I'd be up for a set of these! Tried to hit the buy it now but I just get an error?
-
Lad I know on my local forum is selling these if anyone is interested http://www.vagcars.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?18760-compomotive-m05-16x8

I've got a good conditon black parcel shelf, £30 plus postage if that's any good for you mate.
-
These are on Facebook, remember seeing a few people asking for these on here!
-
Looks tidy mate! Nice buy :)

VR6 Scirocco (not really) on ebay - electric recaros = £700!
borachris replied to Dox's topic in Ebay and Misc
Poor thing needs putting out of its misery :( -
Yeah but to an extent it's understandable when they're new or very good condition, when they are falling to bits and have bits missing it's just stupid!
-
I've not been able to find it mate, sorry :(
-
Maybe I was being a bit harsh but I've got a set in better condition on my car and I wouldn't value them at £75 lol
-
Did you look at the pics mate? They don't even have the rubber edge on lol
-
The holy grail of all things corrado, a set of roof trims!!!! An absolute bargain at only £75 or best offer!! BUT hold on a minute don't hit that button, they're exactly the same as the crap ones you already have fitted! The sheer stupidity of people amazes me at times, I hope the seller reads this and realises what a complete idiot he is! http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&alt=web&id=301322606245

Sorry Rob just seen this again, will check tomorrow mate!

I just gently pulled the plunger out then pressed the peddle iirc

Forgot about these mate did you get some sorted? New hoops courtesy of Fuzz:8 More to come.... -
Have you heard of Andy Outhwaite? He's pretty well known in the vag scene, co owner of ACR in croft near Darlington, absolute genius with vag wiring. I would have and should have used him for my 24v conversion but swict offered a better package as it came with a remap which Andy doesn't do.

I'd agree with the timescale comment but that's about it. He ignored calls, pretended to have phone problems. Took a voicemail to tell him I'd be driving down to see him if i didn't hear back from him, funnily he got that message straight away and called me back within minutes. He lied to me about posting my parcel, made up numerous BS courier problems and couldn't/wouldn't provide tracking info. When the parcel finally arrived I checked the tracking number on the label and it had been posted the day before it arrived not a week before like he said it had. He sent my ecu back with checksum errors that prevented the engine from running, I sent it back for him to check, he told me it wouldn't work in a corrado conversion he just happened to have in at the time. It was a very odd issue but he could fix it, apparently nothing to do with the checksum errors vcds had shown. Surprise surprise again we had courier problems with the ecu, when I lost my cool and told him I knew he was full of **** and explained how I'd checked the label on the first parcel he suddenly realised he'd got 'confused' and it was a different ecu that had got lost with the courier and mine was actually still there as he had just finished fixing it. When it finally came back it started but then cut out straight away, no checksum errors on vcds though. It was at this point he started ignoring my calls again. I bought another ecu and Andy Outhwaite de immo'd it for me, he also looked at the one Mark from SWICT had de immo'd and he confirmed the immo file was corrupt and he couldn't sort it, another local tuner also looked at it and came to the same conclusion. I know for a fact the ecu was fine when removed from the donor car as it came from a supplier I've known for years and trust 100%. What did he do to make up for the issue? Absolutely nothing!! Appalling customer service and I would strongly advise anyone against using SWICT.
-
Me and a mate have managed to bodge mine together :lol: I got swict (south west in car tech) to do the wiring and immo removal, I wouldn't recommend using them though because they made a right mess of mine which resulted in me being a couple of hundred quid out of pocket and requiring a new ECU!

Rear bumper needed (Aqua blue preferred but not essential)
borachris replied to Daveproyoyoyo's topic in Wanted
I have one in aqua, can get some pics but not until Monday, rough guesstimate of price, £60 posted. -
I've got a passat one I'll be selling, was fitted to a corrado and worked perfectly before it was scrapped. Will get an ad sorted out tomorrow.
-
Offers/swaps/part ex??
-
I might have a brand new one of these, I bought it off someone on here but never used it as I'm using a mk5 filter now. Question is where the hell is it lol I will have a look when I get a chance mate.
-
Welcome to the forum :) I'm sure you will find all the knowledge you will ever need here, and believe me your new purchase will keep you busy :lol: Looks like a nice one!
