nearly finished

got the car all prepped today, under the windscreen was pretty much ok, bit of surface rust but the cars a good un anyway, was a bit of a shit getting the old one out though, paint going on tomorrow and screen now gettin fitted on monday. Looks like its had a screen before and they had bonded the trim for the headlining to the windscreen also, so a new one of them needed also! lol

should all be done for monday, i'll post then, cheers

GB Windscreens in Edinburgh doing me a huge favour by fitting a new one this sunday for £200! mouldings costing £5 + vat and postage from www.rejel.com a bargain as most want £48 + vat. Top that off with with a fresh paintjob in porsche gt3 orange on fri and sat and i'm now a happy bunny!

slapped wrist?? been punching myself in the head all day! found www.rejel.com who list every windscreen for every car/truck except bloody rados!!! :brickwall:

Does anyone know where i can purchase a new windscreen glass that i can fit myself? Major companys want 250-350 to supply and fit and i just want to buy one loose if poss. Ta

bump

can anyone tell me why the ignition stays on in my 92 rado until i disconnect the brakelight switch?

STILL LOOKING FOR SOME HELP WITH THIS ONE Does anyone know the route the wiring harness takes before it finally connects to the fuse box? i've replaced the standard 16v wiring with vr for my conversion and i'm having trouble clipping the fusebox back in due to a big jumble of wires! This also includes the main car harness which i partially removed at the time, bearing in mind i started this 2 yrs ago and i'm only just getting round to finishing it hence the reason i've forgotten!

done some digging on mk2vr6 and it sounds like it could be the ecu isnt firing up, does anyone know what colour wire comes from the fusebox to power the ecu and to what pin on the ecu?

thanks for that i'll have a wee look there too, i take it golf and rado vr looms are different then?

isnt that included in the fuse box plugs?

just getting round to finishing my project rado which has been shelved for the last 2 yrs, it started as a 16 valver but after blowing the engine i put in a 2.8 vr AAA motor, i have plugged up all the necessary fuse box plugs but i'm left with no spark and no fuel pump(although i think i know where i'm going with that), my question is, can someone identify what the following wires do and what they should be connected too on the original valver loom. coming from engine loom there is a brown 2 pin plug with a brown/red and a red/black a green 2 pin plug with a green and a blue/red a white 1 pin plug with brown/green a black 1 pin plug with a purple/white a brown 2 pin with a yellow and a grey/white coming from the car side in the o/s footwell is black 1 pin connector black/blue in the lower o/s footwell is another black/blue but with a green plug i also have 2 wires coming from relay no 31 a black 1 pin with a red/white and a white 1 pin with a brown/white if anyone can help i would be very grateful, i'm in Edinburgh if theres anyone close who wants to take a closer look. checked for feeds to ecu today, all present and correct, going to check coil and dizzy tomorrow and also crank sensor, does anyone know what resistance's or voltages these items should produce for testing? i have a wiring diagram so know what colour wires go where. re unconnected plugs, i now know the brown 2 pin with yellow and grey/white wires is for diagostic connection, can this be connected to VAG-COM?
