How does the front badge come out of a late (3 bar) grill? Just pop it out or remove the grill. Need to get it out to respray the (formerly chrome) grey plastic one satin black

Ah now that's a "Thing" as opposed to our Type 181 (see earlier photos). -
Hi matey, thanks for that but the rod and ball clip are there I think it'll be either 11 or 13 but can't see them on the list?

H yeah my ultimate aircooled (or maybe a barn-door samba) but the Notch will always be a "first love" I traded quite hard to get that! and as you can see from the photo it was slammed! The ground clearance was 3 fingers and no hyrdo's or airbags! I can see why you were put off by the indictor housings, good call! Any-one in the London area should come along to Volksfest London this week-end. http://www.vwaction.com -

Kubel... Fridolin... Henny, yeah if you were in the USA! Over here it's a Type 181 or Trekker.. Mine was ex Dutch Airforce, the plan with that was Polished 911 fuchs, 2.4l type4 engine (porsche quick) and new gear box (still had the ultra low ratio off road box so top speed was 50!, mind you it'd climb a cliff in 1st!) -

NO! A 64 splitscreen single cap pickup! Mind you, yu should have seen the look when I was driving down the M40 with a complete roof section (bottom of the windscreen up for a mate's van) off another green split in the back! Looked like a "push me pull you". :lol: -

Yeah T-3's rot especially the late (post 70) ones, ?thinner metal? they even designed "life expectantcy" into the late ones with a U shaped channel under the wing to trap mud & water... -

H yeah the number of old duffers I had come up and rail on about their old Austins! Mind you as the only badge was the Wolfsburg crest on the steering wheel it did confuse so many people! It ripped, shame I sold it before I got a timing slip out of the Pod though. -

better?? Not V8 powered. H you were closest. Had a "Built" Type3 engine. They're actually quite a light car, although at the time I was with passenger and on my way to RTTS! Was set up to be a week-end worrior on the strip and still give good road manners! Chased him to 110 and felt I proved my point! :lol: A warning, if you come across a "ratty" vw don't assume it's a heap, I've a friend who's ratter will outpace a 996 carrera4 over the 1/4 mile! now that's quick and road legal! -
merde!

On my sig.... :lol: -
Any-one else
-
Can you possibly do me an exploded boot view and numbers? I've bust the monkey metal connector between the release button and the mech on the boot and the local "specialists" can't locate a number for it!
-
off track but kind of on subject.... In mine (92 16v) if you're rolling one window down/up you can do anything with the other until it's stopped? Is this right?
-
Cheers chap, but a translated version would be helpful?
-
Quick question, any-one running 911 Fuchs? I love the look of these (esp fully polished) and was wondering if any-one's fitted them or has a list of et's etc?
-
anyone got some good clear close ups of polished Estorils so I know what I'm aiming for? Just waiting for the weather to cool a bit before going at this so I don't kill myself!
-
OK as we (almost) all seem to have a sunroof issue at some point in time and not all of us are confident enought to attack the headlining etc involved in fittinng/fixing a sunroof. I thought why not stick your name down here if you're willing to help out other 'rado owners in your area for a few brewskis.. Helpful to know where you are, and how far you'll travel. Cheers.
