yeah possibly like a promotional car, dont rally cars have to be road legal ie have a number plate on? still they`re gonna have to pay!

I dunno furki mate but i`ll ask my mate when i see him, looks like the laquer thats gone on is purple though so i dont know if that makes a difference here`s a couple of pics whilst flashing at night :lol: look even more orange daytime

quick photochop

what do you guys thinks about the purple reverse lights??? they look mint at night but in the day they just look outta place.... white looks better IMO!

i got my mate at the local VW dealer to do them for me, sprayed, laquered and oven baked!! quality!!!

http://the-corrado.net/.archive/forum/viewtopic. ... 326#157326 here`s mine put on today

my new red rears lights courtesy of my local friendly dealer!!!! not sure about the reversing lights-a bit purple but i might get them changed to clear there only the red is a very good match and yes they do still flash orange

have you checked the circlip underneath the leather gaiter?? just a thought

right! i`m gonna order some TIM gauges from Demon`s tommorrow! as i said above, oil temp, pressure and battery! i`ll do a how to on fitting as soon as i get my DIGI cam back (i left it at a mates house :roll: ) if anyone has valid objections to this choice then PLEASE let me know cos i dont wanna buy crap!!! cheers ben! :)

kvwloon, i been lookin on e-bay and am tempted by Audi VDO gauges but i`d have to buy senders etc for them? demon tweeks do all i want inc senders and adapters for £80 for the lot!!!! i want ones which will do the job for now as funds are limited-but you know how corrado`s are.... they only want the best so i`ll probably have to upgrade anyway :lol: anyone got any experience of these gauges?? jimsG60, Google search of Autometer starts now!

cheeky!!! :lol: it was the Khan`s that gave it away!! anyway, well done, welcome&enjoy, and may your I WANT list be ever growing!!!!!!

is it the £9,500 one off auto-trader?? (sorry for being nosey!)

hey i`m after some gauges for my car, i`ve done some searches on here but i`m a bit confused... 1. is there many difference between makes? ie TIM and VDO 2. i`ve read about capillary and electrical gauges, whats the difference in quality/accuracy? i understand about one being on a wire with a sender and the other having a feed of oil for example 3. i`m after oil temp, oil pressure and battery gauges, are these the one`s i need? 1.8 16v, 99% standard so no boost gauges or A/F meter needed, i dont think! any help or links to othe posts/sites much appreiciated! ben

if you got your old seats it might be a case of swapping them back over for MOT time, looks like harnessess are your option for driving, but they can be quite restrictive when trying to lean forward to look round junctions for example, i think you can get some that have retractable adapters??!! check out demon tweeks for lots of motorsport options

you got no way of knowing if its early/late by grill type they could`ve easily been changed! check your V5/chassis/VIN number.... etc i`d just buy a set of springs to match that-lower it 35-40mm and you shouldn`t have too much problems!

c`mon man put some pics up before the footy starts!!! :oops:

daily drive here too! would love to keep the C in the garage for blattin` about in on weekends but its done 142k already so it probably wants to be driven who am i to stop it doing what it`s meant to?

bonkers i reckon!! but well cool 8)

i`m with both-one i took out and a family one my dad did i`ve used both and have been satisfied with them both

just keep your 15" spare in the boot, it should be fine to get you home after a puncture

here you go

dubbprince, yeah it explains it in the manual, remove interior light-it just pops out remove the two visible screws to take off the surround look on the motor you should see a slotted round piece of metal about the size of a 5p-its got a pin in the middle of it just use a screwdriver to push the pin in and manually wind the motor i`ll put a pick up in a minute

can you not just undo the whole mechansim after removing the roof lining? theres about 10 nuts on there and i dont think mine was open when i removed it! can you not open it with the manual winder behind the light /sunroof switch cover if you have to- or is your roof too bent??

IIRC the limit is or was 35 mg, so no matter what you were well over (not being arsey) i wrote off my first car due to drinking but i failed the roadside but got 34mg on the station breathalyser after being arrested had to do a driver improvement course etc ... but i was lucky to get all that i did, safe to say i dont DD as a rule, occasionaly have had A beer a driven but i dont do it any more and quite regularly boll`ck my mates when they do its all too common nowadays, and it just made me think how i`d feel if some pi$$ed person(ie me)slammed into my car we can only learn from our/others mistakes hope it works out OK for you-goodluck!
