Hi Rob, Thanks for the quick reply. I've managed to source one and I've go another one with some missing internal bits. I'm hoping between the 3 I have that I'll be able to clean up enough bits to make a good switch...if not I'll PM you in a week or so! Thanks, Nick

Is the ISV available? What year is the car? I'm after a replacement for a 92 plate, 9A, 2l16V. Is the interior early or late, I'm after an early mirror adjustment switch. Thanks, Nick
-
Any update on these? Just stumbled across this thread and it looks like some news is imminent. Great effort in looking in to this. Thanks.

Hi, Are the Metering head and injectors still available. I'm in the Rugby area so not too far from you, so could pickup? Thanks, Nick

Hi, Is the power steering pump still available...thread seems quiet for a clearout? I have a 92 2l16v, I've put back on the road after being rested for 6 years and I need a few bits...

Corrado Spotting! Was it you? [Archive January 06]
Padman replied to bristolbaron's topic in General Car Chat
Started a new job before Xmas and this is the first time I've seen a C on my new route up the A14, I was going my normal leisurely speed :twisted: at 7.30 past the lorries and spotted a lovely, violet, 'M' plate VR6 that pulled up behind and followed for a bit. Gave me a wave as I turned off at J2. :thumbleft: So.... Hello! Nice car, really liked the colour. Cheers, Nick -

Hi, I do. Fitted at Stealth about 12months ago. Vince said the fit was good. I'm at work at the moment. I'll post up this evening. Cheers, Nick 8)

A nice, lazy Sunday afternoon spent fitting a top quality headlight loom from Gavin (H100VW). Really great to deal with. Friendly and extremely helpful. Everything went smoothly and I now have bright shiny, lights for the Winter! Highly Recommended (in a true ebay stylie!) Thanks :D

I had this happen to me. It turned out to be a fuse had gone... from memory fuse 14. I think my mirrors stopped working too. I've got the early style interior and mirror switches so should be the same wiring as in a G60. Hope that helps. Cheers.

Hmmmmm.... midlandwheels weren't able to help as they "don't sell BBS alloys!" Is this the specification I need to be asking for? M12x1.5x23.5 and they need to be the radius type as opposed to 60deg tapered? Going a bit nuts over bolts :brickwall: He he?!#! :wink: Apologies for hijacking your thread Mike.
-
Thanks for the quick replies! I've emailed midlandwheels and asked for part numbers... I'll post them up when they reply and order myself a set. Thanks for the offer kevhaywire, I'll let you know how I get on with midlandwheels... but very grateful for the offer. Shiny finish.... shame they'll be hidden under the centre cap... until some chav knicks it! (I really shouldn't tempt fate :silent: ) Thanks

Hi, I've just fitted some G60 alloys to my 2l 16V and removed some awful TSW alloys and i have the same problem as Mike.... wrong bolts. Just off the phone to VW in Coventry and they discontinued the bolts to go with the G60 alloys in 2003!!! The bolt size he gave me was M12x1 5x23x5. This doesn't mean a lot to me and I'm not sure if I wander down to Halfords they'll give me the right thing. Anyone got 16 spare bolts :wink: or know of somewhere where I can buy some (at a reasonable price preferably!) Thanks

Been having window related electrical problems but stumbled across a set of PDF files on a German Corrado enthusiast site. They're in English but don't know how accurate they are. Maybe someone else has seen them before. Be interested if someone could verify how accurate they are.

All you Dark Burgundy Pearl owners - lets see your pics!
Padman replied to Bojmobile's topic in Members Gallery
:scratch: Oh yeah! The hpi did say red. I suppose that's down to someone in an office going "Burgundy", that's spelt R-E-D..... Next! Nevermind, when it's shiny and sparkly the Burgundyness will be shining through! 8) Anyway... Hopefully the weather will be kind this weekend and they'll be pics soon. :twisted: -

Time to bump this thread as this is the colour of my first C. :D In need some advise of what to use to bring out the colour (and hopefully tidy up the light scratches) The sunroof locking mechanism is also damaged so when the sunroof is opened it scratches above the passenger seat :( Would be nice to get some advise and put up some before and after pics. MMmmmm. Dark Pearlescent Burgundy (LC3U). 8) -
Picked up my first C last night, a few things I missed. One was that there are ARE gouge marks on the rear of the sunroof above the passenger seat. Doh! :roll: The motor works it tilts, opens and closes.... but gouges! Sounds like it's a common(ish) problem. Any ponters of where to look to see what is gouging and what to do about it? Thanks
