worse. I picked up a replacement some time ago that needed a minor repair and I thought now, given the weather, was a good to time to replace it. Keep it looking presentable. Didn't realise at the time that the rear card needs removing, albeit partially, in order to access the lower screw. With trim removed I was looking at the a & c pillar trim thinking if I just remove those I can possibly slide the headlining sideways and slip it out. Wrong, of course. By now I did not want to put everything back together only to have to remove it again later this year to fix the sunroof. StueyB sold me a working sunroof mechanism last year and since then I have only cleaned, greased it and checked that it worked. I figured it should be a simple case of bolting it in. What I learned from this experience: - The headlining is very fragile and crispy and I was waiting for it to just fold on me but luckily it didn't. Recently I saw a replacement online for well over £200... - Strong thumbs are needed for the seal on the sunroof panel. - Dremel or similar required for trimming the sunroof seal to size. - Not a difficult job but quite time consuming if taking care not to damage parts or break clips. - Useful to have a mechanism to compare and bolt straight up (especially when not having access to a garage). - Ingress of water will happen. I guess the 4 drain points suggest that but I did wonder about using oil or some wax on the 'seal' to help reduce the amount of water that comes in. - It's a small car. What a pleasure to have a sunroof that's now useful :)

Greetings! When I first read this I thought you meant the supercharger was removed but now I realise NA meant North American :). Out of interest is there much difference between Canadian and NA spec? Perhaps one doesn't come with those horrible seat belt setups. Good luck with the body repairs - look forward to future pics and story! I hope you keep the same colour. G

Front Bilstein B4 with Spidan 56599 (340mm) vs Eibach and standard dampers. Resulting stance albeit with only a couple of miles done.

Took me about 9 months to do all four corners for one reason or another. A combination sourcing the right parts and getting good enough weather to do the work. Here's the rear damper assembly with Bilstein B4 and Spidan 56592 spring, which is the closest I could find to the original size (Kilen, for example were listed as being 10mm longer). New rubbers, bearings and bump stops. If I wasn't sure before about the car being lowered, the butchered bump stop gave it away A side by side comparison against what I now know to be an Eibach spring. This is one of the front struts fully assembled. Couldn't for the life of me get the nut off the old strut to change the hats over so had to source new ones.

Not sure what the rules are on posting links to auction sites but happened to come across an abs light on ebay, item 282843070527 (not my auction).

Maybe this one is still available? http://the-corrado.net/showthread.php?103187-Passenger-side-outer-window-scraper

Very fair price. You're a bit far for collection - If you can post to CM13 I would have them. I'll PM my address if it helps get a more accurate quote for p&p. Sent from my HTC 10 using Tapatalk

is that the price each or for all four? Sent from my SGP312 using Tapatalk

The flat one is the same as the one on my Corrado. Sent from my HTC 10 using Tapatalk

I'll take this bundle if I may. I can't see the coil lead in the images so I'll assume it's not available/included. Is posting to Essex ok? Sent from my HTC 10 using Tapatalk

In a cleaning mood today. Washed the front grill and panel. Applied polytrol to the black plastics and a slight polish of the badge to get rid of the worst of the oxidation. Sent from my HTC 10 using Tapatalk

Could have been, yes. Just a little too far from it to say for sure. Interesting colour though - not seen that one before.
