So these would replace the factory speakers in the same locations? - Would it be worth doing if running a fairly std HU with no additional amplification? Ian.

Brilliant, PM me with what you've got and some prices. Ian. ---------- Post added at 1:31 PM ---------- Previous post was at 1:28 PM ---------- Thanks Dave, please confirm with prices - Perhaps between you and Goldie I might be able to get most of my wish list!! Ian.

After a few parts to keep up the good work that Jay started, must be in VG/Exc condition: 1) Chrome VR6 Grille Badge 2) HRW Switch, must fully light up 3) Dash Black Centre Vents 4) R/H Black Dash Tweeter Cover 5) Passenger Sun Visor, must light up 6) R/H Black Plastic Door Pocket, pref including speaker Cheers, Ian.

Hopefully the hub + bearing will get rid of the clunking noise? Ian.

Bought one of these recently after the price dropped, fits OK in the hump: http://www.conrad-uk.com/ce/en/product/853868/Malteser-Classic-First-Aid-Kit/SHOP_AREA_92330&promotionareaSearchDetail=005 Ian.

And I'm after the centre R/H one also. Ian.

VR6 | Flash Red | Gloucester Price: £2075 Description: 1994 VW Corrado VR6 for sale Tax + MOT until 03/2013 with a FSH. Mileage approx 204,700 Have recently purchased Jay's DBP Corrado so this one is now reluctantly for sale, I have owned it for the last 2 1/4 years and prior to that for 10 years by a CCGB member.I have a box folder full of old invoices and MOT's totalling many £0000's including £3400 for a Vege replacement engine and other work @ 141K in 2005, so therefore only 63K on the current one. Work carried out in 2011 included a new radiator, blue and yellow sensors, thermostat and expansion tank. New ISV and good S/H Coil Pack also.The Rear Shocks were replaced with Bilstein B4's, Bosch Lambda Sensor, both Track Rod Ends and Inner Tie Rods plus a pair of Kumho KU31 tyres on the front that have done approx 3K miles (with very good Michelin Pilots on the rear). In 2012 the Oil Cooler Seals were replaced to cure a slight leak, both wishbones were blasted/painted Matt Black then fitted with Powerflex Front Bushes and R32 Rear ones and also Powerflex Front Anti-Roll Bar Bushes - The tracking/camber was then adjusted back to factory settings. Jay Renshaw Polyprop Inserts from the Group Buy were fitted to the factory Front/Rear Engine Mounts with a Lemforder Golf MK2 Gearbox Mount fitted too along with Castrol fully synthetic Gearbox Oil (Now much reduced general movement in the drivetrain plus a vastly improved gearchange as well). Lastly a Large Bore/Polished Throttle Body with as new Damper Valve has been fitted which has improved the throttle response, nearly new Red OE H/T Leads plus "home" refurbished Front Speedlines with new centre caps all round. Other mods/improvements include: Audioscape Door Pockets with Component Speakers Red Samco Hoses OE Voltage/Oil Pressure Gauges Alpine Head Unit with 6CD Autochanger in Boot Braided Brake Hoses all round St/Steel Cat Back Exhaust with Oval Pipe Uprated Headlight Loom with brighter bulbs Thatcham approved H + P alarm fitted DG engine remap Standard Front Wipers that have had the dimples "ground away" for better operation with nearly new Bosch Blades plus an Aero Rear one. Snags: The paint is generally very good for nearly 19 years old but there is a little rust around the bottom of the tailgate, lacquer peel in a couple of places etc but it polishes up very well and attracts many good comments still. The sunroof tilts but doesn't slide and after a recent drive (not shown in pics) I had a small stone or something hole the O/S Front Fog Lamp. Slight wear to the fabric on the drivers seat bolster. I am based in Gloucester for viewings/test drives with Proof of Driving License, weekends preferable but flexible on evening viewings too if required. Please contact me if you would like any more info or more photos? Thanks for reading, Ian.

I think the list price is just under £7.00 + VAT. Ian.

So did I, was shocked to be told they were still available - Might look as good as yours one day? Ian.

Well I started last weekend from the back of the car forwards, first job was to replace one of the parcel shelf straps that had snapped and then moved onto the mirror swich as it was "dead". Jay had confirmed there was power getting to it so thought it might just need the contacts cleaning, however on removing it from the handle it literally fell apart so the spare I had tucked away come in handy and all working now. Next was the Door Pins in the B Pillars as the drivers one didn't always catch 1st time, so replaced and all adjusted. The Corrado floor mats were next on the list followed by Lupo Wipers with new nut covers whilst today I fitted an OE aerial plus new base gasket/seal and it looks much tidier now. Next stage was under the bonnet, screws and bolts etc have been replaced with St/Steel where feasible, Passat wiper cover fitted, new earth strap, battery cover, Mk3 Golf washer bottle cap, nickel plated/polished battery clamp with St/Steel bolt and new warning stickers on the rad panel. The grille had 2 tabs broken so a good S/H one was bought off the forum, whilst the old one was out I cleaned up that area and replaced the 5 little rubber grommets that sit in the recesses and now the grille sits rock solid. I'd also bought, but not fitted yet, the cover that goes in/around the temp sensors and thermostat(?) - Ordered one and had a nice surprise when I opened the box as VW had put two in there!! Heres some pics:

Thanks to both Simon Wiggs (Late Grille, superbly packaged) and Daves16V (Owners Pack), items received very promptly to carry on the improvements to the DBP. Ian.

Thanks for the pics Simon, will definitely take it - PM me your Paypal details? Ian. ---------- Post added at 10:25 PM ---------- Previous post was at 9:57 PM ---------- Payment sent. Ian.

Assuming all the tabs are intact Simon I will take it, can do either Paypal or direct Bank Transfer? Ian.

Thanks for the kind words Jay and James, it is certainly my intention to try and improve on the hard work already done - Perhaps will update after the weekends efforts!! Ian.

The red one will be up for sale very soon. Ian.

Ha Ha!! - Journey back was fine, I'm now the proud owner of Jay Renshaws DBP VR6. Have started the ball rolling by replacing/repairing a few things plus have a load of parts to collect from VW on saturday too. Ian.

Have seen it B4 but only @ work where we are on IE, I use Firefox on my home PC and never had it pop up as I have Adblock Plus enabled. Ian.

Now sold. Ian.

If you get stuck I have a very good fastener company down the road from me who could probably supply Hex Hd Bolts in A2 St/Steel - Just need the actual sizes confirmed? Ian.

They are yours then, PM sent. Ian.

Im on the M6 heading for Cheshire if that gives you a clue? Ian.

On the M5 northbound to collect my next Corrado. Ian.

Yes, £8.26 each x 4 plus postage so mine are a lot cheaper. Ian.

If you follow this link and click on the diagram (Top Right) they are Item:6 I bought them for my VR6 so should fit OK, I think they fit all Corrado's? http://www.powerflex.co.uk/products/Corrado+%281989+-+1995%29-937/1.html Ian.

No, pockets are not that deep I'm afraid. Ian. ---------- Post added at 10:01 PM ---------- Previous post was at 9:59 PM ---------- Not much of a clue but the colour is the same as one that was on our Club Stand @ Volksfest this year plus it has a leather interior. Ian.
