  1. See link: http://www.scifi-at-hmc.co.uk/ You missed out there Andy!! - Was a really good day out, nice to put faces to names and have a chat. Ian.
  2. Going to Crazy Dave's first then we're having a steady(?) drive up the Motorways to be there about 11.30am. Ian.
  3. Superb, I'll be at yours for about then. Ian.
  4. Thanks Andy, any chance of either late Sat AM or Sunday PM? Cheers, Ian.
  5. Prior to cleaning the car yesterday I noticed there is a scratch nearly all along the N/S of it, which has p*ssed me off. As i would like to get it back to it's original state, is there anyone in the Glos/Bristol area will a DA or similar who could try to rectify it for me perhaps this weekend (weather permittimg)? Money is tight this month as I have to tax both cars and MOT one, but I'm sure we could come to an arrangement if applicable? Cheers, Ian
  6. PM me your details and I will get a couple in the post to you a.s.a.p. - Don't need paying for them as it will only be a small amount for postage. Ian.
  7. I've joined again, hopefully have a better season in 2011 Ian.
  8. Zinc plate can be passivated different colours other than yellow/gold, clear being one of them - That is what the finish looks like to me. Ian.
  9. What grade alum oxide did you buy, you would need quite coarse to blast steel - Something like 80 > 120 grit? Ian.
  10. According to VW Spares for 1989-1993 cars up to Chassis No. 50-P-009000 they are 15mm thick and later cars are 17mm thick. Ian.
  11. I replaced mine with St/Steel ones, right thread + head etc but had to shorten them slightly - Got a couple spare if you want them? Ian.
  12. It was a direct swap, carefully remove the old one and change over the 2 electrical connectors - The only slight diffeence is the Skoda one I bought did not have the interior light staying on for 10 secs after the doors were locked!! Ian.
  13. I am led to believe there were 3 different one's fitted over the life of the Corrado, might be worth posting a pic of the one you're looking to replace? I bought one of these if it is any help: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/SKODA-OCTAVIA-1999-INTERIOR-LIGHT-AND-SUNROOF-SWITCH-/180558219641?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item2a0a1bc979 Ian.
  14. Electroplated Chrome onto plastic is a very specialised process, there are only a very small number of companies in the UK who can do it. Ian.
  15. Link to E Bay seller, as mentioned by Kip: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=170466425382&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT Ian.
  16. Hi Tom, Do you still have the ISV? - If yes, £25.00 posted? Cheers, Ian.
  17. McLaren are rumoured to have the same exhaust sytem on their 2011 car. Ian.
  18. Just looked in my spares and I have the correct one Jon- It was sold to me as working but I've never tried it. I could arrange to courier it Monday to either your home or work, say £20.00 delivered? As it has not been tried by me, if on receipt you find it either doesn't work or solve your problem I am more than happy to have it back off you and refund the money- Sound fair? Let me know. Ian.
  19. Welcome, nice to hear of another one in our area!! Ian.
  20. Did you notice these for sale Jake?: viewtopic.php?f=13&t=100746 Ian.
  21. Dug out the receipt, Part Nr 533971537 @ £9.76 each list price. Ian.
  22. Ordered it from VW, was about £9.00ish + Vat. Will post Part Nr later today after work. Ian.
  23. Is that strap actually needed? Mine fell apart! Not sure, I guess VW fitted it for a reason? The original had nearly broken at the bonnet hinge end, hence the reason I replaced it. Ian.
