Well, After nigh on 10 years i've been on here with no issues off other members who have sold me items in the past i think that Member Seanfordrod deserves a mention of how not to sell items.. I bought a pair of corrado door handles off him a few weeks back. I asked him much roughly to post them here to Rome, Italy so he says £15 should cover postage and if it comes to less he'll refund the difference. The actual postage came to exactly £6.60.. I'm still waiting for the difference to be refunded AND the driver's door handle has cut wires that have been crudely repaired with tape,no mention of this before buying the handles.. just to add insult to injury.. Sean mate, if and when your next tuned in and seeing as you don't answer my messages i've sent you, I'll try and see if it'll work through the forum, CAN I HAVE THE POSTAGE DIFFERENCE REFUNDED PLEEEEEEEEEEEZE..FFS.

Let me check tomorrow morning for a set of early fogs and a rh headlamp, might be couple of reflectors aswell. Send me your email and i'll send you a few photos of what's there.

Allright then guys, A mate of mine has got a broken bonnet cable clip, the one that holds the outer cable's sheath onto the bonnet release handle. Obviously, here in Rome there's fuk all available..as usual. Anyone help out here? Even a spare cable would be great too. Cheers.

Send me your address mate, i'll pop one in a jiffy bag and send you it.

Hi Kev, I dropped the bloody cog on the floor.. I've found 1 in the usa at a good price, we'll see..

Hi Jamie, Good spot mate. I've heard mixed opinions on these fogs, many say that the light output when compared is crap.. I might look into it though. Cheers.

Right chaps, Seeing as i can't find a spare second Vr6 CCM second gear anywhere i'm forced to try somfink else.. All i want is a longer second gear so if i use my spare 02J passat tdi gear cluster that's got one tooth less on second than the vr6 ccm's version couldn't i just use the longer CCM final drive that came with the VR6's gearbox internals instead, in place of the DQY's final drive that has 1 less tooth? Any ideas?

Totally different glass mate, the older version is wedge shaped were as the '92 onwards versions have flat glass and are part of the housing, glued in. Let me have a look down in garage if i've got a spare one and let me know if you still have your old foglamp glass as i need one.

After damaging 2nd gear on my spare gearbox i'm forced to try and find a spare. Here in Italy you can forget it, just nothing available. What other options are there? I'm thinking of the mk3 golf vr6 or passat, both of which were not available here..

Right then fellow dubbers, It seems that i've caused myself a huge problem. Whilst rebuilding my spare CCM vr6 gearset i dropped the fukkin 2nd gear cog on the floor, chipping a few teeth.. Anyone got a spare 2nd gear they wanna sell or the whole gear train? The gearbox code is CCM but any version would suffice as long as the cog has 36 teeth. Cheers.

PM sent.

Hey Gareth, What have you got left of the body work? The two doors, tailgate, remaining wing and back bumper? Let me know mate, cheers.

That's fine mate, later i'll get a photo and let you know which side handle it's off. Cheers.

Hey Chris, That'd be great, i really only need the small return spring as mine has snapped. If you've got both springs for both sides even better.

No mate, i've got a load of repair bits including the kits dave does. The only part i don't have is one fà#king spring that returns the lever..

Right, Which one of you nice gents have by any chance a spare door handle sping, the one that returns the locking lever bit inside the door handle with the pin running through it? Busted door handle would also be ok but i only need the small spring.. Cheers.

Any chance of getting answered regarding the foglamps mate??

Ok Sean. Send me your PayPal details mate and post them here to Rome, Italy and let me know the difference in postage. I reckon £10/15 should cover it as it's £20 to post off two headlights. Cheers-Andrew.

Shaun, are those door handles any good? If they are, how much for both? Cheers.

Welcome aboard Andreas, Check the vr over carefully and look out for any common problems. Best of luck mate!

I'd have them if they fit a G60 but as they don't they're no use to me guys. Thanks anyway cinadine.

What's the difference between the vr6 bonnet foams and g60 ones?

I mean't all the internal gubbins aswell, getting out the motororised part is easy. I need to be able to seperate the flexi bit that bends inwards in the event of being knocked back but i can't find a way of realising the two. The main problem is that ferkin main short spring and bayonet type fixing, i can seperate the two halfs but it's nigh on impossible to relocate. Surely there's a way or are they designed fit and forget?

I'm sure it's been asked umpteen times already but after using the search and getting nowt i wanted to ask how the door mirror outer shell is removed for repainting, repair work etc? I've already bugged a few trying various techniques but to no avail.. Ideas pleeze.
