mine was running about 112 last night on the way home from having my schrick fitted....trouble is space is tight as i have an aircon rad so not too sure where i can fit the mocal

kev said they were ok actually. chains were tight and tensioner was pretty un worn.

amd chip is about £400 fitted then...how much is the other one that was talked about?? the UNI chip?
-
i dont think sticky tape will be strong enough to hold it as i had to bend mine slightly to fit the line of the bonnet...the reason your bonnet didnt close is probably to do with the fact it wasnt lined up properly. I didnt have to change anything else.
-
well at the moment its just with 4 sefl tapping screws...really short ones other wise your'll screw into the glass. 1st i lined it up with the grill and wings of car. then my dad used a small drill bit and drilled 2 holes on the slam panel just above the corners of the grill. fixed it there with 2 screws and then did each side into the headlight surround. I'll probably put a couple more in before i drive with it on though. Im getting the fitting guide from Kev on sunday so i'll try to scan it and post it up.

nope dont work...saw a program on it..and all the police do is adjust the contrast and colour saturation of the photo and the number plate shows through as clear as day...they then try to prosecute you with obstruction of the law aswell as your speed ticket!

jedi-knight83 replied to TomB's topic in General Car Chat
ouch....glad your ok...sounds like a nasty crash! start looking on autotrader for cars similar to yours...try to match age mileage spec etc and take a print of the details then when and if the insurance company gives you a crap pay out you have something to give back to them saying its worth more! My dad has had dealings with lots of insurance companies in the past and they all use autotrader to check the currect value of a car....obviously you can select some of the nicer more expensive examples to give to them good luck and hope your back on the road in a corrado soon!! -
i saw my first Golf Limited in person the other day...
