climatronic wiring-Golf from May 01.pdf319.JPG[/attachment:10b92hp6]Finally got round to sorting my camera after E38, which is where i picked up some new rims last minute before leaving sunday teatime, quick pitstop on the grass to check them out and couldnt not replace imo,would be :cuckoo: not to. Plus ma pals would blackball me if i didnt !!!

i will 2nd that,similar temps with mine and defoe want to get FMIC for mine when can

Hey eddy.h , thanks for comments, yea the G40 is nice, needs a little tlc outside, but may well be up for sale soon !! :mad2:

do you ever have anything to do with lincolndubbers. i see their post on here but they use facebook, i dont. Thinking of going to VW players on sunday if dont get to wronged sat nite!

Hey Slim, just put myself on the locator after seeing yours, there were three at our little local show n shine last year, so they are out here and one in our town so gotta recruit. Was looking at your landrover one not got as far as your current. (time disappears on here!!) :scratch:

Done, but feeling lonely way out east :wave: , i know theres two or three in my area but obviously not on here, need 2get a flyer for when i next see them. paddy

Thanks mate, tbh have been doing little bits over the last couple of months and totally forgot to update as went along even tho on here so much. had a good look through some threads inc yours as you seem to be the nearest location and trying to get in the flow now. Like what you did with your FMIC and hope to go for something similar in the future, btw your car looks great, love the colour and mods so far in and out. paddy

been meaning to update and forgot bout my gallery thread. Took to my pals work to use their ramp/lift ,removed rear wheels then one side each began to work on trying to lower,lots of huffing n puffing inc quite abit of :bad-words: !!!! and cleaning crap off threads to get the coil spanners turning bit by bit, Few bleeding knuckles between us and a while later got things moving bit easier. After taken wheels off then on again a few times before settling on a ride height(pretty low), finally went to back car off ramps only to discover the reason former owner had such a high ride. The (wagon) wheels with 215/40/17 rubbed on the springs and locking rings, so started to raise the height back up bit by bit until cleared any fouling!! Unfortunately back up to where started, so gutted. Defoe need new rims now. Anyhow got sum 5mm spacers for the rears and started again this time on the drive with a trolley jack.With the advantage of already cleaning and dropping/lifting before, took half hour to do both rears :D got onto the fronts to find really crapped up and were a pig to do, 2 1/2 hrs for these. But now car looks sensible at least, and the handling dramatically better.

any chance of getting a pair (stickers) much appreciated paddy

I'll x2 that Rob, that is such an damn nice car!! 8) It does look burgundy though :lol: Shame the pic has cropped on the forum for me :( got a hi res image you can send me? :salute: just to say sssssssssssssssssssweet car

Hey Ben, just seen your car and wheels in pics, have just bought a new set of Azev A's for my G60, What size are yours and with what tyres. My rims are 16"/7.5j thanks Paddy

Just been reading through everyones love/hates and have to say my loves are pretty much on a par with others, niggles n all. But a niggle that really grates is the water works from all manner of places after washing. and the damn fact,that within the time its takes to drive down the road after having washed or polished the car, the back end manages to become an industrial sized magnet for dust n dirt!!!!

FIB #### , private reg, Dark reddy? Corrado think VR, parked in a side street in Scarborough last wednesday. First corrado spotted since joining forum, and the other half saw it first!!

hey simon,no probs with the hijack nice to see your pics,the valver looks similar to mine which is paint code LC3U i believe. Sounds similar story with my mates G40 except he cant afford now redundant, for him to insure is 155 quid a month!!! got a quote for me and was£180 a year fully comp :grin:

Hi simon ,yea i like the colour it really comes out when clean n polished when the sun does shine it brings out the nice pearl finish. have got it dropped now so will get more pics up. The polo is my mates G40 in very rare Windsor blue, its what got me to buy a G60

Hi there, hadnt thought about lights yet but see wot you mean looking at others.First job is to drop the height of coilovers as its ridiculously high. possibly wheels next as not sure on 17", want to get good look but best handling . The main job want to do is get paintwork right, usual front end stuff but main prob passenger door is damaged with what looks like super glue spill.
