    Certainly does

    Thanks. I have to change the tailgate next as its rotted along the bottom seam. Then the drivers door as its also rotten along the vertical shut. All the bits Ive managed to track down in colour. (Front wings already replaced with an Ebay bargain) It will be looking like a sherry pearl jigsaw by the time I've finished.

    So its fitted with a pre PD engine? 1Z / AHU?

    It has a 1z Passat B4 engine, Decatted exhaust fitted with FMIC and remapped ECU so it runs about 128 BHP and loads of torques. Still gets 55mpg as well! I'm in the process of going VNT and bigger injectors by building an AFN clone first.

    The logos are stickers that I got off ebay. I made sure to panel wipe so that it was very clean, then sealed them onto for some protection.  I know they wont last forever but I thought it would be a nice touch

    Thanks.

    I don't suppose you have a link do you? I'm about to do the same and think it looks well smart.

    I was going to order from a seller in Germany as he has the newer version of the kit. It's a mix between OEM VW and Febi and the price is right but it's back ordered as of this weekend!

    Have you got a link please?

    Hmmm my stays nice and dry my car is parked on a sloped drive maybe that helps also have now water channel buffers  opposite side of internal scuttle trim. 

    My drive is sloped too. It still happened to mine even with those buffers in place. Worth keeping an eye on as those battery bags dont look wet even when they are sodden.

    I have one of these on my car if you don't want to mount the relays- I just pop them in the bag keeps them nice and dry. Tidy in the bay as well and protects battery tray from leaks of battery and of course protects battery contacts from elements,

    Not so useful if your car is stored/parked outside, water runs down the  channel on the wing and drips on to the battery blanket. This then absorbs the water and remains wet. The relays placed inside will eventually corrode and short out. Well they did on mine, I have since put mine in a small plastic container in front of the battery and had no issues since.

    There's a German company on fleabay that sell 4-relay, 4 fuse loom, fully waterproofed and in a box with the OE connectors, at both ends - even the ones going to the original loom - I don't know where they managed to get that one, probably 3D printed - I cut up a damaged headlight unit to connect my uprated loom. But the German one is very pricey - SC Tuning was the company I think - I managed to pick up one second-hand that was never fitted and will see if I can dig it out for some pictures. From what I remember it actually has the male connectors at both ends, where one is just wired for the sidelights - lol this thread just reminded me that I should think about fitting it some day!

    Don' suppose you have a link or anymore info please?

    Not a lot of room under a Corrado seat, I'm not sure whether there would be enough space to fit a sub unless the seats were in a relatively high position. I think you would be better off fitting a small active sub in the boot (it wont need a massive powerwire) and losing the rear 6x4 speakers for a better soundstage.
