Welcome along . As said already, this is a great forum and the best place to be for all the info you will need.

Bumpy.

I'm sure you're right Jim , the ECU needs to learn . A good run will do it the world of good .

The fog is pitted rado87 . No cracks though. I looked at the new calipers, the pics don't show the arm though ?. So you get the main part but not the bit it bolts too . That's why I thought I would send them to big red and get them blasted and painted oem , new piston and seals etc .I sold the other fog for 70 but it was in great condition.

Fog light sold .

Late passenger fog light . The bulb casing release part has snapped but easily glued and will not effect the light at all . Pitted lense but no cracks . 35.00 . Early headlights , EEE CODE .A few pits but nothing serious, no cracks . 100.00 Late lenses . Drivers side is near mint , passenger side has a few pits , nothing serious. 50.00. VR crank sensor , good working condition 35.00 . Brand new Meyle front hubs , four stud . 30.00. Rear chrome VR badge good condition, offers . Rear chrome Corrado script . Black marks on the edges from years of cleaning, offers on this too please. PnP will be added to prices. Chaps, I haven't sold parts for a long time . I hope these prices are realistic. If I'm way out please let me know . I'm selling parts as I need new calipers for my VR . Kind regards, Rob .

Thank you for the reply . Much appreciated. Rob .

Years ago I bought some early headlights. Mine were in bad nick, I could not get hold of late ones at the time. Some years later I got some late lenses. The early lights are on my car . Were the casings different?, or was it just the lense ?. I need to know if I can swap them and fit late lenses on to early casings. so it will be oem . Rob

Great stuff !.

Many thanks to Cressa for the fuse box clips .

Pics sent .

Hi Brunty , I'm home but my mate still has my Mac , I can't do email on my phone as it's gone a bit umpty . You could pm me your no and I can send them that way ?.

No worries , they are in good nick for their age too.

Sorry , I saw this post and replied. I'm up north ATM till Friday . The fogs are at home . If you haven't sorted a set by the time I get back I will email you pics of them , see what you think and go from there , if that's ok .

I have a set I was going to put up for sale . One of the lenses has been removed and one of the plastic clips has broken, it just needs glueing together. They are late fogs .

I will ask for an exchange for one of the new sets I think .

Me too . I bought these as well . I will be returning them . I believe they are for the MK2 Golf .

Congrats, I take it from your signature she is DBP in colour?.

Hope all goes well for you Jon .

Apparently there are two codes for DBP as well.

Thanks Paul , I will give it a go . Rob .

I recently did mine , ask at your local decorating shop, brewers , dulux etc . If you prepare it well with a dremel , or get the stone grinding kits from BnQ and the like , the ones that fit in a battery drill, you will get a good finish . I painted mine with Hammerite from a rattle can , but you can get it in a tin and use a brush if you prefer . I hung mine up so I could cover all areas at once .

They would insure me with marker study .

Thanks chaps , I will speak to him again. I think the insurance was with market plan or something, I think they are something to do with Adrian flux as the name rings a bell .

My ins is up for renewal. I hate it !. Ringing round trying to find the best quote. Adrian flux wanted £327.00 this year , which I think is steep. The car is modified, I live in a good area, driving since 1988, no convictions. It's on a classic policy. I phoned A plan and they have quoted £148.00 . The value I put on the car was 6k .Does anyone else use them ?. Kind regards Rob
