Cheers David, great info. 8)

Thanks for the reply David, sounds promising. You wouldn't know the part numbers for either the circlip and/or the other part you mentioned would you? Cheers!

So i made the huge mistake of letting my mum use the VR yesterday... Got home from work, and found that when I try to select reverse, it struggles to locate, but eventually 1st gear engages! When i try to select 1st, then 3rd gear engages! Cant select 2nd or 4th at all. The clutch seems to be engaging and disengaging fine, so I'm hoping to rule that out. I'm hoping it's just a matter of one or both of the selector cables slipping out of position, but how do I check/rectify this? Really hope it's not a more serious problem with the box itself. :shrug: Any advice greatly appreciated as always. Moral: NEVER lend your mum your Corrado. :(

Saw them at a leisure centre in Reading last year, Josh Hommes rules! Great live band IMO

Completely off topic, but just started reading Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, so I now know where the quote in your sig comes from. That is all. :lol:

+1 Very nice surprise indeed! 8)

Yep, H4 for the Sidelights/Dipped Beam, H3 for Main Beam/Fogs. Phillips seem to get good reviews, Although I got Lucas in mine at the mo. Will prob swap them out when I get the loom upgrade done though.

I'll take a 3 relay loom then please mate if you have spare ones available? Can PayPal, or I can come and collect it to save the postage/PayPal fees? PM me when you've got 5 mins? Cheers!

Cheers for the informed replies guys, kind of broadens my understanding a little, prob gonna go for the profile 2, on the rear of the back seat, then add either an active sub, or install an audioscape sub enclosure as and when I can afford to lol! Lookin forward to getting the ball rolling finally, can't believe how hard its been finding a set of door pods! Thanks again chaps! :D Matt

Proflie 2 or 4 that is the question. Now I've finally secured a pair of audioscape pods (cheers dukest) I'm soon goint to be fitting my MB Quart Components up front. I may want to add a sub in the future, so I'm thinking profile 4, but, the profile 2 gives 75RMS per channel @ 4ohms, and the profile 4 gives 4x 50RMS @ 4ohms. So I'm inclined to get the profile 2 as this will get the best from the pair of MB Quarts i think. Plus i might be able to mount the profile 2 upfront (undertrays maybe?) has anyone done this? Will it fit anywhere else up front? I wanted to keep the boot as usable as poss so would prob go for an active sub so i can remove the lot should i need to, and I'm fairly certain the only place I could fit a profile 4 is in the boot, so i'm a little reluctant. Any ideas gents? Cheers.

:wave: :cuckoo:

Try the search mate, probably been covered before. What are you struggling with? Removing the broken one?

Haha! I can picture it! "Unclean!! Unclean!"

Ah cheers for that, I'll have a look...

Anyone else going to be following it this year? Just watching highlights of Round 1 in Ireland. Not watched it for a couple of years, now there's only one driver i've heard of! (Loeb) Still stunning viewing though...

In the region of 138bhp as I recall...

Glad it's sorted Jim! Bet you're well relieved?! :D

Rear end looks nice mate, unsure about the Corrado script though... Can't belive I missed out on owning this C by about an hour! Still I love my aqua though...

Wimp. I coulda shaved at least 2 secs off that time... :D

If that letter is for real, then all i can say is what a complete waste of time and money. Why don't "they" devote the combined cost of all the staff and administration involved in such a scheme, to actually employing more police in an attempt to stop crime from being commited in the 1st place? As a well known author and novelist says "you couldn't make it up". 2p

Keep up the good work mate! Fair play for even tackling this being as young as you are. The best resto/build thread on here for a while... 8)

Looks very OE mate, fair play. What did the Head Unit come out of?

Stunning paint.

Sounds like you don't need them anyway lol! Good luck with the multimeter... :D

Sounds like you've replaced everything you could mate, I'd be looking at the wiring loom/connectors at the motor end. Prone to corrosion in that location in the scuttle, might just be corroded connectors on the end of the loom? HTH
