Corrado Forum Next buttons not working on windows
joebloggsVR69 replied to johnpmc22's topic in Newbies Hangout
Yep, still broken for me too. The problems all started years ago, when the new owner took over from Andy and migrated the forum to a new platform. One minor change that I've noticed is that clicking on the forum logo image at the top of the page no longer shows the list of new posts. I'm sure it was working before.. -
Corrado Forum Next buttons not working on windows

It's been broken for years -
Around £15

The VW parts catalogue shows convex and flat mirror glass, so you might have the convex type
-
Post up a picture of the mirror, I think some models had part of it that magnified (wide angled) - I'm pretty sure my old G60 did, but my VR6 doesn't. This is what my G60 mirror looked like: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/For-VW-Corrado-1988-1995-Wing-Mirror-Glass-Wide-Angle-HEATED-Left-Side-1025/152577996489

You might be able to remove the bracket from an old windscreen using something like dental floss. Years ago, my one just fell off, so I re-attached it using special loctite glue: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Loctite-81706001-Rear-Mirror-Bonder/dp/B0001P0DLU You cut a circular patch, from this mesh stuff that's in the kit, and apply the glue. Hold it all to the screen for a few minutes and it's done.

Looks like Aqua blue

From your screenshot, it looks like you're viewing the forum in 'mobile view'. The forum might think your computer is a mobile device, if your screen has touch capabilities. If you click the this link you'll see get the proper desktop version of the site: http://the-corrado.net/forum/?styleid=12

Ah ok, at first glance I thought they were the hook type. Didn't realise they were multi-fitment

Those blades wont work with Lupo GTI arms
-
Yep, I've got two 6x2955426A brand new in their box, in my Corrado stock inventory :) I checked them against what's on the car, and it's the same blade on both sides.
-
I've just checked what I'm using, and I've got 2x 6x2955426A wiper blades. They are the Lupo GTI driver's side, 475mm.

Who PM'd Kevin Bacon recently about an R32 intake/silicon elbow?
joebloggsVR69 replied to Earwig's topic in General Car Chat
Using any free image hosting site is a risk, you never know how long the pics are gonna be there or if they'll change their T&C's and ask you to pay for the service.. But I just uploaded these 2 to https://imgbb.com: -

Found this pic, dimensions seem very close

I just noticed.. those dimensions are way off, I think they refer to the packaging, and not the actual light :)

I remember several people saying fog light lenses off a Volvo 240 or Saab 900 *might* fit. I think they might be these ones, made by Bosch, part number: 1305354933 http://the-corrado.net/showthread.php?14207-The-quot-what-I-did-to-my-Corrado-today-quot-thread&p=1212064&viewfull=1#post1212064 Although I've yet to see if anyone's actually used these.. The dimensions might be a bit off. The dimensions, according to Amazon, are 23.4 x 13.6 x 11.4 cm

Error messages when following links
joebloggsVR69 replied to _Matt_'s topic in Site Comments and Questions
Hi Andi, if I try to post with a url, using the bbcode square brackets, I get a PHP error. I was going to post test links, for you to see if they worked, but it would not let me create a new post. Can you try viewing Jim or Kev Bacon's profile pages? They throw an error -

I've just PM'd all the admins. I also tried looking for them on other forums, I think I found CazzaVR on audi-sport.net, so sent him a message there too. To be honest, this site really needs new mods & admins, preferably Corrado owners. I can understand that they are no longer active on here, after selling up, but this site needs people to get rid of the spammers and fix the site bugs.. -
I'm planning on replacing the ball joints on my VR6, and I've noticed that the Bentley manual says you need to remove the drive shaft from the gearbox to do this. Has anyone managed to replace their ball joints without doing that? I'd prefer not take the hub off or remove the drive shaft. Is there enough clearance to remove and replace it?

Corrado hood or bonnet release cable snapped
joebloggsVR69 replied to Roadie-Brad's topic in Exterior
You could try using an old metal coat hanger, or something, and bend a hook on the end of it. Then it's just a matter of luck, trying to hook it onto the bit the trumpet pulls against. -

I'll p/m you some pics in a little while, probably not wise to post them up in a public forum. I can't see any easy way to access the rods though.. there's just a lot of things in the way -
