jokipea16v

Thanks to shaung60 for responding to my wanted request for spoiler parts. He sent more than the parts I paid for and they were well packed. Good guy.

Right, thanks for that. Thought there would be no problem but didn't want to assume they'd fit OK. Don't understand the thinking behind the brackets and short lengths of rigid. Crap. Why didn't they just fit the longer flexis like they did on the later cars? I did a bit of searching on this site, http://www.vagcat.com/epc/ to find the longer hoses. Good to know what other cars share bits from the Corrado.

I have a '91 1.8l 16v that I'm hoping to get back on the road soon. I need to change the front flexis but really don't want to use the same type as are fitted at present. The ones on it now are the 350mm-ish hoses that have 2 female ends and go to a bracket on caliper then a short length of rigid pipe to connection on caliper. Think these are P/N 535611701. I'd like to replace them with 435mm hoses that have 1 male and 1 female end so that I can chuck away the brackets on the calipers, the P/N for these is 1H0611701 and are used on later Corrados. What I'd like to know is if there is any reason I shouldn't/can't do this, like the male won't fit into existing calipers?
