  1. Has anybody have any experience with running 15 or 20mm spacers with the standard Speedlines. Any pics would be useful.
  2. WTD: 2 x Speedline wheel caps Gus.
  3. WOW! £20 for two clips. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/CORRADO-FUSE-BOX-COVER-CLIPS-CLIP-/182273888939?hash=item2a705ed2ab:g:yI4AAOSw7s5Xg9jI
  4. Would these fit? http://www.autoclips.co.uk/panel-clip-volkswagen-10mm-hole-oem-3b0868243/ http://www.autoclips.co.uk/panel-clip-volkswagen-10mm-hole-oem-8eo-868-243/
  5. Its the clips with the Part No: 191857971. Came across this pic in an old post. http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y22/Mr_Rossy/Clipsphoto.jpg
  6. After recent electrical issue, and after removing both lower shelf trims in order to get access to the fuse box and view all wiring, I've noticed that previous owners have used make shift screws and washers and I cant get them back in, so the shelves are now sagging. Any idea if the original screws and clips are still available or what others have used as an alternative which still looks neat.

    VR6 not ticking over

    Auto electrician did all his checks and it turned to be the battery. He managed to get it started after jump start, not sure why this didn't work when I tried using my own heavy duty leads. But still wouldn't restart after removing the leads, so need to get a new battery.

    VR6 not ticking over

    Just realised I have no way of charging the battery, I've left my trickle charger at my folks place in Derby as that's where its stored over Winter. Now for the dumb Q, where exactly is the starter motor located, any pics with some pointy arrows of where I should tapping would be appreciated. This is typical just as the weather picks up again and then the car breaks down.

    Hopefully got Auto Elecky coming over tomorrow, he thinks it could be either of the following: Immobiliser Ignition switch Relay Starter motor loose connection/wiring

    Thanks guys, will focus my attention on the battery first.

    VR6 not ticking over

    Will try all these options and then probably get a auto electrician to give it a once over. Is it true that 90% of Corrado problems are electrical related rather than mechanical.

    I've tried using my spare key and alarm transponder, but still nothing.

    VR6 not ticking over

    Yep it doesn't turn over, not a sound. Its fitted with a GT Alarm.
  14. The cars been parked up for a couple of weeks and I thought I take for drive this evening and its not ticking over, all the dash lights are still coming on. Tried jump starting and that hasn't helped either. Any ideas where to start looking?
  15. Was a good day out, this was my first VW event in 9 years, surprised how family friendly they are now. Was good to meet the few people I did say Hi to, I was the one with the Sherry Pearl VR6. PS: Also tried some of this new revised BP Ultimate on the way home, I'm sure it felt better than the Shell on the way there.
  16. What are the chances of there being one of those leather restoration traders at the event, thinking of getting my steering wheel done.
  17. Why not add your forum ID's under your Reg on the hangers.
  18. Hey Tan, what brand wishbones did you go with?
  19. A-line sounds familiar, seen their name come up on other forums. Thanks, will give them a call.
  20. Looking for recommendations where I can get 4 wheel alignment done around the Solihull, West Mids area. Has anyone tried Motorserv UK on Monkspath Business Park.
  21. Trying to register and attaching my pics but keep getting message stating that I have not filled in all the fields.
  22. Any more space on the on the Corrado display. Plan to come on the Sunday only, anyone else traveling up from the West Midlands?

    Modifying late VR6 grill

    No issues, just thought the more air flowing through the better, especially on hot days like today.
