  1. I might have the invoice from when I bought a pair, I'll have a rummage through the folder later tonight (Didn't realise there was a 2nd page this this thread and that RW1 had already posted the part number!)
  2. I got a pair of the DDI mirrors and they are brilliant. Very wide angle and they cover all blindspots. I'd always driven modern cars so it was a massive shock for me when using the standard mirrors! They're excellent quality with a slight OEM blue tint. I didn't bother with the old heated elements, like fla says its usually quicker to clean by hand! They are a bit pricey, but I've had them on for over a year now and no signs of water seepage into the mirror and the adhesive backing has stuck 100%. Only downside is that they sport the usual USDM mirror warning of "Objects in the mirror are closer than they appear".
  3. You can still get them from the dealers for a few quid each
  4. I think duckdown_hoodrat was being sarcastic

    Weak electric mirrors

    I have the same problem, will try taking the switch out from the door card and giving it a clean and re-grease
  6. I had 10mm spacers on the rear of my E46 for a year for some extra poke from the rear wheels. No noticable difference to handling and no short term damage to any suspension components. I think if you get hubcentric spacers at a reasonable width (i.e. anything under 20mm) then you'll be fine.
  7. Hi Tim, I'd be interested in your lightswitch so long as it all illuminates properly, my amber light doesn't light up anymore. If the lights all work then I'll have that off you pending payment. PM me with payment details mate. Thanks
  8. Saw a black Corrado near the Lookers VW i Middlesbrough. Looked nice and original on standard 16v alloys
  9. I can't believe you haven't chocked your front wheels!
  10. I have some Quantum ones on mine, You can find some on ebay, usually listed as Audi items, I think some Audi 80 or Golf mk2 ones will fit, you'll have to Google that. I have standard ride height so it actually does a good job of hiding the fact that its really high especially in rear view!
  11. Oilman, Would you recommend the 5w-40 or 10w-50 for a standard VR6 with 47k miles on the clock? Cheers

    Window Rollers

    No he means the little white rollers that run accross the bottom of the windows, they get worn out and rattle like a b1tch! I'd also be interested if anyone has any spare.
  13. I couldn't believe how quick the Revo TT RS is
  14. Was good to see another Corrado there on Speedlines!
  15. Great to see some of the Corrados from here today. It's the first time I've been to any meets/shows in the Corrado. Can I get some help putting forum names to the cars. Mine was the standard blackberry VR6 on the CCGB stand (N831 VAJ). I know C5 OEM and OSV's cars already, there was a really tidy Mystic Storm at the show and shine and there was a green Storm at the CCGB stand as well that I noticed. There's the burgundy car next to mine and a white one next to that amongst many others, too many to list. Sorry if I've missed anyone out but there was so many cars, I think a list like this might be a good way for newbies like me to associate the cars to screen names faces and make going to a show/meet less daunting and more familiar when we're looking for each others cars.
  16. Car looked awesome at the show and shine. I never really understood what the fuss was about on this thread but seeing it in the flesh blew me away today, the wheels are awesome and it honestly looked like a brand new Corrado!
  17. Saw the car today at the show and shine and I have to say, looked fantastic. This thread and images honestly don't do it justice, looks great in the flesh along with OSV
  18. Hi All, I have L.A. Noire for PS3 for sale. It's in as new condition, I bought it last week and completed it already, its such an addictive game! I paid £34 for it so I'm looking for £25 plus postage which should be a couple quid, so £27 postage included. Payment via Paypal gift please.
  19. a bit off topic but I can never view a link to the ed38 forums. keep getting an error, I've registered and can browse through the forum but can't even view a link to a post. Any ideas? *edit* figured it out, its to do with post count and the classifieds
  20. The fact is they didn't stick, which is why they were bad moves. He didn't make them stick and that shows that he's being rash and misjudging his moves. Prime example being the Webber incident. Webber gave him more than enough room yet he still misjudged it and took Webber out. Don't get me wrong, I think Hamilton is a good driver but it just seems that he's forcing it right now and maybe there's actually a sense of self doubt now after all those incidents and he's second guessing himself, who knows. What we do know is that he's making a lot of mistakes right now and seems to be pushing too hard and over driving. The Yerkes–Dodson law and the inverted U-curve will probably explain his problems right now.
  21. Has anybody noticed DC's face whenever EJ begins a question? He has a smirk prepared on his face in anticipation of EJ's ridiculous babble. Jim, did you hear Martin Brundle take the pi$$ out of DC a few weeks ago for calling Heidfeld Heidfield? Brundle would reply to DC getting his name wrong by saying "oh yeah that Nock Heidfield in the Renolt!"
  22. Haha, its not his attire that I'm concerned with, its his inappropriate bodily contact with interviewees and babbling sentences that he claims are questions!
  23. I would have liked Schumi to have got on the podium, but at the same time I was hoping JB would get past him quickly and move onto Vettel's gearbox! Why is EJ hugging Martin Whitmarsh?! *Edit* Why is Eddie Jordan on TV at all hugging everyone?!
  24. I wonder where his stupid finger is today?
  25. Well done JB, an excellent win. Vettel just couldn't handle the pressure! Its the first time he's been put under any real pressure this season and he cracked
