How much for a rear upper seatbelt securing bolt, spacer and washer, a door barrel securing clip, and a drivers upper door pin rod? I know its just little things but it'd be great if I could get them! Cheers!

They are both budget products and you get what you pay for tbh. With regard to the detailer wax, its just a quick detailer at a guess, so is not gonna give you any sort of lasting protection anyway.

Dave, what is the rough turnaround (obviously taking the farce that is Royal Mail into account) if I sent you mine? I know your having trouble with returns, and as its not a daily driver I'm happy to show good will and send you mine before you start. Your welcome to send a completed shifter mech upon receipt of mine to cut down on time though mate. This won't be until next month btw, and think I'll have a Headlight Loom and some various bolts etc as well tbh. Cheers, Sean.

As title, misplaced it during interior strip out, and have MOT at the end of the month. I know its not worth alot, but hopefully someone will help a fellow member out in their time of need.............................

Except for the fact the mechanic will charge me a minimum labour charge of an hour for removing the handbrake tunnel, and fitting a little piece of metal that would take about 2 minutes! I'm sure I'll survive doing it myself, but thanks Kev.

Welcome aboard!

Done buddy.

Cheers guys, much appreciated! He's awsome! Very contented and happy, which helps no end tbh! Got the car insured today, as its been off the road at work since I got it. Bought it home ready for a good bit of work in the down time between feeds! My order arrived from AVS this morning, so all ready to go. Will update at the w.end or early next week with some pics and progress though.

I just got mine insured today through classicline (check out other post). Its gone up since the quote I got last month, but still only £241. Thats £100 excess, and all the trimmings. The NCB doesn't make a single bit of difference to them, as I questioned it when I called to set it up (I put down online that I have 5 years, but that was on the daily.) Its limited to 4k miles, but unless its a daily, I'd say thats more than enough for most!

All Corrados are OBD1, but the later models have yhe OBD2 diagnostic port. Start off by giving the throttle body a good clean as it may well be gummed up. Also disconnect the MAF and see what its like. If the MAF is on its way out you should notice an immediate difference at idle and under acceleration.

Ha ha, just read the first post, and first line again saying you'd checked out the thread, sorry!

Check wiring around the battery, and get a multimeter on the battery if you have one. Clicking suggests your battery doesn't have enough juice to turn the engine over. May be worth checking your alternator too seeing as it happened after a run.

Ooooh page two, slacking! Not really much to update atm either. This has been due to a delivery that arrived last Sunday.............................. Heir to the Corrado wealth, Jacob Ryan. Born 07/04/13 @ 22:27 weighing 6lb 13oz. As you can imagine, been a little busy, and sleep depraved since! All healthy and good though, and I'm bouncing tbf! Already have a 5yo girl so that's now family complete, and time for the snip....................:help: I have managed to make a small order for the car this week though, and all will be delivered tomorrow. Just oil, filter, sump plug and seal, a new stat, housing, coolant, a handbrake cable, slider pin boots and carrier bolts, and a rocker gasket. Should get me going at least, and I should get a little time this weekend to finish putting the dash back together. I've decided to insure the car and bring it home too. MOT is up at the end of the month, and it seems I'll get far more time to work on it if its on the drive (provided the weather remains fair). Will update with something decent in the next few days hopefully.

http://the-corrado.net/showthread.php?36117-The-Forced-Induction-20V-Thread I know there's a lot in there, but well worth the read mate. As for the turbo, if your likely to go standalone management which would involve custom mapping anyway, you'd be stupid not to fit it now tbh.

Think there's an entry point just under the ABS pump. Well there is on mine, but it wouldn't surprise me if a hole saw was used to create it tbh! That was where the feed to the sound system was run on mine before I ripped it all out anyway mate.

If it wasn't completely shot, a look in on the group buys would have been a good shout.

You won't get the kind of shine from white you would recognise when using wax's on darker colours, I'd recommend a sealant instead. Something like Chemical Guys Jetseal 109 gives good results, or Dodo Juice Supernatural Acrylic would be a good bet. Personally I prefer sealants too, although it won't give the amount a shine and flake pop for metallics, I think they weather much better than waxes and outlast them by miles. If you go for a wax, finiskare 1000p, or Collinite 476s last VERY well, and give good results.

Well done for cracking on and getting to the bottom of all your problems! Look forward to seeing some pics, start a thread in the members gallery so we can all follow progress on it. :thumbleft:

When I bought mine, it had been been probably six months since seeing another Corrado in the flesh, and I couldn't believe how small it looked! I never remembered how small they really were, but your reminded when looking at pics like this. They feel quite big when driving as well, with a long bonnet and quite a large boot really!

How much for 90mm splitter and front vw grille badge posted?

Interested in splitter too subject to pricing!.

CP4L is a sister company to ECP so all parts come from the same warehouse. Valeo or LUK as said are all Tier 1 OEM parts, and made to a high spec. Wouldn't be worried about fitting it at all mate, its a very reputable brand.

Look out on ED38, I'm sure someone will be bragging about a new purchase tomorrow night!

So can this be used instead of the LSD then, or is it in addition to?

BBS RXII Splits, or reps anyway.
