I'd believe that - a custom exhaust will get you very little apart from more noise without serious changes to the engine and the intake - it all needs to be built as a system.

The Corrado one isn't cheap! About £600 cat back. They were long life and it's not unusual to see them lasting 10 years or more. My 93 was on it's original exhaust until 2 years ago, and when I replaced it there was very little wrong with it.

What's the best way of removing this section ?

The positive feed from the glovebox light is a good one to use.

Will order a set of these - I had Bosch +90 bulbs before and they were great. Does any one know if the sidelight and brake bulbs they sell are brighter as well ?

Where did you manage to get coated discs for the Corrado ?

Now have lots of switches taken apart -but I finally have the chinese switch working to my liking. I was never happy with the way it lit up and the brightness - so I did the following: - I removed the red LED completely - moved the green one to sit where the red one was to light up the bulb symbol in green - used bulb covers and switch front from an older switch to dim it make it match the existing lights Now the switch is unlit when not on, and the bulb lights up when in position 2 or 3. Perfect for what I wanr.

Well - I had the Star Destroyer model a while back - over 2 feet in lenght, there's also a Super Star Destroyer and a Death Star, with interiors. Some really cool stuff for adults who haven't quite grown up yet, even the smaller sets are really cool.

Hmmm - mine is 60K - hat to think what it's worth now compared to 3 years ago when I bought it - ah well, won't be selling in any case.

I modified one of the smaller Lego Falcons by building a full interior and detailing all the body - took me about four weeks and €150 in single parts ordered from the Lego custom shop - I'll have to dig out a few pics.

Maybe not near to most on here - Dublin 15, Ireland.

No problems with German ebay - as above, bank transfer is the preferred method, but works well. Shipping is never an issue, no tax, and they are very hones and items are very well described. I'm fluent as well, having been born there, so can help out if anyone has some questions. BTW, most of the them have good spoken and written english too, just send them a mail.

Just had a look at some of the parts on ETKA - I'm hoping that the whole bumper won't have to come off - I should be able to work through it with the indicators and fogs removed. Looking at pictures of cars with these fitted, I definitely think that they look fine on darker coloured cars like mine, but not so sure about others. I also hope that there will be enough tubing as the routing will hae to be different to stock.

Yep - it's also a different loom unfortunately, but you can splice it in. there's a small loom that connects from the switch, this needs earth, and illumination and a positive feed, then each motor takes a +/- andf a control signal from the switch rheostat.

Yep - that's the one, still available from ARZ, classic parts and even the dealer's

Thanks Pat - will call you after pay day this month to arrange order. What wiring changes are we going to need - is there a different relay ?

http://wuesthof.de/desktopdefault.aspx/tabid-75/317_view-121/categories-121 I sharpen them with a stone, and then keep them hones with a diamond steel - a few strokes before using them each time will keep them in good shape - also never pu them in the dishwasher! The Nakiri (japanese rectangular knife) is a great all-rounder, and if you get either this or the cook's knife and and the serrated slicer, you'll never need much else in your kitchen - maybe a paring knife. Bear in mind that these are professional knives, and correspondingly expensive - but they'll easily outlast you if well looked after.

Well, as an ex-chef, you can't beat a Wusthof Classic 8" cook's knife - pull that out of you bag on a dark night and you won;t have much of an argument with anyone!

Should still be able to make this work with a little bit of extra drilling. Pat - I'm willing to give this a try - what do we need to do to get the ball rolling ?

ARZ tuning have late ones for sale, als o VW Classic Parts. Do you have the adjustable lights themselves or are you retrofitting ?

All available from the dealers for very little.

Having just checked ETKA, there are two bumpers listed, one for headlight washers - so we'll need to ascertain what needs to be done to fit these, hopefully just drilling some holes.

Haven't seen any over here in Dublin for months - and I'm on the M50 motorway every day. Feels like a lonely existence for me and my C.
