the problem is that led's don't draw enough current to make the flasher unit flash at the correct rate , like when one bulb blows the others flash too quickly rate for mot's is 60 -120 flashes per minute i think , the resistor to increase the power draw Rob

corrados use a sender with an oil light switch built in so you remove the oil pressure switch and screw in the combined one so no "T" piece try demon tweeks on line they sell most sizes of t piece you need m10 fine taper i think but don't know what thread you sender is Rob

corrado rear seat back is narrower they use longer pins to clip into the catches at the top on mk2's so that would mean mk2 seats are too wide Rob

sounds like switch problems to me they are common to burning out and pitting the contacts inside so some funtions stop working, so when you switch off and on a few times they then work , cheapest fix is to try the switch first , ask on here in he wanted section someone bound to have one Rob

A statement on Nugget Yellow Numbers by E-Bay Seller
carpy25 replied to RallyRaddo's topic in General Car Chat
all the following is my views may be proved wrong nugget yellow was only available for two years half of "g" all of "h" and half of "j" then colour fade begin showing up so VW dropped the colour , corrados were very expensive car on the road price of my valver in 1990 was £17.500 as windows and sunroof were £500 each and mine also had the leather wheel and handbrake handle another £80 option so there were very few valvers sold and even fewer non standard colours (standard colours were red.white ,and black ) which also added to the price i was told a long time ago that there were only 80 or so valvers i've had mine 8 years ans seen more than 16 my self ,i think there were 9000 ish corrado's sold in the uk and a good guess is the about half have gone to the scrap yard in the sky now after all some are 19 years young by now all this i my opinion do't shout at me if i'm wrong Rob -
17 x7.5 et 35 on my vaver with 60 mm drop ,could space the rear out a little as well if needed pic Rob
