  1. that does look nice. The fogs and indicators look interesting - freshens the front end.

     

    I switched to inpro projectors with an aim to improve light output, decided it needed the fogs and indicators to match. They were a bit too bling, so they received a light smoke tint, I haven't got around to tinting the headlights. I'm not convinced they will stay, I might change back to standard if I can improve the light output.


  2. The fluting on the glass is vertical so it doesn't mess things up that much, and it's still a much better cut off than a reflector housing can offer. I've been experimenting on an old set of headlights, I'm trying to make an oem looking pair of projector headlights like the Rallye had. I'm amazed at the quality of the Projectors for the amount of money they cost, you can get them for £28 on eBay now!

    Looks great! Do you have any details of how you did this?


  3. After over 4 years of ownership and spending all my time sorting mechanical issues I've had some time to tart up the old girl with new bonnet, front bumper and tailgate. There's still more to do, better condition doors to fit, and the wheels to paint, the list never ends...

    For now, she's starting to look better, here's some mediocre car park photos;

  5. Also see below for links to OBD2 conversions. If any mods are reading this please either sticky or move the very detailed thread to WIKI page, seems an excellent knowledge base!

    Thanks for the kind comments.

    Be sure to have a look at my Fusebox loom comparison.pdf link.

     

    As Swiftkid said, as multiple functions aren't working its likely to be one of the main plugs. Check your G2 plug(engine wont run without G1)and then your U1 and U2 plugs. These carry most of the information displayed on your clocks. Also check the black bar throught the fusebox is in the looked position.

    If these are connected properly everything should work except your tach which will read high. For the tach you might want to change your clocks for VR6 ones, or see here; http://the-corrado.net/showthread.php?t=88297

    If you still have problems please list the functions which aren't working.
