  2. glad your getting this sorted mate, seems corrado 20vts are a magnet for idiots smashing into the back of them!

  4. cheers for the reply an they are corrado recaros ill have a look at the wires as you mentioned above
  5. just fitted the recaros out of my old corrado into my mk2 golf, when fitted in the rado all the switches worked but upon fitting them in my mk2 (albeit a few years later) the drivers seat electic tilt function doesnt work i tried swapping it for the slide switch which was working but no joy also sprayed the plugs with some isopropyl spray still nothing any ideas?

    shame to see you sell but like you say you will be back!, also i dont feel as bad now for ordering a set of comps like yours!
  8. i had this dilemma with my old 20vt corrado i was running borbet a's with the same girth and et as your brocks, i bought some wilwood 4 pots but they wouldnt fit behind the borbets without spacers which would have made them poke even more in the end i sold the wilwoods on as i was too in love with how the car sat on the borbets plus id had arch work done to get them to fit properly in the end i bought some brand new g60 calipers and ran a good disc and pad combo there not mega stopping power but was good enough i felt for my needs with about 260bhp
  9. hope this is in the right place, as above will a corrado boot fit in a corrado picking one up at the wkd and want to make sure it fits before i go? cheers neil
  10. cheers chaps and jon yeah the mk2's gettin there now lost faith in it for a bit as my rattle can bay spraying didnt stand up to the winter sat outside very well so wish id had it done properly now but you live and learn plus i was skint at the time!
