thanks, would be very appreciated - i did see the fb post too but i replied on here lol

pants - & there was me thinking i had posted in time ok fuzz, that would be great if you would - could you let me know either way pls m8 :)

i echo those sentiments i regretted selling my valver from the moment it drove away & though it cost me quite a lot to get it back on the road it makes me smile every day to see it once again on my drive & slowly getting back to the car i used to own as it was then

could i pls take the other set posted fuzz?

fingers crossed for you that you get a positive reply :)

bless you, thanks m8 - i will take you up on that if we do!

pleasure speak of the devil.....lol

update for all.... had an email from KUR2Y last night, ive replied & sent him the latest list & a link back to this thread :)

that is what one of the insurers told me when getting quotes for the valver recently, yet it is currently on a classic policy with HIC & i get NCB sometimes i think they just make the rules as they go as another company told me the valver wasnt on their classic list - go figure

635CSi - very nice indeed! do you mind me asking what year? my uncle has an old 3.0CS with the original number plate of BMW309L - it needs restoring but what a shape

winner thanks for that phil, handy to know appreciate all the input people :)

no - but some good work with T-Cut can do wonders ;)

just a thought EJ but have you tried advertising this on a car audio specific site? there must be forums etc for audio-philes who like these kind of things the cruise scene & show-off audio build trend is big in the US too - shipping would be expensive but then so is building something custom such as this

thanks Jim & MZpog :) i was hoping it was just the 2 clips & a connector but wasnt sure if i needed to remove the HT lead cover as well Jim - i have fancy blue magnecor leads which have the little yellow/black cylinder numbers on them & will take a pic first just to be sure ;) glad i brought a lead removal tool a long time ago lol

Hi all i have a new idle control valve to fit to my VR & wondered if any of you kind chaps can tell me if they are difficult to remove? I can see it under the rear cowling type thing but not sure what i have to remove to get to it has anyone got any tips or a guide or something that might help pls?

thanks fella i am pretty good, struggle sometimes but try to keep a smile on my face my house needs lots of work too but i tend to flick between rooms doing what is essential & what i can afford at the time. i find trying to start & finish one room at a time a bit daunting & often cant afford to do a complete room in one go. plus i also struggle with motivation coming in stops & starts i am in the midst of being diagnosed with asperger's & some days just getting through a day at work can leave with me zero energy or motivation once i get home the sunny weather & a drive in the VR pretty much never fails to raise a smile on my face & a quick whip round the clover leaf gives a very satisfactory dump of adrenaline - it is one thing i can almost count on almost every time to ease my emotional imbalance plus, in the past 3 years of house owning i have found having the time to let thoughts develop on how i would like rooms etc to eventually be has allowed me to chop & change ideas until i am happy & then commit to making it a reality. often meaning i only need to do it once we all need an escape & for some of us we choose a rado to facilitate that good luck with the thinking, let your heart lead your mind for a while & ponder on its needs & desires

do it, do it, do it!!! lol seriously though m8, do it life is too short to be having regrets that you ponder every day & miss something so much i too have only recently brought my own house, into my 3rd year now, & about 90% of my wages go on just direct debits with everything else like food & fuel out of the tiny bit left the result being that i struggle to have anything left to spend on the house restoration & as such if i have a car bill then it has to take priority over the house - i can do without carpets or a lawn mower or a shed or decking etc & concentrate on things i can improve for little money, it is amazing how an old beat up door can be transformed with some sanding & elbow grease lol it is by choice i would rather maintain the rado's - & that bit is key really, choose what you will & be happy with the choice 5 minutes behind the wheel of the VR with its beautiful sounds & i am grinning from ear to ear & loving that i am lucky enough to be able to drive one of my childhood dreams every day get it back & keep it this time! :D lol

thats the guy - what dancing too lol he brought some proper entertainment to GMG!

pls do let me know if the centre caps that come with them become redundant ;)

nice! the look like RX2's but in a 3 piece - whats the size breakdown on them?

yes cressa i have & i put info & pics on my build thread http://the-corrado.net/showthread.php?44751-g0ldf1ng3r-s-VR6-amp-1-8-16V/page17&highlight=g0ldf1ng3r unfortunatley i put the refurb'd one in the gf's storm before she sold it so i have to do another for myself this summer - another job on the growing list lol

tidy - a few of us in that area what are your packages & prices like? have you a FB page or website?

i agree m8 i used to like the crazy redneck guy who ended up leaving & then starting their own thing in the old GM garage it will be interesting to see if they can come up with builds like aaron could

yay what a lovely thing to read today - good decision m8 :D intrigued about the new wheels i am lol

me too i found it kind of funny & ironic that he left & then the 1st car he builds is being featured on F&L i was expecting an offspring series of his own
