Mine squeaked quite a bit from the dash and then I refit one thing properly and it all stopped! Can yer guess what it is yet! The stereo!

If you want me to split the site into different cars then thats fine. All you needs is pics and a bit of text. Kinda of like a mirror version of mine, only the same site.

Just completely changed all the site. Thoughts/Suggestions on this one! If anyone wants to put up pics of their Corrado they're more than welcome. Kind of like a poor mans http://www.coupehaus.co.uk ! Unfortunately I dont have the corrado font, the pic your refering to was a jpg I found from google images that I changed. I think someone said g-man had the font??

I had one done on my previous car. Think it cost me 1 to 2 hours in labour. (depends how much the garage charges per hour) Part from gsf, depending on which one you need. 43894 CV JOINT KIT-OUTER CO VR6 8/91 > 54.00 43937K CV JOINT KIT-INNER LH CO 9/88 > 43.50 43938K CV JOINT KIT-INNER RH CO 9/88 > 43.50 45027 CV BOOT KIT-OUTER CO VR6 8/91 > 8.25 All plus Vat.

They can send you the part and prob tell you how much for fitting at a local garage. Just got to get someone to fit it then.

Ring G-Werks, prob as cheap there. Or go to http://www.gsfcarparts.com

Yes, she's a dirty girl. A dirty dirty girl!

My drives too narrow! Could only get those, but will be taking my camera with me tomorrow. Hopefully it's not chucking it down!

Pics Added.

Just got my Speedlines refurbished and put on the C! Really like them! Got them finished in Gun Metal Grey. Now got a spare set of standard speedlines in the for sale section. Edit: Pics thumbnailed - dinkus

Pick up my newly refurbed speedlines tomorrow! Gun metal grey!

At least your is consistant. Mine locks perfectly, but sometimes after its left a while, doesn't unlock the first time but does if I lock and unlock a second time! Bloody odd!

Are orbitals better or purely just a time saving device if your willing to do a proper job by hand?

Having had a good look around various engine bays at the meet yest (dubpreservation), I've decided to start to tackle my engine bay. Basically tidy it up. As it's a daily driver I can't take the engine to bits whilst I polish/chrome everything etc. As it seems much easier and still looks neat, I was wondering whether or not you'd be able to fit an engine cover off a modern engine (like the V6 4Motion) on top of a C VR6 engine? Yes, they'd be obvious modifications needed, but I'd just want it as a cosmetic cover, doesn't need to be functional. Anyone done this? I've nicked Jays engine bay as an example.

Nearly every modernish car I've driven has had the function, so when you put the car in reverse with your wipers on, the rear wiper will come on automatically. Is this a simple thing to do, or does it mean a lot of tinkering for a little mod?

Saw an early C in Robin Hoods bay a few times, appears to live around there.

I've gone from a knackered one to a new one so couldn't say. It was g-man from g-werks that told me to get that. It's all gsf sells, labeled as VR6/MK3 TDI.

Just get the rear gearbox mount from GSF. It's the same one for the Golf MK3 TDI which is harder than the standard C one. Unless your tinkering with the VR6 engine I wouldn't bother with expensive ones. Gsf only charge £23 for it.

I read the wiki, but this post was more about legality of them rather than 'how do you do it'. I wouldn't do it myself because of lack of time and a bodyshop owes me a favour, so can get them to do it. (although standard is looking better all the time).

Just had my rear passenger side engine mount replaced (also attatched to gearbox) as mine had nearly gone. Less than an hour to fit and £25ish from GSF (which G-Man recommended, cheers again!). Wasn't particulary bad before but now its silky smooth! I could move the engine by just leaning on it so thats how bad it was, I assume the gearbox had play in it too, hence the notchier change. For the sake of £25 + 1 hour labour (or DIY), I'd say its worth it! Also, the GSF mount is for the Golf MK3 TDI and is uprated compared to the standard C one.

Think I'll get a spare set and experiment!

:cry: I just want to be popular! :cry: I'm just trying to avoid any chavness on my C. Others opinions are the only think to keep me in check! Aye, at the end of the day its my decision. I am getting my speedy's done in gun metal grey this week so I am trying to be different!

Pah! I want someone to make the decision for me so I can blame them when I don't like it!

Do you think this would be a good OE+ mod or a bit too moddy? If that makes sense.

Any pics of these from further away?
