Quote from this thread: http://the-corrado.net/showthread.php?8717-How-to-remove-some-trim The a-pillar trim is easy, just remove the screw near the top of the windcreen, then pull down the grab handle and pop off the little plastic covers revealing two screws, undo them and remove the grab handle. The whole A-pillar trim will now pull off as it is just held with trim clips.

If i were you Ninja, i would familiarize myself with the buying guide http://wiki.the-corrado.net/the_corrado_buying_guide_checklist.html Some helpful stuff in that :)

Never had a lowered car before. Thought i would clear it :( Well we live and learn (And my learning was wiping horse crap of my splitter. I dont think there is a greater way to imprint it in my mind)
-
Well Ben has done most of the work for me :) I just need to give it a front end respray as it has a few stone chips. But that's about it really. And its good to be back in a Corrado :)

You have probably seen this 16v around as it was owned by Ben_Wooduk, but thanks to a VR6 coming around the corner, i have brought this from him. Thought i would share :)
-
I think i read somewhere on here that the early Rado's didnt close the sunroof.... =/
-
Not just the VR6. My old 8v did it too. Had it hooked up to the fob so i could walk away click a button and she locked all doors, windows and sunroof :)

The washer jets are heated???? whaaaa? =/
-
I know the feeling :( I hate not being in one. Driving is no fun without a Corrado :(
-
If he sells it cheap, it could be a good project for someone who knows what there doing :)
-
Ill set a bench mark. I changed the side repeaters to clear ones. Who can beat that :)
-
Dammit. The second i start looking at it it ends. Wondered why it disappeared off the website and why they never replied to my email :(

another reason to drive an old less complicated car

Thats why Corrado's employ Jesus as their airbag :smug: -
So it was premeditated unless the average kid carry's round a screwdriver (really wouldn't surprise me the way things are going)

I think the the problem with F1 is not enough overtaking and the DRS coupled with Kers is solving that. You see some great overtaking moves. On some tracks its a little too easy but they will get it right. Its purely to get tem side by side by the corner and have them battle for the position which i think is great entertainment :) And Hamilton is just wreckless......Its great :) If everybody drove like there taking their mother to church on a Sunday im sure the sport would quickly die out

Covered in Dog hair and a rattled canned bonnet. Now looks in amazing condition with only 87k on the clock (not got decent photos. only random ones on my phone). Bounces over speed humps quite nicely too :)

Not a Corrado and not my fault but had a problem with the suspension on my Mk2 Golf. after a night in the garage i drove off. Got about 5 metres and it felt like i fell through the road. Got out and my arch was on the wheel. Mechanic said, 'o dear, your suspensions just collapsed'. Peed of me takes a look, turns out he didnt even attempt to tighten the wheel bolts. Must have been in by one thread! None of my cars have ever seen the inside of his garage again!! -
