No problem at all and thank you for comment. They look simple enough but there are in fact lots of different elements and a bit of a pig to get right, and they have to be right. Everyone was tests prior to final clean and packing. Thank you for you purchase and as always, I am on messenger if you are stuck with anything - only a phone call away. First 2 batches now all issued out. Been a busy couple of weeks. Shipment to US today has cleared me out of Drive Cable until June 14th. - Cheers Krado ð

All fully tested. I am a stickler like that ð

I'm afraid not. Must be me. Vids are about 27mb and MP4 format. maybe I am just not important enough ðĪ

Super. Thank you for your support. Would I do it again?? - not a chance, but once started, one must solider on. ðĪ having said that, I am now going to have to re-design parts number # 722 686 987 L1 and 722 686 988 RE. These are the final weak elements in the sunroof. I have studied it so much now that me head hurts so i know exactly what works and what fails. More to the point, the reasons why. On a more sombre note, the Drive chariots works a treat . YEAH !!!!! Proof of the pudding vid on FB page 20210521_104637 (1) (1).mp4

Hah, no problem at all. These things happen. Hopefully will be 100% tested over the weekend. I tested to destruction the proof of concept so not expecting any nasty surprises this time around ð

Most expensive sunroof in the world, mine that is ðĪŠ. Still, will be happy to cover costs. This is not my usual gig. Happy to share notes, as there are more parts that may be needed for sunroof repairs. Same parts are shared with the Golf 3, that is if there are any left from scavenger. Sunroof drive cable was a challenge to say the least, and trying to get people to finally make what I designed and understand the critical nature of the components was a tough one. Still, got good manufacturer now that I know can deliver ð

Will be running a full and final test of all parts over the weekend. There are a lot of subtle improvements gone into these parts but not so anybody will really notice. I'm going to have mine open even on dull days ð

Cheers Keyo. Go for it, it is a wonderful thing ð

Cheers Cressa. From sketch to ready for shipping about 9 weeks. Been a hell of a journey, but I feel I have done my small part with keeping the corrado alive. Worth a mention, and advise for anybody embarking on such a journey, there is alot work in any mechanical part and the amount of investment, plus time, is considerable. K

Happy little soldiers - Preview - Final Assembly under way

Much appreciated. Thank you kindly. I did have a CF Illness that is all cured now ( Sunday meets and hours and hours of online banter) ð and I am still married ðĪŠ. Back to Corrado ownership only this time, the C needs a little more Love and Care. Mrs, has mellowed as well, so All is Good in the Hood ðĪ

Hi All. I have had a little sabbatical from The CF. ( OMG has it been that long.... ðĪ) Was locked out for some time but password reset seemed to work just fine this time around. Happy to answered any or all questions in relation to the Sunroof repair parts. Cheers Krado

Few nasty surprises when stripping my C's interior
K-rado replied to gsbellew's topic in General Car Chat
Thats, Mad GS, shocking to say the least :shock: -
Dave ordered one and then cancelled a few days after, maybe give the crowd he ordered off a buzz just incase it has landed anyway! He kept that quiet :lol: not sure he knows what he is doing. selling that peach of a VR and getting another MK1? Mad, and think he will regret it. I have sent him a PM on VAGdrivers. Cheers Blue :D

Had a look on the web site 2day, looks cool. Been up to my eyes in it at work so did not have a chance to make contact. 380 for the charger sounds ok-ish. was the 350 for remap of oem chip or is there one supplied with the charger chip. Whats the score with the water injection? anybody
-
Nice to see u on line, Ya, good meet-up, and blast up the M7, that old Mk1 held her own :D Your G was hot on the pace 2! Cracking, with that Grey leather. I want the Schrick cos it looks the dogs and for the low-end torque. the VR is great at mid to high end torque, but you have to drive her hard to get the enjoyment you would normaly get from a light valver. Smoking :twisted:

Anyway, Back on topic, Thanks Eric for your help. I will post details of the bitz when I get a mo :D
