Nooooo don't buy them off ebay, they are NOT the same as mine. How can I help you sir?

Yeah do that and I'll have a look :D

Not sure, I've never done this.

I'm in Sandiacre

Another one for tedman, the grill arrived lightening quick, cheers matey.

The snorkel just pushes out from the front but beware it is clipped in very tightly.

Wow that looks very nice indeed - well done.

I've been trying to sell mine on and off for the past year but can't seem to put the effort in.....................there's something holding me back. Anyhow it's staying with me :D

I wouldn't go that far Jim, yours looked pretty tidy last time I saw it.

That's great Jim, should be able to get the Rado on the road whilst using my Passat as a daily. :clap:

Could try these depending on what you want. They do car sales but also servicing etc. http://www.bobsherwincarsalesnottingham.co.uk

Thank you David.

Right I think I've got to the problem. Yesterday the battery was fully charged and the car ran perfect. I disconnected the battery overnight and reconnected tonight to find the battery couldn't turn the engine. Perhaps no current leakage then. Took the battery back to Halfords tonight for a check up to be told yep it's a duffer and the it was also pointed out that the sides of the battery were bulging indicating that the alternator was over charging causing the battery fault. Does this sound right? So I now have a bad battery and a potential charging problem. Does this mean a new alternator is on the cards too? Thanks

Thanks

I'm guessing the best place to start would be to pull each fuse in turn and recheck for leakage?

Hi all, I've established a current leakage which leaves the battery almost dead overnight. Started about 2 or 3 months back. I haven't used the car for some time but have been starting it up regularly to keep things ticking along. I've been doing this for a few months but recently the leakage has occured. The battery is a new Halfords calcium battery. The only electrical change recently was the removal of stereo and front speakers but I think the car was ok after this but I can't be 100% sure. Previous to that I had a Toad AI606 fitted (over a year ago) which has been ok. I can recharge the battery overnight and all is well when I reconnect and start. I know electrical problems can be a minefield but is there any easy way of finding the bug without disconnecting stuff 1 by 1 and retesting? Car is 1993 2L16v. Thanks for any help.

I made up a bracket up for this, just needed to drill and tap the body.

not sure but I think you need HDMI clay to start :lol:

Beware NOT all handles have the 'inside' part of the housing open, I think the later handles had this area blanked off.

Yeah removing the pin is proving to be the biggest hurdle. Thanks for the nice comments.

Yes, PM sent.

ok, don't forget to post the kit back with it.

If I repair a handle for someone it always gets posted back the the next day. If you end up buying a new handle just send the kit back and I will refund your money, it's no problem for me at all. Dave
