dont know if you still need to know this ,just found it searching for a problem on mine ,both mk3's and raddo's are ce2 so if you can get the loom up from the fuse box it will plug right in ,but the foglights wont work of the mk3 switch you still need the raddo one ,if you still want know how to splice it in ill write it down cos i have my car here now

the triangle bit you have mentioned is the water outlet ,it sits on the head ,surely the manifold would have to go round it like the original ,heres a pic.

could be ignition switch ? dont they still run if the relay is gone ,just goes into safe mode ,i had a mk3 with one gone and it just used more fuel ,only ever cut out once and that was after caning it ,overfuelled and flooded i think .

didn't mean to post that twice ! no i didn't have to weld any thing ,just a skim of filler ,i also removed the sound deadening (i presume) from behind it ,and that was a right b1tch ,also dont forget youll need someway to mount the one wiper bolt ,and somewhere to put the coilpack/coil

cant see as it would be structural ,theres not enough to hold it in ,i dont have any pics of it during taking it out ,ive got one of it finished though
-
its tacked on ,pretty easy to remove,managed to get mine out in half a day

tried the fiberglass/filler a few times and it kept cracking ,plastic welded it in the end then skimmed with filler and its still okay 12 months on
