Already tried email - he hasn't responded. Have tried to contact also but to no avail. It's really poor that this guy has stitched us up like this. :bad-words: Yeh it is, tho I must admit that in my case we both messed about for a bit :mrgreen: and agreed to let it go. However if he's popped up and said he'll settle then he might has well do it :confused4: :shrug:.

Not sure about the size for Corrados, I know that alot of people use 'Door pods', made by Audioscape (pricey). I think your prob may be more about depth? As i say not sure, door pods are pricey but worth it as you'll get a much stronger sound from decent fitment. You should find more info on the search, loads of people leave good advice on here!

Polished outers, matt centre, bling gold studs, as the last photo shows. Subtle rules. 8)

Not "poor terminology", just "utter ****". ;) ehh...it's actually more or less right!... lift coefficient = negative downforce coefficient. Car produces lift (neg df) at speed. The spolier is designed to "spoil" or reduce the lift coeff, therefore decreasing the negative downforce (lift) produced! It's the same term...just the opposite sense!....so saying the spolier increases downforce isn't actually "wrong" Ha. utter.... Ta

Bump - still not sure whether to order a mk3 one - anyone?

Oh god, not this old gem again! :roll: VW NEVER said that the spoiler increased downforce... It's a spolier, not a wing! You're right about the swirl, but it DECREASES the lift effect by around 30% by spoiling (hence the name "spoiler"!) the airflow over the rear of the car which slows the air over the top of the car reducing the lift effect caused by the shape of the car passing through air. No downforce is produced by the wing... have a look at the mounting brackets and tell me that they'd take enough force pressing down on them to make any difference when driving the car before they broke off... ;) :lol: This is exactly the same reasons the TT had to be recalled and have that nasty little spoiler bolted on... too many of them span off at high speeds due to the rear end getting light due to the lift effect... the spoiler spoilt that lift and made the rear end more stable at speed stopping costly law suits... p.s. John, not a dig at you mate, it's a topic that's cropped up quite a few times and is a common mis-conception about the effect of the spoiler which just happens to bug me... LOTS... ;) Just to stir it up a bit - surely by decreasing lift, there is a subsequent increase in downforce? :wink: Or is that just poor terminology....

Right attitude on repair, not like me... I live right by Fareham if it's the one in Hampshire, but what would I do with it then?

I'll be on to you next summer then martinb, and I will of course disclose all info.... :silent:

Deano_G60, You have a choice of whether to be naughty. By law, you should inform your insurance company of all claims, convictions, accidents or losses etc in the last 5 years. However, they mostly only keep info for 3 years, so after 3 they probably wont find out. Also, the finding out bit involves them sharing their info, which isn't as common as they'd have you believe. That means that your company insurance history is very unlikely to have been published. You should be able to find find out all info on anything you have been involved in at work, (if you do wish to tell them) as your boss or accountants should know where to get it. Please don't do it if you think it's a risk, but my company insurance history wasn't reported when I was last insured, and I didn't feel it was a risk. Also - some insurance companies will now treat company ins. as 'no claims', so if your claims were more than a year ago maybe its worth telling them anyway, for the discount. Finally - read this from my bro - http://www.the-corrado.net/.archive/forum/viewto ... ht=#256417

South coast wheels have a good workshop in Southampton, they got mine straight and smooth. Tel no. easy to find, but if your waiting til it's lowered do a full workover of everything you can get to then. As far as I know, bushes shouldn't matter, unless something else is wearing them out unnaturally? My knowledge stops about here...

Yeh aint it, what a crock of poo.
