  1. I fitted my toad ai606 alarm and managed to get everything working. Although didnt attemp auto closure. I found the instructions to fit online, if you havent got it how the hell did you know what you where doin in the first place?
  2. Welcome mate, mine too was a sorry state when i got it, but starting to look very nice in my humble opinion

    Rear arch

    Im still after the passengers side rear quater, and thats after 2 weeks of searchin on here
  5. thats annoying but at least its possible, thanks
  6. Ok ive got a spare rear hatch to use to replace my broken on my corrado, only thing is that the spare glass is bonded in, does anyone know how to take it out safely? thanks
  7. Ive used these guys a couple of times before. They are good actually. They sent me out a faulty item once but they did sort it out so cant complain really. H36VDM, do you work for them? :wink: or did they impress you that much?
  8. mines around 160k and runs fine, admitadely ive only had it a few months but it also hasnt got any s/h, it doesnt smoke rattle and moan so far. when it finally does give up its a good reason to convert to the 6 pot :-)
  9. I remember seeing a website that showed loads of cool things that can be done with automotive relays. Not sure if i saw it on the Rado forum but does anyone know the website im on about? thanks
  10. Ok my cars in for a respray and just thought about removing the bonnets windscreen jets holes. Has any one done this? Im a little unsure of where to mount the washer jets after the mod, noticed mk4 golfs have them on the underside of the bonnets lip, hows this work Any other ideas? dont want the jets on the wipers themselves cheers
  11. cool thanks guys, the reason i ask is i have an idea for side indicators that may and may not work. will post the results up once ive attempted it
  12. blackcat, now thats a usefull response. The actual rate of the flashing isnt a great importance, the thing im trying to find out is the angle at which the lights from side indicators must be visible at. But those links dont say anything so i asume as long as you can see flashing when looking straight at them then its legal, what you think thanks
  13. iow_corrado_g60, i'm sorry but that doesnt really help.
  14. I know that if your car has been made after a certain year it needs to have amber side indicators but the question i need to have answered is: Are there any other rules about them, ie where they must be positioned what angle the light should be seen , the speed they flash at etc etc
  15. When Im up at my moms place the average seems to be higher due to it being in the sticks at around 98p/l Back in Cardiff its about 91p/l Sainsbury's in Kidderminster do reallly good prices best ive come across and still sell LRP!!!
  16. Lucky how the roll didnt damage the axles or anything you needed. is it my mistake or does that ralley have a standard golf front wing?
  17. just done a quick search and it sais that front and sides are bonded but the rear isnt

    Window Seals

    Got my car in the garage and the guy has broke my rear boot glass. He said he couldnt take it out because it was bonded into the boot. I thought they just used traditional seals Am i wrong? I know the windscreens bonded in but arent the side and rear glass pieces just normal seals? thanks
  19. noise could be the exhaust contracing and making a pinking noise. steering could be due to slipping PAS belt
  20. rember seeing a parking sensor setup that goes around the number plate so it avoids drilling holes into the bumpers.

    Bonnet stuck!!

    That thing in the middle of the second picture looks to be part of an alarm switch, its nothing to do with the release of the bonnet. look again
  22. Yes sorry forgot you had hanger type, no worries then
  23. i have a good condition standard VAG exhaust if you need
  24. I know about all the short cuts to search ie " AND OR NOT etc" but i get a little annoid when i keep being told to use the search when i already have, possibly i have missed a match to my problem but if thats the case maybe a link would be more usefull Deluk this convo about searching is not aimed at you btw.
  25. Well i used a ss scorpion boxter shaper full system made for a mk2 golf gti 16v, and this fitted no problem into my corrado 2.0 16v. I cant be 100% sure that yours will fit but theres a good chance that there wont be any problems I originally thought the shape of the system would be different on each car but lifted the car up and compared before taking old system off. with the tailbox its probably the easiest one to swap because its the easiest to get to if the cars rear has been lifted to get access so if you werent sure then just try it out. One guy actually told me he fitted a gold to a rado (not sure which) but he had knocking problems, i think it probably wasnt fitted right. let me know how it goes because if yours fits then this info will help others
