I found a good technique but really needs a photo to show it. I stick a flat screw driver in the front hole on the clip (glass side) then lever the screwdriver back and down towards rear of light. It should just lift the front of clip up and away from the glass without putting any pressure on the glass

Mine is leaking from same place, i hope its just my o-ring, as i have a nearly new VW rad, and the gruvenparts elbow etc, also quite new, the brackets are the stainless one too. Going to take it apart and check it out, is the oring just a normal round one?

I have got one. Still has stickers in good condition too. Will be able to get photo off phone tomorrow. ---------- Post added at 10:30 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:09 PM ----------

I used this stuff http://www.transair.co.uk/sp+3M-Adhesive-Spray-80-Neoprene-Contact-Adhesive-500ml+YP208061249?utm_campaign=Googlebase&utm_medium=organic&utm_source=Googlebase Didn't find many places selling it, but the paperwork said to use 3m #80. I wouldn't bother doing the greaseproof paper method that it mentions, i just sprayed the foam with glue, then stuck it on, you get a little bit of time to slide them about into the right place. Then i just kept pushing it on as it just wants to fall off until the glue starts setting.

Fitted mine yesterday, one of the last jobs i had to do, almost ready to turn the key after 18months

Bummer I totally forgot to look. Am home now and going to work on car in a bit. So will find it.

I am after two of these wheels, thought i'd ask here. Is some on ebay but they are stupid prices, one guy wants £75 a wheel, another wants £30-40 and they look like someone poured paint stripper on them.. I want them to put my other two winter tyres on, already got two

Can tell its fake because the badge is in the wrong place. Dead giveaway.

Will have to look later on when i get home

:lol: @ festive period

I might have one, i find the screw holes wear out over time and the screws no longer grip properly. Bought another one or two and they were the same so i just melted the underside of hole a little and screws do up tight again. Can get the new stickers on ebay as well i think ---------- Post added at 9:50 AM ---------- Previous post was at 9:49 AM ---------- Painted mine satin black

Mine is on 194,000miles now and the engine is about the only bit that hasn't needed any work. Just done timing chains and the tensioners were quite worn, but engine still ran ok. I bought mine on 130k and have all the old history and its only had a new injector and crank sensor

Some of mine, think its the same area you mean, the underseal hides so much corrosion. I only planned to repair the small hole in the wing, thats all i could see Other side was similar After cutting some metal out

i can't remember how i did mine now

I've already got three so hopefully ok for a while :lol: Could they make the late ABS light unit that goes in the dash, seems to be a sought after part these days

I used a sharp chisel to scrape off underseal, you won't know where to stop once you start finding bits :lol: Then i treated the rust with the POR15 stuff, = Marine clean, metal ready and the rust paint, then i just brushed on the schutz stuff, then i sprayed it with some wax coating. Am sure rust will come back as i got to the point of madness and kinda rushed it all at the end, will deal with it next summer.

Still here. Will put it on eBay next week.

i can't believe OSV sold you a car with rusty tank straps :!

Damn, i really need some of them

Just put two extinguishes in mine after some stories on here, got a foam one and a Co2 one. If i don't have a fire, i'm told they are good for scaring lions and polar bear etc

I can't imagine the feeling walking over and seeing something like that, gutted for you :( Hope you find the culprit, if you want me to drive my escort into their car i'd be up for that.

Its a nightmare to get the plinth off, i really struggled with that one. Heat gun melted it, i ended up snapping it off and replacing it

Opened the rear hump in my corrado and found the original copy of the bible :!

Eat a clove of garlic raw
