  1. It’s got 3 of the 4 left, think I’m going to give each one a bit of glue anyway so they don’t brake off and it starts flapping about. Body shop sprayed it first, don’t know what with, It looked a bit naf so I lightly sanded it with 1000 and sprayed it with Upol satin black. Nothing reacted, time will tell how long it stays on. Front grill is a bit dodgey cause of all the bugs and crap hitting it.
  2. True, but I think it better if one is fitted or something in the thread otherwise your relying on the brass to aluminium insert thread to seal it, hopefully forever.
  3. I think I have fitted with a copper washer before though I fitted Wahler fan switch 6017.95D
  4. Fitted mine with some pipe thread Sealant. Have you had the front wings sprayed again mate
  5. I have been doing stuff but not much to report. sorted the wiring and most stuff on the hatch just the lights, glass and plinth to go on. I had an old plinth in good condition I managed to get off one of many a hatch I’ve took home. Thought I’d give it a spray upside down, it came out really well with nothing able to use it as a landing pad, it’s now ready ready to go on but I’ll wait until I’ve stopped going in the back so much. I put the wiring back in the drivers door after a bit or wrappIng repair. It is possible to do this without taking any plugs off and pull the wires into the car and back the way they came out, either way it takes a while. Next up buff the roof and sunroof. Then put the sunroof back and so on.
  6. If you are running standard induction, I wouldn’t think there’s much point as long as your fans are working on all speeds. I ran a standard VR6 fo 9 years and 30k miles without any oil temp issues. I’d go for a quality oem oil cooler
  7. Them polish parts are quality I got some last month for the new bonnet. I bet you beat me to getting them on 😂
  8. Could be the motor on the fan too
  9. Something wrong there then, I’d put a proper fuse in and see if there is power to the switch. if the switch is goosed you can get one of these mk3 controllers, the switch is basically the same just upside down on the other side. I used one to fix mine. https://www.heritagepartscentre.com/uk/1h0820045c-fresh-air-and-heater-controls.html
  10. You need to check the fuse first and then see what’s getting power. If it was the thermo fuse on the fan that went it would work but only on speed four. So I’d say fuse then the actual switch to test next. In the switch is a copper tab that may need tweaking slightly.
  11. Don’t let AP Tyres near your centre caps. I got my speedlines on for winter too, sadly I can’t use them at the moment
  12. Thanks for all your nice comments by the way guys
  13. Nothing much to enjoy so far I’m afraid. Spent Saturday going upto Newcastle way and seeing Chris, yet another tailgate to buy + a few bits. Spent Sunday removing the glass rubber and cleaning it. Gets right to the last foot and there is a nick in the rubber, lots of swear words followed. Can you believe it? I’ve more have snagged it somehow and put a little cut in it. Furious it was 16:30 on Sunday and I looked around, a whole weekend and achieved nothing and I need another bloody tailgate. Can’t even think about windscreens and glass till I get this sorted. At this rate Cressa I’m going to make your restoration look fast. Had it back nearly 3 weeks and I’ve got most of the hatch together 😂😂 pathetic
  14. Or a bar of soap from Lush. God that stuff sinks
  15. It looks the nuts. I think it’ll be strong enough as long as you don’t fire it up or drive it without the bumper irons bolted through it
  16. Are you wanting the whole system, the servo or the abs unit, not that I can help with that but it might identify what you are after specifically I suppose it’s in the title
  17. Guess what the first thought was that went through my mind when I read that. It’s a complement easy, I’m amazed buy your ability to sniff out Corrado bargains and act on it with speed regardless of needing it now or not 👍. I don’t come across many and if I do I’m too hesitant, fair play, I live in the world of ffs
  18. The Mot history doesn’t fill you with confidence
  19. You can’t get the centre caps for that
  20. Not sure about the lighting but it looks presentable, what’s it like to man handle 😉
  21. Did you get the shift knob and gaiter off of eBay Easy ? Ive seen one similar and got it on my watch list but was unsure of the fit, does it the Corrado stick ok? I suppose is the 2nd question this is the one I’ve seen
