  1. Andy, Again Plug and play for me too don't much like the idea of hacking VW's looms about.... (Think I see a thred forming here). I'm sure there are enough dead Golfs/Polos in the yards to source the OEM plugs, but I guess they're not really designed to be "re-wired"... And will more than happily test it for you too....

    C/L not working

    :brickwall: Do'h so simple.... Glad its a penny fix...
  3. Toffee, kick off a new "Rat-look" style over in the colonies.... Take inspiration from 50's rodders, flat paint, shiny wheels, detailing.... Go full stealth go Flat Black (use a Flat laquer) Or TVR Chameleon.... only problem is it's about £1k a litre or something mad...
  4. Mine went through on Sat with the usual "keep an eye of the front tyres" When the tester thought the GF was out of earshot he said "love the lowered suspension must keep the missus jiggling?" To which she shouted across the workshop "Yeah, until they bought out a DD Wonderbra!" He almost fell down the inspection pit! :lol:
  5. LowG, Would this help at all with NA/FI engines? Seems like a cheap insurance part..

    C/L not working

    Sounds like the Alarm... Guess it needs a trip to the fitters to be tested. Unless some-one with a TOAD can shed some light?
  7. 16/19 The one theat's Illegally parked outside the big white building's on the "Gyratory" in Aylesbury. Got gunned by a copper on the M40 in Warwickshire (Police force have a zero tollerance on speeder apparently), parked on the hard should with the driver door open! Never got a ticket (was only doing 80) but made a mental note as that's just bloody dangerous!

    C/L not working

    Sounds like either the pum or a pipe off.. Bally if you arm it from inside can you hear the pump motor in the boot? Although if they do unlock by starting the car and pressing the buttons then it sounds like the CL interface on the alarm....
  9. :cowboy: Do they also list the correct early slider ones (4-speed fan)? I can't get a replacement bulb for love nor money, and as it's a "one-piece" unit I gues they come included...
  10. Toffee, do you have any "Build" photos? :offtopic1: There's a Headlight discussion thred that could do with your pearls of wisdom as lots of us are stumbling about in the dark with candles on the front of our cars at the moment... :lol:
  11. Been looking at the Venom site and like the look on the "Supersport" exhausts, all "Made to order in Germany" but have 15 different tailpipes all available for the 'Rado. So I can be a little different to the usual "Magnex oval" if I want to be... Quite tempted by the Hartman style Upsewpt Oval... http://www.venommotorsport.com/shop/Exh ... pipes.html Question is, does any-one have one and if so what's the feedback?
  12. No thanks rather be known for building the car below :D OK "Hobo-in-news-paper-Rado"? :lol: Awsome amount of work on both cars... What lights you running on 'Toffee'? HIDS?
  13. Opens bag full of cats... Drove a stock VTR a while back and was actually quite surprised how good it was! Still wouldn't buy one due to great/Legendary Cheese eating Surrender Monkey's (Clarkson's words not mine!) build quality (maybe it was shedding bits as fast as it was accelerating), and plummeting depreciation...
  14. Cheers GIXXERUK, So the gap between the wing and teh Angel-eyes in photo 2 is down to them being early shaped lights in a late shell??

    R32 Wheels

    Hesus! Not a lot of steering lock with the OZ's then??
  16. Must get round to doing this too mine's on the Pi55 been driving round for the past year driving in a straight line, looking like I'm going round the carousel at the Nurbergring! Mind you as soon as I do it I'll probably turn left into a wall as I'm so used to it!
  17. And a lot of hard work as well I'd guess.... :lol:
  18. (Poke :norty:)Best sort me some photos of the Imolas too then Andy, need to see if Pureklass with polish them! :sunny:
  19. Could always try... http://www.night-vision-goggles-4less.com/
  20. Ok thinking about the usual headlight upgrade (as most of us do who are still using our Rados at this time of year). So the question is.... In-Pro's? Stockers? Detailed Stockers? Yellow Laminex? Blue Laminex? Other? If any-one's got black "In-pro's" I'd like to see a shot too...
  21. mk3 yeti, Have you managed to get into the boot yet? Had the same with mine, Barel would lock and unlock but when you pressed the button, nothing. Ended up crawling over the rear seats, pulling the black panel off the inside and operating the boot release that way. (pull the long rod running across the hatch) The "Monkey Metal" colar round the barrel had broken, and I managed to get another but no key so in the process of removing and fitting my original barrel I mangled the CL balljoint. But at least I can open the boot from the outside now!
  22. Hesus! Road legal cut slicks from TOYO... So anyone know what the difference between T1-R and T1-S is? Same price just slightly different Tred patter by the looks of things...
  23. OOOH! Its a "rare non-sunroof model" Wonder if there's a certain overseas forum member who's bought this as well! Maybe it's off to Italy? :lol: IIRC it's something like £1500 just to get a clutch done on these! :shocked!:
