    Golf 3 Headlight switch

    wilkes replied to fla's topic in Interior

    did this in mine ,as i did have a mk3 dash but im switching back now ,wiring still has the mk3 switch on though ,most of the wires are the same colours just need connecting

    i am driving mk3 gti at the mo while my corrados off the road,not bad cars at all ,not as good as a corrado but not dissapointing ! ,if you have a gti ,be prepared for every chav trying to race you ,i get left alone in he raddo ,but the golf seems to attract a lot of nobheads in corsa's and the like trying it on

    i once went to fetch a part from bmw for my girlfriends car ,and the lad in the parts department had no idea what an e36 was !!! i had to point at cars on the carpark and explain it was the one before that one (pointing at a later model) didn't fill me with confidence

    ddn't they make a few g60 storms ,i seem to remember oe for sale when i was looking for mine ,he wanted 2 grand for a ar with no mot and a blown head gasket ,and i really wanted it !!!! hope it wasn't just badged up ,cos hat would make me stupid

    ive got a light skim over the plastic welded section to get rid of imperfections ,but im sure a pro could do it without needing filler ,mine hasn't cracked ,when i first tried it i just used fller and it lasted 3 days ,the section behind the number plate is a lot more flexible than the rest of the bumper ,so it does have to have a peice welded in ,and i stick the late in the window ,but only on a long run ,not for local trips

    spent the last few onths smoothing the engin bay and changing the wiring ,its coming back together now but not quick enough ,im missing it bad now pics

    they can come round and clean mine ,as long as they use good polish and that .bit ungrateful id be happy especially as its got 12 years of crap on it

    its been a while since i did my test but im sure their taught that now ,does seem obvious though

    sounds like a good idea ,points on your license ,i mean they are the rules of the road and their not following them,dont think the police would be tht intereste though ,doesn't make em enough cash .

    wilkes replied to villie's topic in Drivetrain

    i had the little plastic t peice where the bottle pipe branches off cracked and the steering went ,i didn' drive it when it was gone so i cant answer the questions but it may be worth checking it .

    contact adhesive !! that will stick it ,you brush it on let it dry then push together ,majorly strong stuff which i think they use to stick leather on with ,can get it from wickes for about 8 quid for a tub ,i stuck some leather own with it then a few months after tried to rp it off and it pulled bits of wood with it !!!

    i did the roof rails ,i welded metal strips i then a ight skim of filler ,and its okay only been done a year though !! smoothed front number plate is a cool looking mod .
  22. wilkes
    ive got a 2 litre ,had the standard brakes and it was very good ,but a bit scary if you were at high speeds ,so i fitted cross drilled and grooved g60 discs with the caliper carriers and its better still ,my bro has a 52 reg corsa sxi and there only as good as those though ,better technology i suppose .
  23. wilkes
    thats shocking ,total bastards ,i hope you find em and teach em a lesson ,cos the police wont !! good luck with it mate
  24. wilkes
    thats a bit of a bitch ,shouldn't be much hassle now though ??
