  1. No chap Im off there first week of next month to get a few jobs done, yours might be gone by then to be fair .
  2. Think they go from anything between 1k- 1.5 , however someone might pay more as they dont often come on the market . This one looks a bit tatty and the shtick emblem is missing and also cannot see the auxiliary parts that should come with it .
  3. Ill be down at Stealth shortly mate Ill check your car out, white is a great colour for the Rado I wouldn't give it a second thought. I think a red front grill + rear badge would compliment the white paint work though. Rembrandt does a front and rear set for around 80 euros I think.
  4. Price reduced for all parts and delivery to UK £65.00.
  5. Look at this beautiful G60 on youtube , you could eat your dinner off the engine bay, you wouldn't want to use the car and park it in the house :camp:.
  6. Brilliant black is a great colour, I think Vince has one in that colour as well , his is black anyway not sure which code, I ll have a butchers at yours and PM you, I'm visiting there in a couple of weeks, is the car with the original paint job . Lm great , Tarmac 1552 look cool to.
  7. Love a Mk2 golf GTI in black followed closely by royal blue. Actually on the look out for a 16v if an unmolested one comes on the market for a good price.
  8. What's happening with your other Corrado at Stealth mate ?
  9. This might help. http://the-corrado.net/showthread.php?48060-pics-of-Brilliant-Black-Metallic-LA9V-corrados
  10. Just fitted the door card speakers and the Alpine are a direct fit with no modding what so ever, gave the the wing mirror contacts a nice spray with the old wd40 electric contact cleaner spray and now that is working a treat as well, happy days. Put a small copper pipe on the door locking pin and that directed the door card nicely back in to position.
  11. If you have them I would def swap them out , unplug speaker, three bolts underneath each trim, philips screw on seat belt lower trim , remove trim and undo 2 philips screws, speaker will now drop out, undo four bolts holding grill on to speaker, bingo.
  12. VR^ South, You are correct the front dash speakers are not a direct fit, the corner tabs of the speaker will have to be modified to fit into the speaker grill.
  13. Changed out the rear stock speakers today for the Alpines. Took me under 20 minutes to take out the rear speaker/parcel shelf housing and fit the new speakers in. The speakers fit in fine without modding the speaker trim housing, the nuts and stock rubbers are a little large but pinched on the speaker fine at an angle, just don't over tight. I can vouch this is the best £40 I have spent on my car yet for speakers and adaptors, what a difference no clatter tat tat anymore!!
  14. They felt like a Moths wing . Also ordered some original door card screws and door pull screws from Seat Hortons, had a couple missing from the door and speaker door cards . Free delivery. SCREW N 01414112 SCREW N 90157501 http://www.seatpartsshop.co.uk/ Was looking at the door card membrane, going to be a crap job removing the old waterproof tape.
  15. Just took the rear Nokia speakers out the housing, I can confirm they are like a wafer fin crisp lol, glad Im changing them.
  16. Nice one P Ill have a look at the speaker part numbers you have listed. Talking of door cards I've got some door membranes sheet and double sided butyl tape sitting next to me, basically had a Birmingham Bin bag and decorators tape in the door card lol ! I think the front speakers are worth fitting because they are 2 way and have in built tweeters.
  17. I'm not much of an audiophile myself either but clattering blown speakers are quite an annoyance so would just like to remedy that really.
  18. Do the dash front speaker grills four corner tabs fix the front speakers into the round dashboard housing through the corners of the speaker ? Thanks . [ATTACH=CONFIG]97128[/ATTACH]
  19. Thanks I will have a read of this.
  20. Ha Shaun the Internet is the largest Library in the world ! Well think I'm going to get my butt down Bass Junkies near Wolves , they are the ones selling these off ebay and Ive met the owner several times as he use to own a R129, so reckon he will fit them free on the spot for me . Front speakers https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/ALPINE-SXE-1025S-4-10cm-2-way-360-Watts-Car-Van-Audio-Coaxial-Speakers/351121245342 Rear speakers https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/ALPINE-VW-Corrado1988-1995-4x6-10x15cm-2-way-300W-Car-Coaxial-Rear-Speakers/351126529629?_trksid=p2485497.m4902.l9144 So all in £68 nippers for x4 Alpine speakers fitted, got to be a no brainier. I'll let everyone know if they fit stock.
  21. Cheers Fen. Ive just had the dash speaker grills off and the original speakers have been swooped out for these unbranded tweeters . Is this a good or bad thing? The springs are keeping the wooden housing in tight to be fair and the grill hides them. The front door speakers have got some quality Alpine installed so that's a bonus. Rear speakers have the original VW Nokia but blown. [ATTACH=CONFIG]97126[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=CONFIG]97127[/ATTACH]
  22. Are these these the adaptors for rear speakers ?? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/VW-Volkswagen-Corrado-Speaker-Adaptor-Adapter-Plug-Leads-Cable-Connector/172979753907?epid=19009506038&hash=item28466593b3:g:F-cAAOSwbtNaCsFX&frcectupt=true
  23. Cool Shaun , are the Alpine speakers the same as the link . https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/ALPINE-VW-Corrado1988-1995-4x6-10x15cm-2-way-300W-Car-Coaxial-Rear-Speakers/351126529629?_trksid=p2485497.m4902.l9144 Cheers.
  24. Thanks but keeping the car stock all ready had to source a parcel shelf because the last owner had butchered it.
  25. Hi All, Bit of advice if I may. My two rear stock speakers, the small ones each side of the rear parcel shelf are basically blown and make really annoying noises. I believe they are 4x6 (10cm x 15cm). I do not want to do any cutting or chopping of the trims they sit in and have read that a lot of aftermarket ones the magnets are to large at the bottom of the speaker, so people have had to chop the bottom of the rear speaker trim housing to fit them in. Has anyone fitted rear speakers that are a direct fit without any trim chopping. I have seen these for sale off ebay. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/ALPINE-VW-Corrado1988-1995-4x6-10x15cm-2-way-300W-Car-Coaxial-Rear-Speakers/351126529629?epid=57352227&hash=item51c0c5a65d:g:PlUAAOSwQItT0ORH Any recommendations of a direct fit would be great. Thanks.
