Looking for the wiring from the fog light to the main loom for a later model Corrado. Dont need the fog lights just the wiring but may be willing to buy complete lights at the right price.

Is this sold?

Could be. Dependent on quality etc.

Like it. Glad I never went for the tarmacs as it could have been awkward!! ;-)

Finally got the wheels I've been after for a long time. Pics tell the best stories.

Nah the info isn't in James' thread I've read it plenty. I know the ad said 268's but I thought I saw 263's mentioned and wondered if it was a typo or not. I'm still not convinced about the brakes. I don't think it's a temperature thing either. I just feel it doesn't slow the car down fast enough. Maybe i'll just have to stomp on the pedal harder!! I also don't like how the pad doesn't fill the disc. It's like the pads are too small or something. I'd like to try Brembos but afraid they will seriously limit my wheel choice. May try a different pad compound first although they still won't contact the full disc. [emoji53]

No worries Gareth. I think we're all guilty of a "temporary come permanent bodge" now and again. All fixed now though. Re: plate I'm honestly not keen on it in either position. Maybe it's cos it wasn't screwed on to a solid backing on the grill area that I didn't like with it but I'm just not sure what to do with it. Would love to just ditch it altogether. Gauges cost me half that brand new from heritage. I was led to believe they were obsolete for many years. Seen lots of people who had allegedly bought "the last set everrrrrr" [emoji53] I think they suit the cabin so well and should have been standard equipment on ALL Corrados. Although I do miss the cubby space. Paint seems to be holding up ok so far. I got some sealant on it before winter but not done a proper spring clean on it yet. No garage for me I'm afraid so it has to rough it every night. How did you guys find the brakes? I'm not overly impressed with them at all. It could just be me but I'm seriously considering a Brembo setup. Couple other q's do either of you know the make/model/specs of the wastegate and the recirc valve? Contemplating changes there too. Also can anyone confirm what cams are in? Is it 263's or 268's? Not changing those but just so that I know.

Not bad at all but I used to be a mechanic many moons ago so was confident in doing it. Great guide here though http://wiki.the-corrado.net/gauge_pod_fitting_guide.html

Ha. Are you missing it? I'm not convinced about the plate either way. It would probably be best on a standard bumper but not sure how it would affect the temps. I'm tempted to run without it all together. Wheels are a secret at the moment. Just hoping they will work out.

Got some jobs done over the last few days. Got hold of some gauges. Moved the number plate as it's annoying me covering the grill. Need a new plate but this will do for now till I decide if it's where I want it to stay. Wasn't happy with tweeters and crossovers the way they were So grabbed another pair of standard ones and modified them to hold the tweeters Much better. Just waiting for my new wheels to become available. Pretty excited about those as I feel these will always be Graemes wheels. I'll probably still keep them though! Toying with tinting the front end and top half of rear lights. Loved the "mean" look it had when James had it. Thanks for looking. Ian

Hi spotted someone looking for this car on Facebook. Last seen in NE Scotland. Untaxed and No MOT since 2012. Anyone know of it's whereabouts? Cheers.

Was just on eBay. Cant recall the seller but he has a few similar from time to time. I think it works really well.

Mot passed today. Time to get going again with this. Got a set of gauges to fit and going to get it remapped and setup properly on a rolling road. Would like to do something with the front plate but seen so many pics of it in different sizes/places and it really only looks good without it. Also think I'll get tinting the lights as I liked it that way when James had it.

I bought a leather interior from him off of this thread last year I sent a lot of money and had a similar experience for a couple of weeks but he eventually came through. Only after some strongly worded texts.

You get adjustable bosses too. Never used one but this looks like it may help your particular situation. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/BLACK-40-70mm-ADJUSTABLE-boss-kit-spacer-fit-MOMO-OMP-aftermarket-steering-wheel-/181601243109?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&hash=item2a48470fe5

Cool. I ordered a set so hopefully they'll be here soon too.

Are these a straight swap?

[emoji2]

Mine were done by a PO.

Oh well. That doesn't help at all. I'd really like one as my headlining is black. My lights been sprayed before but it's flaking off. Perhaps Annavr6 from Heritage could help out.

Expressed an interest in the other thread. I'd def be keen at the right price.

Does anybody actually have a part number for these?

I'd be interested. Price dependent obviously.

Cool. I'm on it.

I thought I read on here that VW Heritage had bought and sold the last ever available sets. I'll give them a shout anyway.
